1.7.08: Ride to "Metropolis"!
Thread started by katiepoche at 01.2.08 - 4:15 pm

The ArcLight is playing Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" on Monday, January 7th, 2008. I've never seen it, despite my love for robots and things from the 1920s. From what I gather, it's kind of like "Barbarella," but old-timey. Black-and-white. Filmed by a German guy during the Weimar period. YES.

METROPOLIS
The ArcLight Theater
6360 West Sunset Blvd
Los Angeles, CA
323.464.4226

Ticket price is $12, or $12 if you bike there.

Meet at BikeRoWave at 6, roll at 6:30. I'm way open to route suggestions. I can't remember how we got to Bike Porn.... did we take Santa Monica?

reply


It's not just a German guy....

It's Fritz Lang. One of the great german expressionists!

Definitely a must see.

I'd compare it to Barbarella only in the sense that it is awesome.

but you better pray that it's not the '80s colorized re-release with pat benatar and freddie mercury musical accompaniment. or maybe you better pray that it is that version.



i doubt it.

WOW. That is SOMETHING. But no, this is the Fritz Lang version.

kyber, I never responded:

I was being flip. I know some of Fritz Lang's work, just not this one. "M" is one of my favorite movies. Creepiest opening sequence ever? It's definitely up there. Eek, whistling...

Yeah, M is so creepy. But it's interesting how relevant it is today.

Yeah, just the scenery in this film is enough to make the Wizard of Oz jealous.

Other possible accompaniments include recorded Orchestra or recorded Theater Organ (my fave).

are you insane? there are NO hills on this route.... ive been riding it this past week, and we all know i dont do so good on hills. trust me guys, i avoid them at all costs. it is a flat route.



WIFE BIKE

also, taking santa monica all the way means rolling on that shitty part of santa monica thru beverly hills. its super dark and dangerous.

isn't wilshire fucking horrible too?

Santa Monica to South Santa Monica to dinky ass street that runs parallel to santa monica (city center dr or something) to Santa Monica once you get to west hollywood.

only problem is you always miss the turn and haul ass down burton

Is anyone actually a member at arclight?

This is a member only film, meaning if you're not a member, you're not getting in.

Just thought i'd point that out before hand.

K, I got my arclight card way back when they opened but does that mean i'm a member or does that just get me a dollar off admission? I haven't been to the arclight in a long time so i have no idea (and i hope to be going to Missing Men anyways).

I'm not sure, that may be what they're looking for.

At any rate, you can sign up to become a member on their website. It's free.

Shoot, thanks for the heads up about the membership. I just registered, and yeah, it's free.

Meanwhile, I feel terrible and achey and terrible. I may not go. Which is crappy, I know, but I just don't think I'm up to it. Everything hurts.

WIFE BIKE, call me when you get back from Metropolis, and I will get you your grips. I got them off your old drops yesterday.

Yes. "May not go" = "not going." So don't wait for me at der BikeRoWave. But have a good ride, folks. I'll have to see that damned movie one of these days.
