Soooo, funny story about me watching your video here. I work at a cafe and we get to play our own music there, and today was my turn to play music. As I went on my lunch break I was delighted to watch this video while having a smoke. Little to my knowledge, a glitch happened where instead of music, your video stared playing out over the speaker. So as I got back I realized what had happened and just started to laugh so hard. So I hope you found some joy in knowing that 40 plus people tried to study/work while listening to you just talk about what movies you own. I really hope someone got a recommendation out of it

Karsten PLEASE Make a Top 20 or so of your favorite movies of all time. You've said "Climax" , "Fantastic Mr fox", and "Synechnode , New york" are your favorite movies. It would just be so cool to see.
Hello Karsten - really looking forward to you watching and reviewing Harakiri, it's such a great film! And Kobayashi is a brilliant director - Samurai Rebellion is also excellent (featuring a Mifune/Nakadai duel). The Human Condition is one of the greatest films ever made, it's 9 hours long though so it is a serious undertaking. Thanks for doing what you do!
Love seeing dvd collections, and from one of my favorite RU-vidrs. FMF was my first criterion 5 years ago, but didn't get hooked on collecting until this year
I like that you don’t care as much about what your collection looks like versus what’s actually in it. Too many movie buffs only buy shit to put on the shelves to impress their friends but you actually love and use your dvds. I keep a DVD collection still in the time of streaming because I know all too well how without physical media, certain works can become lost
Hey Karsten, I don’t know if you have a record collection, but if you do I would be interested to see it. Hope your doing good man love you and your vids
Can’t wait for you to watch The Celebration! As someone who also loves Red Rocket, you should check out the criterion for Take Out, which is one of Sean Bakers earlier movies, it’s great
such a movie person type of trait to just buy movies to not watch and put it on the shelf lmaoo i ve got like 30 movies i still havent watched either on my shelf
Literally yesterday I found Crumb and the Fanny and Alexander box set blu-rays at my local record shop for $12 each. Crumb is 100% the best documentary I've ever seen, glad I finally own it. Also, this made me feel a lot less shitty for not yet watching everything in my own collection!
So, this independent cinema about an hour away from where I live is doing a yearly screening of the Fanny & Alexander television cut around Christmas times which, fun fact, actually was finished way before the theatrical cut, but wasn't shown until a year later because no theaters would show a 5h 22m movie. So, in a sense, the director's cut is actually the original cut. It is also the only version I´ve seen of Fanny & Alexander. Apparently the theatrical cut is streaming now on a local streaming service. I think I'll watch that one too, once Christmas gets closer!
Hmm, didn’t see any Australian movies in there, some really good stuff from the 70s. I would suggest “Wake in fright” (also called Outback) from 1971. I think it’s right up your alley. Also “Walkabout” from the same year
You've never watched an Antonioni film? 'Blow-Up' is probably his most accessible, 'L'eclisse' is my favourite, I suspect you might favour 'The Passenger' but if you are really feeling adventurous perhaps 'Zabriskie Point'!
