• Try your best to watch "Dear Zachary" on Netflix

    DOCUMEN:TUESDAY – “Dear Zachary”

    NOTE: No trailer today because it offers mild spoilers I would strongly suggest avoiding. First and foremost, if you are depressed or hate crying, run like hell from this film.  If you enjoy a good cry and you obsess over sociology, look no further.  ”Dear Zachary” is an intensely unique story from the perspective of [...]

  • Ever wonder what happened to Mickey in the alternate universe?

    Friends of Doctor Who Make a Movie and Call It – “4.3.2.1.”

    Initially I thought this was a stupid “chick flick” film like a New Years Day or Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants or some madness like that. Then after watching the trailer I thought I was getting myself into a heist movie. Turns out neither were entirely true but as a whole, I was pleasantly surprised. [...]

  • Watch Killing Bono on Netflix Instant

    Let’s Jump Right In It’s Monday – “Killing Bono”

    So happy to finally stray away from the normal magnet film, but once again we’re stuck on the topic of Misfits.  Honestly, I’m not sure who reads any of this to begin with so I don’t know why I’m so apologetic. But if you read this blog at all, you should be ecstatic to hear more Misfits [...]

  • Watch - "Timecrimes" on Netflix instantly

    Just another Time Traveling Manic Monday – “Timecrimes”

    “Timecrimes” is a movie I liked that I’m having a hard time describing. It’s not a typical drama because the protagonists and antagonists are less traditional, sometimes they are one and the same, and in other cases your enemy is just time. But not like the way Justin Timberlake had to face time in “in [...]

    RED BOX RED:NESDAY – Space + Prison Outbreak = “Lockout”

    Ok, so the trailer is kind of garbage… or at least I think it’s garbage. It looks like a made for tv film that you want to miss, but perhaps that’s just the kind of film I enjoy. Regardless of how little you know about a film, there’s always a handful of buzz words that guarantee a [...]

  • Episode 1 of Indistinct Chatter

    Episode 1 – Throw out the starch!

    In today’s episode Cole and Julian spend an hour talking about movies they watched over the summer that have probably left the theaters by now thanks to disorganization and bad posting habits. Either way, I pretty much talk over Cole half of the time anyway and the volume’s a little under the weather. But here [...]

  • Detention

    Go to a red box. Grow some personality. Love your life. And watch “Detention”

    I don’t even know how someone writes a film like this. This is the most original, most pleasant surprise of a film I have seen, quite possibly in my entire life. That’s obviously saying a lot, but follow me here… This movie falls somewhere along the lines of Scott Pilgrim VS The World as far [...]

  • A Canadian at his finest moments.

    Now it’s on Netflix – “Goon”

    Couldn’t be happier to know that this treasure of a film moved to Netflix instant. Before you get your panties in a twist, let’s establish a couple of things. Yes I am aware this is Sean William Scott. Yes I am also aware that this film is Canadian. And three… it’s a MAGNET production, which [...]

What is Indistinct Chatter?

It's delayed and abbreviated pop-culture for normal people. With the increased availability of so much media, it's hard to find the middle ground. Everything is either too produced or too underground. Blockbuster films are too cheesy. Independent films are too dark and abstract. [INDISTINCT CHATTER] is here to bridge that gap.

Inspired by the subtitle - [INDISTINCT CHATTER] - we have made it our goal to not only watch and enjoy these films with you, but to provide the banter and friendship along the way. We believe films and media are meant to be discovered and that one man's trash is another man's identity expressed through film.

It's not that we love bad films. It's that we love the spark that exists hidden deep between those 82 minutes. That one line, or scene, or character that drives the creator to sacrifice life, sanity, and a handful of benjamins to bring that moment to life.

Now, we bring those moments to you...

Rent "The Guard" from Red Box

RED:NESDAY – “The Guard”

I really liked The Guard. I knew very little about it, and police comedies somehow never amuse me on paper, but about 10 minutes in, I’m glued. After checking its rating on Rotten Tomatoes, its easy to see why nearly everyone I’ve talked to knows about this movie. First of all, I LOVE Brendan Glesson, [...]

which-way-home

DOCUMEN:TUESDAY – “Which Way Home”

The concept is fascinating, but it lacked a call to action or direction for growth. More of a showcase film to a very unique and complex culture of kids train-hopping from Central America to the United States. Watch for free on YouTube if you like.

Watch "Elling" on Netflix

DIDN’T CATCH A WORD – “Elling”

“Elling” is about two patients from an institution who receive permission to take care of themselves in government housing. I think Elling’s mom has passed away recently which threw him into this new situation. Neither of the characters have any discernable disabilities, just social setbacks and difficulty with emotions which leads to a lot of [...]

Watch "Dive!: Living off of America's Waste" on Netflix

DOCUMEN:TUESDAY – “Dive!: Living Off of America’s Waste

WATCH INSTANTLY I actually watched 3 documentaries today, but could only comment on one, so I picked Dive! seeing as how it is the most original and the most experimental of the three. The other two were “Hearts of Darkness” which I had to rent from the DVD Queue and then “Forks Over Knives” which [...]
