I honestly think that this latest The Avengers: Age Of Ultron (wanted to type ‘Luton‘ for some reason) trailer is the most cohesive yet. Unlike past trailers each character gets an introduction, as well as a bit of the spotlight. We see a bit more of Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and they look pretty awesome. […]
This is sort of neat. It’s a motion poster based upon Netflix’s upcoming 13-issue series Daredevil, where we see Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) turn into Daredevil. I should also mention that it’s not the red suit–they’re keeping that under wraps, but it’s pretty cool nonetheless. I also want to say that I am not going […]
Yeah, I didn’t believe it either, till began to think of Christopher Nolan’s Batman movies, starting with The Dark Knight Rises backward, and John M. Chu’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation, which I am currently watching on Netflix. As much as I hate to admit it, Chu captures action much better than Nolan, which almost feel like sacrilege to […]
I like this motion poster. Why, you may ask? After all, all you see is Matt Murdock/Daredevil (Charlie Cox) looking at the camera. Well, on one level, you’d be correct, after all, it is just Cox just looking at the camera. But there’s more to it. Look at it again and take a glance at his expression. He […]
“Apparently, No One Told Director Tommy Wirkola That Sometimes Too Much Is Just Too Much.” Have you ever known a person that you enjoyed being around, despite that they always seem to try way too hard to be the center of attention? You may like them as an individual, but wish that they would just tone […]
When Jeph Loeb, head of Marvel Television, said that Marvel’s Daredevil would be a more street level interpretation of the character, he wasn’t kidding. The trailer looks gritty and nothing at all like Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. or Marvel’s Agent Carter. I think that it’s neat that so far every Marvel series each has its […]
Alexandre Aja is one of the most consistently interesting horror directors working today. His Maniac remake–which he wrote with his writing partner, Grégory Levasseur–was excellent, and the work he did direct, such as High Tension (a fascinating movie that irritates the Hell out of me–in an Usual Suspects kind of way. It’s a long story), The Hills Have Eyes […]
I don’t quite know why it is, but I find myself listening to a lot of Doug Stanhope lately. I first heard of him from his concert, Beer Hall Putsch–available on Netflix–and from there I found a lot of his podcasts and concerts on Youtube. He’s hilarious, though more importantly, he’s a comedian with an actual point […]
“The Producers Of The Interview Should Consider The Sony Hacking Fortuitous Because There’s No Other Way Such An Otherwise Middling Movie Would Receive So Much Attention.” When I first learned of all the hullabaloo over Sony Pictures’ The Interview, the first thing that came to mind was that if it weren’t for the hack, there’s no way the […]
Trace Slobotkin‘s 2004 movie, Serial Killing 101 (otherwise known as Serial Killing 4 Dummys) is a shockingly–”shockingly” because it looks relatively cheap– entertaining movie. Visually, the problems are due to the cinematography of John P. Tarver, who’s lighting seems to wash out virtually everything it touches. Which is a pity because once you get beyond that, the movie […]
