looks really good

9/11/2007 11:30:56 AM

we heard Ian Curtis kill himself again

in your bed.

9/11/2007 11:51:59 AM

he does...every night in my dreams...

9/11/2007 12:51:00 PM

Love has torn us apart
It's a part of me a part of you in time we're falling apart together.

9/11/2007 12:57:54 PM

OH DAMN!

9/11/2007 1:56:35 PM

this thread has officially made me bust out 'waiting' to finish the day at work

9/11/2007 4:50:48 PM

Damn that looks good. Goosebumps!

9/11/2007 7:15:18 PM

i dont get how ian deserves a movie. sure they had some good songs, but give me a break.

9/11/2007 7:16:25 PM

It was the start of a new movement in music, kicking off Factory Records and influencing countless bands. Plus he died at the height of his career, making for great cinema. Sid had his own movie why not Ian?

9/11/2007 7:25:44 PM

i'll be seeing this

9/11/2007 7:27:18 PM

Sid didnt deserve a movie either. He was a hack junkie with no talent. Dood was a waste of flesh.

9/11/2007 7:28:42 PM

i agree that sid did not. Ian, while youre possible right definitely at least has more cred to a movie than sid

9/11/2007 7:38:07 PM

Sid's movie wasn't really about the music tho...could have been Requiem for a Dream, the prequel.

9/11/2007 8:00:23 PM

does some stupid ass high tech stealth fighter deserve a movie?

9/11/2007 8:23:14 PM

i see what you did there

9/11/2007 8:24:23 PM

i love how this great got hijacked by some thursday n00bs.

gg

9/11/2007 10:10:27 PM

LOZL

i was a TWW reg over a year before you registered, foooool! (jaydee)

9/11/2007 10:15:07 PM

it doesnt really count as hijacking if the OP participates

9/11/2007 10:15:16 PM

wow i have no idea what you guys are talking about. this movie looks awesome. if you don't think so, that's fine, more seats in the theater for me.

9/13/2007 11:24:06 AM

i know who you are joel buddy. we're old friends.

i called you and jamie n00bs cause this is a joy division thread, not a movie about a thursday song.

im being silly

9/13/2007 12:07:12 PM

you lil silly goose

9/13/2007 12:46:27 PM

9/13/2007 1:43:33 PM

zing

9/24/2007 9:19:40 PM

9/24/2007 9:21:12 PM

can't wait!

9/24/2007 9:32:55 PM

some where in Chelsea.

im a bastard

9/24/2007 9:42:47 PM

they were just a british rip off of ZZ Top

9/24/2007 11:19:17 PM

^ i've always thought them more a rip off of interpol.

damn i'm jealous i have to wait another week.

9/25/2007 12:05:13 PM

^ Does not compute....invert circuit overload!!!

9/25/2007 8:21:51 PM

^^ ??????

9/25/2007 9:19:07 PM

it was good.

go see it

oh and apparently all of the live music was played by the actors and from what I could tell it was. It sounded great. They should go on tour b/c i would go.

[Edited on September 26, 2007 at 8:22 AM. Reason : !!]

9/26/2007 8:20:34 AM

awesome. at least you didn't say it's a disappointment. as for a reunion tour, i seriously doubt peter hook would be on board. but if the movie gets enough acclaim he might change his mind.

^^ it was a joke.

9/26/2007 8:36:09 AM

no im saying the actors should just go on tour.

b/c they played in the live scenes and sounded huge.

9/26/2007 9:04:36 AM

9/26/2007 9:15:00 AM

wow~..really nice trailer , cool soundtracks..but where can i watch this in raleigh?!?

9/26/2007 1:43:53 PM

finally saw it. and it's amazing. a buddy snagged it off the web for me, but i will be going multiple times to the theater to see it...that is if they ever release it in more than 3 american cities.

11/26/2007 10:18:32 PM

Galaxy Cinema's getting it soonish.

11/26/2007 11:04:42 PM

I look down on this movie solely because it's going to inspire a whole new load of bad covers of "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and "Blue Monday."

11/27/2007 4:07:00 AM

ha. i'm kinda with you on that now. i wanted it to get big just so i could see it. now that i've seen it i want it to stay small so i don't hear daughtry covering transmission or see target replicating unknown pleasures shirts.

11/27/2007 8:50:42 AM

Opening Friday at Galaxy Cinema. Showtimes are 1:15, 4:00, 7:10, and 9:40.

I really hope some people come out and see it...it's totally bombed nationwide, even by the standards of an independent movie. If people don't come see it, it might end up being a one or two week kinda thing.

12/17/2007 6:53:35 PM

yeah it came and went here a few weeks ago

i missed it

12/17/2007 11:47:52 PM

i've only heard bad things about this movie

12/17/2007 11:55:58 PM

http://www.metacritic.com/film/titles/control?q=control

There are some pretty positive things. It looks great.

12/17/2007 11:59:37 PM

stuck_flex and i are going

12/18/2007 8:33:23 PM

was good, but a bit biased. deborah curtis made look like a real cunt.

12/21/2007 10:06:29 PM

I really liked the harsh contrasts with the black and white in the vein of old Joy Division footage and photos and there were a few good bits of acting but overall the dialog felt flat. I guess I was expecting Ian to be larger than life but in the movie he was a child caught up in the consequences of his own decisions and stupidity like so many kids today. Kept feeling like the Ian on the screen was not the Ian that gave us so many insightful songs. I really need to read that Deborah Curtis book before I watch this again.

12/21/2007 10:42:26 PM

That's pretty funny, actually. I read that she was a producer and wrote the book the movie is based on. Good to know she's honest, I guess.

12/22/2007 8:07:37 PM

will it be showing in galaxy after new year?

12/23/2007 5:25:31 PM

We're keeping it at least through Thursday, but we should have some idea soon.
