When I read yesterday that the kibosh had been put on Hellboy III by none other than Guillermo Del Toro himself, I have to admit that I was a bit put out. And what his account lacks in detail, it more than made up for in finality. As I said, I was a bit bothered, […]
In terms of keeping ourselves entertained, there are a plethora of options available. From the Internet to video games, watching sports or the seemingly hundreds of other things we do to fill time, our entertainment options are so many that studios can’t afford to take moviegoers for granted. Which is why I see a studio […]
Can Geoff Johns save the DCEU, otherwise known as the DC Extended Universe? Let’s just say I HIGHLY doubt it. And it’s worth mentioning that I speculate out of love because–while DC characters like Batman and Superman aren’t my favorites–I don’t wish them ill, either. Which is why I find the movies released so far […]
This isn’t typically the sort of thing I write about, though as someone who’s been in more that his share of Twitter fights, I find this video fascinating. And that’s because it shows a very mean-spirited behavior in real time, though it also shows the role of etiquette, which I define as the often culturally-determined, […]
Alex Proyas is a pretty interesting director and I’ve enjoyed quite a few of his movies, particularly The Crow and Dark City (I didn’t mind I, Robot, despite its story having little to do with Issac Asimov’s story).
I am all for diversity, whether we’re talking about movies or just about anything else (especially policing, which is another discussion)…
White privilege isn’t the sort of thing that this blog tends to revolve around, but then again, since there are apparently quite a few actors that bring it up as of late–often in the worse way possible–i though that I’d do a blog post revolving around it. It’s tough to talk about things like while privilege. […]
Del Toro seems to struggle, while–how do I put this delicately–less-talented directors seem to rake in the money
It may have just been me, but looking at the trailer for Ridley Scott’s The Martian the first thing that came to mind was another Scott movie, Prometheus, which features a silica storm that looks just like the one featured in this movie. Though I am assuming that they producers are going less for hard-core […]
I just finished watching Lluís Quilez’s Out Of The Dark, currently on Netlix, and it’s a bit middling, though hardly the worse movie I’ve seen. It revolves around a family who moves to Columbia, and are haunted by ghosts. Though not particularly effective, I found it interesting for another reason: The ghosts come about because the owner […]
