The Fly is supposed to be a comedy right?

romantic comedy about fear of mortality, yes.
Wanting for Thor what Thor wants for Thor.

Haven't seen enough of his stuff but I thought Eastern Promises was a GREAT film, A History of Violence, not so much.

For any Cronenberg fans out there our very own Edgar is in the middle of reviewing a bunch of Cronenberg films at his blog, and A Damn Movie Podcast is going to do Cronenberg films for their next festival.

I don't know many people who put Crash at the top of their list of favourite Cronenberg films.
-Le Chiffre: You changed your shirt, Mr Bond. I hope our little game isn't causing you to perspire.

-James Bond: A little. But I won't consider myself to be in trouble until I start weeping blood.

It was between The Fly and A History Of Violence. I went with The Fly, but that could easily be changed.

Well, one other person voted for it, so I'm not alone!

I'm not a fan, although I would like to see eXistenZ at some point.

I voted for that one... should probably change it to The Fly but i really do think eX is great.

Naked Lunch is my favourite, Eastern Promises and A History of Violence are better films, but favouritism wins.
