- Alanna Raben talks to filmmaker Omar Rodriguez-Lopez about his new film "Los Chidos" and touches on the At The Drive-In reunion. Shot in Austin, TX at the Driskill Hotel during SXSW 2012. Sorry about the audio, lost my windscreen earlier that week during sxsw. It's more about what he's saying than how it sounds though :)
Omar Rodriguez brings Puerto Rico and Mexico together for the world 🇵🇷🌐🇲🇽
A lot of people seem to have love/hate opinions towards omar, haha. point is, he is no doubt a very intelligent and creative man.
Who be hatin?
I'm puerto Rican half american and omar is a cool dude. Guy is really knowledgeable. Good guitar player at the drive in.
Just had to remind myself why I love him
Thank god for reddit i finally saw los chidos today..what a beautifully shot and grim film..it was brilliant and shows how omar really is underrated as fuck as a film maker
how did you find it
He's the finest nerdy looking guy ever..he honestly looks like a Puerto Rican Napoleon dynamite lol
come back to watch again after 10 years, time flies :')
what a great interview!
is he doing an impression of L from death note ?
I don't know if it's the metaphorical "come down" that he's implemented into his life but, this is the most human interview I have ever seen him do. It's so inspiring to have great artists like Cedric & Omar sort of be born before your eyes every time you engage them.
plus what he said about advertising is very, very true
hell yeah
Omar is so great. His eloquent intellect, along with his use of the english language surpasses even professors, yet he is self taught. And english is his SENCOND language. but god damn, he needs to call me.
grey pvc he cant speak for shit, he can't go a sentence without saying "y'know" multiple times, in what world is that considered eloquent?
Omar putting on for the Puerto Ricans. Proud half Puerto Rican over here 🇵🇷🫡
one doesnt. until theyre released on DVD or however may be. i sure wish one could
The man is a genius.
what a swell guy this fella still seems to be
And anything that gets in the way of that I have to treat like a dagger pointed at my heart
what a fine ass interviewer
amazing... powerful ideas, bring out the truth
Fucking genius
I'm gonna keep building obelisks! Just kidding, great interview.
omar for pres
why is he so cute aaaaaaaaahhhHHhhh
woah nelly, woah
Human existence in general, his life.... is a independent product, dependent on the natures form, bounded with its reflective sides. For example, like a book, or any other product,... and during this bit, human over goes horizons in an infinite way, as he lives and perceives; and then it ends, and a life of a human being cuts off. Human is aware of his restrictions,... and he is not afraid of reaching his last breath in the structure of the book, matrix. The point of this.... is not fear, but the development from these formal nature restrictions. It is advisable to create not one, but many forms of these divisions, as many "books" as possible, while you live, for them to lose their power of myth for a human being, and then a human can extract from himself, the alien which is bored with a human view on life. Existing in a duality format, limit, human must use it to get out. Make a resolution about and from this transparent dual medulla. Bias of human life is ubiquitous.
Bro qué diferente es cuando habla inglés
She's hot
Whew, yeah
Find someone who looks at you the way this girl looks at Omar
the way he says latinos is pretty funny
yea omar go get them bad to the bone
Stay away from /mu/. It'll tear your soul apart.
Once upon a time
Somebody say to me
(This is a dog talkin' now)
What is your Conceptual Continuity?
genuine genius. i agree with everything he says about men, if only i were as poignant.
The chick got kind of awkward at the end but Omar managed to keep the convo going very well
ahahah i love how he start all from nothing..!
she is not listening...!
omar somewhat agreeing with that one statement that all men are rapists is bullshit. That was aggrevating to hear. I think he just says stuff like that to gain girls trust to maybe get with them, like his singer. Its an angle i accidentally worked years ago and decided it was bullshit. the whole "OOO look how much i dont like racism and sexism". Well, most people don;t like those things. Not being racist or sexist isn't a competition. Good for him that he is neither, but whatever
that's not the statement he made... it was about "every man is a potential rapist", which is completely true, just like every woman is a potential rapist and every human is a potential mass murderer... it's a vague general statement that on the Surface seems to have radical implications to catch people's attention... you gotta listen, people
@@Gollas4k i can make the radical statement that the sky is brown but it doesnt make the statement true and in fact, most people will dismiss the other things I have to say due to the ridiculous nature of my initial statement.
I agree. I’ve heard a few different interviews from Omar. He says things like they are absolute truths, but he fails to (or doesn’t care) to see things from different perspectives. His punk roots might expose him to certain types of ideologies (and rightfully so) but he really needs to see the larger picture and other ways of thinking rather than what he’s used to.
Mmm, he's pretty cute... Surprised.
Want to sell an interview? Put a sexy woman in front of him! Heh jk. But seriously.
I think it's a film about how shitty mexican television programming is.
His intellect is entirely pretentious and incongruous with his actions and the way he's treated people. Yes he "smart" in that he's emotional, creative and has a fairly high verbal IQ but it's also important to him that know he's smart. He really needs to examine the world less and himself more.
what has he done?
@@gonerkid I’m guessing this person is talking about the way he’s dealt with band members over the years. People like to paint him as the “bad guy” in those situations but in reality there’s a lot more nuance to it than that.
that chick's so daft, she just looks completely overwhelmed
He is indeed great but he uses two words to much -You know a billion times- and that doesn't make him that eloquent. But don't get me wrong, he is great.
Body language
Really I am not sure why Omar wanted to take the feminist route....I am pretty sure it was to impress the chick who he was obviously stumbling over himself with. Still mad love for Omar.
he took a feminist route because he is a feminist and los chidos is a feminist movie
You think that all that he has said just to "impress the chick"? geez, grow up...
a troll interviewing an animal? Music in general is losing.
