This trailer for Bong Joon Ho‘s Snowpiercer turned up on the Interwebs a few hours ago, and it’s interesting for what it doesn’t show more than watch it does. By which I mean, action is emphasized heavily in virtually every scene and very little else (though the actress whom I assume is Tilda Swinton with false […]
A large part of my enjoyment of Joel Schumacher‘s The Lost Boys came from the music it featured. Schumacher always had an eye, or should I say an ear, for matching popular music to his productions, and The Lost Boys was no different. The soundtrack contained some great songs by artists like Gerald McMann, Echo And […]
Let’s be clear: Peter Yates’ Krull isn’t a particularly good movie, but it is an awesome one and easily deserving of a remake to correct the problems–which I will go to in a moment–that are there.

Speaking of sharing, tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, and I wish everyone the best in the upcoming year, especially those that are working hard, but somehow earning less… Or those individuals that, despite their best efforts, can’t make it home […]
