The Master

[MarkGrace]

This is the film I'm most looking forward to this year and the trailer just came out today. Unfortunately it doesn't show a heck of a lot yet, but I'm sure we'll see something else before the movie's release in October.

HELL YES! I've been waiting for this for a few years now.

I'm a huge PT Anderson fan.

I can see he's going to use a similar background track as There Will Be Blood. I found it distracting at first, and I didn't love that aspect, but it grew on me after seeing it the second time.

I like a whole bunch of directors, but if I had to pick a current favorite, it would probably be him.

Jonny Greenwood did the OST for Blood and has again done it for The Master.

My favorite director + my favorite member of Radiohead = :rockon1:

Hopefully this OST doesn't get disqualified at the Oscars. And it shouldn't, because unlike Blood and Norwegian Wood it's not based on a work he was previously commissioned to do by the BBC.

I am so excited for this one. PT Anderson is without question my favorite director.

Interesting, I was not aware of that. I thought it had a Radioheady feel, actually. And I didn't like it for the same reason I don't like a lot of Radiohead. I just feel that style is jarring and irritating to my senses, not pleasing. I'm softening on Radiohead, but they're still not high on my list.

Hey, Phoenix is back. I was just wondering yesterday if he was still acting.

I agree that there's not a lot going on in this trailer, but I am intrigued.

Apparently Tom Cruise was given a private screeing of this today and Travolta will do the same before release as well. Interesting.

I've watched the trailer about a dozen times now.

Was hoping to hear a new section of music but this uses the same one as the first teaser.

What's up with that? Something to do with Scientology?

Yeah. The story is compared a lot to Scientology.

By the way, my boy's name (he's coming in a couple months) may end up being Paul Thomas ______ (his middle name being my first name). My last name is not Anderson however.

Never mind..

I'm as big of a Paul Thomas Anderson groupie as exists. Can't wait for The Master.

CUF...where PT Anderson is the greatest director in the world.
CB...where Christopher Nolan is the greatest director in the world.

Andy Greenwald just said Anderson's career is becoming a "shadow history of California" and started weaving together certain aspects of his films and how they relate to defining elements of Southern California. It was pretty interesting.
