What year was this film released?  I searched on imdb and found several titles under torture.

I saw this a while back and it was ok.  I liked Jones and Goodman and the soundtrack as you said but I wished it was a bit longer as I remember some plots that were left unanswered.  Anyway, the DVD that was released in the US was a producers cut and not the directors cut which had a longer run time.

If you enjoyed the story, this is actually adopted from a novel by James Lee Burke who has written a series of novels that involve the Tommy Lee Jones character.

watched a bunch of films lately

Tell Me Something 2/10  Saw this Korean film on Netflix and this bored the shit out of me.  A lot of time is just wasted by scenes just having the cops standing around and talking.  The pace of this thing is lethargic.  The ending doesn't make a lot of sense.  Only thing that stops me from giving it a 1 is that there were a couple of good scenes and that's it. Side Note:  I thought the lead actor looked familiar, so I looked at his name on imdb, turns out he was in a much better Korean film called White Night which I watched.

Arang--another Netflix korean title.  This one was actually interesting.  It's a combo ghost/thriller film.  The atmosphere is pretty good here.  Some parts  creeped me out.  Could have been longer 6/10

Back to the Future Trilogy:

Back to the Future--This one is probably my favorite of the 3.  Combines some interesting ideas with two great performances by Lloyd and Fox.  8/10

Back to the Future II--Much better than when I saw it in the theater about 22 years ago.  I understood the plot a lot better and it bookends with the first film well at least on the topic of time travel.  Elizabeth Shue was a downgrade from the actress who played Jennifer in the first BTTF.  7/10

Back to the Future III--Loved this when I saw this as a kid but when I watched it today, it didn't really do anything for me.  It's not bad or anything I just think that most of the issues in the film were kinda covered by the first two installments.  Marty pretty much takes a backseat toward the Doc-Clara romance storyline. 5/10

Good to see that this looks like it's finally going to see the light of day.  It was sort going into Chinese Democracy territory with all the rumors and all.

Regarding the album, depends what type of playing style EVH is doing on this one.  If it's the 5150 and OU812 style where it shifts toward the slower stuff then I probably wouldn't like it.  If it's closer to the older stuff or even 3 (vocals were the problem on that album) I think I might be pleasantly surprised.

I also watched a foreign horror film this week too.  Saw Frontiers which was part of one of the after Dark horrorfest dvd sets.  Mediocre film, imo.  Too much gore and the plot is over the top.  Seems to be the rage in French cinema to produce gory type of horror flicks.  I almost wish that most countries would follow the Asia lead and write interesting horror/psychological films instead of depending on a lot of blood and gore.  Now that I think about it this film kinda reminded me of Severance. 4/10

This one is actually better than the original Chinese film.  So kudos to Scorcese on that film.

I just bought the bluray set and am interested in how I view the films now as opposed to when I first saw them.  I remember liking the 3rd one the best and finding the second one kind of confusing.

Finally watched another Miike film.  This one is Ichi the Killer (2001).  Very violent.  I would describe it as a twisted super hero film.  I kinda liked some of the quieter moments in the film.  Anyway, the blood flows a lot in this film.  I don't think it is something I want to watch again but it did keep me entertained.  IIRC, I think Lofton said it was one of the weirdest films he had ever seen.

Does it play without skipping or other defect?  If there's nothing wrong with the disc I don't think you have anything to worry about.

I think TWAT would have been the best first single anyway.  It has that great guitar solo and has the best "old GNR feel" of the songs on CD.
