RZA, GZA, Bill Murray
Renting Jim Jarmusch's Broken Flowers on Lazy Snowy Sunday made me wanna rewatch Coffee & Cigarettes' surreal diner sequence with (now touring) Wu-Tangers RZA, GZA, and their caffeine-fiend waiter "Bill Groundhog-Day-Ghostbusin'-Ass Murray." If you've never seen, you're in for some serious delirium.
RZA, GZA, & Bill Murray in Coffee & Cigarettes. (WIN MEDIA)
From the C&C Soundtrack:
The Stooges - "Down On The Street" (MP3 Link Expired)
Originally off the (recently reissued) "greatest rock-and-roll record ever made" according to Henry Rollins.

that scene in coffee and cigarettes was defintiely the best one.

Both classic movies- Bill Murray really got robbed this year in the Oscar race.

Rollins had an excellent piece on Funhouse in one of the very early Spins. Made a big impression on me in my formative years.

Gorillaz also gots a new single called "Bill Murray". Anyone got the hookup yo?

"Down On The Street" makes me want to throw my computer through a window and firebomb buildings downtown.

Hey. I watched Broken Flowers yesterday, too.

I just saw Broken Flowers last week and enjoyed it. C&C was nice as well. I really liked the Waits/Pop scene. My favorite Jarmusch is Down by Law, which also stars Tom Waits.
Score = 0
i love, love, love coffee and ciggarettes (especially the bill murray/wu tang, steve coogan/alfred molina and cate blanchett scenes). but that's because it was the perfect jarmusch film in that i don't usually like his films in their entirity - rather, i like scenes, bits or characters - and that certainly is what i found with broken flowers. some of the characters were awsesome and a few scenes were really funny or poignant or whatever, but i don't think i'll remember it as an outstanding film.
Score = 0
Coffee & Cigarettes is without a doubt the worst movie I've ever seen. If you pretend to like it, you are a hipster who is trying way too hard. I personally wanted to kill everyone involved, even though some of them are my heroes. On a positive note, it did confirm my suspicion that Tom Waits is a total jerk.
Score = 0
i am upset that i've never seen coffee and cigarettes. i plan to remedy this in the near future, however. thank you.
Score = 0
Coffee & Cigarettes is the kind of pretentious dreck that you should get out of your system in film school. Paul Thomas Anderson did that (he made a film called Cigarettes and Coffee way before the Jarmusch film came out. Coincidence?).
And I know he'd been making it since the late 80's, but still. It has absolutely no merit as a theatrical release.
Although, the Coogan/Molina scene was good.
Score = 0
what i hate are hipster haters who post on hipster websites to show how hip they really aren't......
wtf?
jim jarmusch is my main man!
Score = 0
The Murray/RZA/GZA scene was good, as well as the Molina/Coogan. But by far, I enjoyed both the Cate Blanchett and the Rice/Mead segments the most.
But I can't forgive Jack and Meg for the Tesla coil disaster.
Score = 0
that wu tang/bill murray scene was good? am i missing something? if that was one of the best scenes in the movie then that means i wont be seeing it.
bill murry still rules though, and i still want to see broken flowers.
Score = 0
the only memorable scene in c&c is tom waits vs. iggy pop. (also: this win media is broken two-thirds of the way through... right?)
Score = 0
Daaamn... that don't sound too good, Bill Murray.
