Seems to me you're pretty fucking gay.

I'd agree with this. Because there is basically nothing else to concentrate on - literally: no change of scene, no other characters who are not voices or, in one case, a brief face on a tiny phone screen on a video - there's nothing I think to reward subsequent viewings. Still, for what it was, I thought it was pretty great. But yeah, definitely not something you would watch twice.
You could try docus and dramas on Napoleon. I watched a few: think one is called Napoleon and Josephine. There's also The Charge of the Light Brigade, and surely other, older type movies.
Absolutely. Two great twists near the end. Heart rending, and yet, in its way, totally satisfying. Glad the writer/director didn't cop out at the end.

Ever seen the original Dutch film "The Vanishing"? That also didn't cop out like the American remake did.

I felt like whether he (this is your chance to stop reading because I'm not feeling like spoiler tags) lived or died would have felt like a cop out either way. The combination/fakeout approach subverted that.

Dark and depressing endings are a cliche of their own these days. I'm guessing you know that happy endings that tie things together are cliche too. The ending teases the latter and follows through with the former, and in doing so manages to not be a cliche.

I've seen and love The Vanishing more, but I was talking about Buried.

Paprika is one of my new favorite movies. It's so so nice and gay and I love everything about it. I wish I could see it for the first time every time

It was allright. Some of the ship scenes were confusing and a couple of them made little sense to me, but it was fun none the less.
