The British trailer for Christopher Nolan‘s Interstellar was posted by Warner Bros a few hours ago, and it’s…OK. It seems that at some point in an indeterminate future we lose the ability to feed ourselves (despite the huge cornfields in the trailer) though luckily Matthew McConaughey is around to pilot a mission to find other habitable worlds. […]
I stopped watching the CW’s Arrow because (though intend to give it another try at some point) the producers reinterpreted some interesting characters, such as the Royal Flush Gang, in a manner that meant that they were the Royal Flush Gang in name only, reduced to a bunch of thieves with a playing card motif and no special […]
Part 1: Send In The B-Team Looking at Marvel today, it would be easy to assume that they have always been as successful as they are. Though you’d be wrong because, before they were purchased by Disney, even before they launched their movie production arm, Marvel Studios, they were flirting with bankruptcy. To stop the […]
Scott Derrickson’s Deliver Us From Evil definitely looks like a movie to watch for. Lately everything seems so massive that every once in awhile I really welcome something on a smaller scale (though not too small. Oculus was entertaining, but almost intimate. And don’t get me wrong, I am not critizing spectacle, after all it’s a golden […]
Zach Snyder released this black & white image of Batman (Ben Affleck) today on Twitter. It’s from the upcoming Batman Vs. Superman. And it looks OK, and while I wish that Snyder had taken the photo less to depict a mood than to actually show us Batman and the Batmobile. That being said, I am […]
Otto Preminger is a directer of some renown, having directed 42 features according to IMDB. And of those 42 films, I am only aware of four: Carmen Jones, The Boy With The Golden Arm, Porgy and Bess and Anatomy Of A Murder. And of those four, I have only seen Anatomy of A Murder. Twice. […]
NBC, as part of their upcoming new season, is launching a series based upon DC/Vertigo’s Hellblazer. And unlike the last movie based on the character, this time around he’s actually British! And blond! I don’t know quite what’s going on, but I have grown accustomed to television executives doing their best to ignore, not acknowledge, the […]
Stuff You Put On The Internet Is There For Forever. Consider That Before You Make A Movie About How Small Your Penis Is Brian Spitz‘s Unhung Hero opens on two guys in a spartan hotel room in Papua, New Guinea. One’s black, and the other’s white. After a moment the black guy sits down and prepares a syringe, while in the […]
I recently did a writeup of Steven McKnight’s Locke, starring Tom Hardy and a BMW X3 for Love Your Movies. It’s one of the pithier reviews that I have written and more importantly I think that it manages to give the reader an impression of what’s going on in the movie, without spoiling it. I enjoyed writing […]
I have no idea why someone called this a ‘red band’ trailer, which usually means that there’s an excess of something (typically violence acts or salty language). That being said, it is intense. Snowpiercer revolves around a world devastated by global warming, with the last vestiges of humanity existing aboard a train, Snowpiercer. Over time, the […]
