I don’t think that it counts as “hugely popular” but I was so disappointed at how much I didn’t enjoy Sifu, especially with the raves it received. I felt like no matter how much I played it I never actually got better despite being at least pretty sure that I was picking up on the right things to do. I understand that

Here’s the thing: Making it as an actor in any capacity is hard as hell. For everybody who manages to book something as small as a commercial there’s hundreds, if not thousands, of people who are busting their asses and will never make it in front of a camera. Ever. The dude doesn’t have to be proud of those movies.

I know it’s the nostalgia talking, I just know it is...but I can’t help feeling like I’ll never really experience the high I had the first time I played a Playstation. Nothing feels as fresh or exciting anymore.

Dreams had such massive potential, but being a Playstation exclusive limited that potential. If it had been a piece of creative software available for computers it would have been revolutionary.

If these stories are staged, then good on them. That’s right out of the William Castle playbook. I’ll never forget seeing the first Paranormal Activity in a packed house and seeing at least five people walk out saying “Nope!” Was it staged? Quite possibly. Did it make going to the movies just that little bit more fun?

What makes the first movie work is the fact it pulls a “From Dusk Till Dawn” on the audience. It’s two movies wrapped into a neat less-than-two-hour package with a tied together narrative. It starts off as a decent enough family comedy with a cute, almost ET-like, creature at its center. The movie kind of lulls you

This reminds me of a part of the documentary “Waking Sleeping Beauty” when the team working “Basil of Baker Street” received word that executive Peter Schneider was changing the title to “The Great Mouse Detective.” Some anonymous Disney artists got together and put out a fake memo that all Disney movies would be

Ultraman could possibly take him on, depending on how he’s depicted in Shin Ultraman.

Rder can handle those weird Godzilla human hybrids from the end of Shin Godzilla.

Ah yes, the astounding true bullshit story of Frank Dux.

I had no nostalgia for Hook at all. I didn’t really like it as a kid. Rediscovered it as an adult and loved it. It affected me in a whole new way when I had kids. It’s the movie equivalent of Spielberg giving other dads a pep talk, and I’m cool with that. On top of that, Bob Hoskins and Dustin Hoffman are a damn

I dunno, my kid loves it and he’s got no familiarity with those films. I know that’s purely anecdotal but I just don’t think Young Frankenstein is funny purely on how well it riffs on its inspiration .

...El Mariachi.

It just bums me out how bitter he’s become. I can understand the root of that bitterness, but his thinking that his movies are just too high minded for Hollywood is quite frankly ridiculous. I remember in the documentary about Dark City that the first thing Lem Dobbs did to collaborate with Proyas was to inform him

Alex Proyas is a good/great director. It’s a shame that, due to the failure of Gods of Egypt, he’s opted to be a bitter cloud-yeller who targets any and all blockbusters as “killing cinema” while he himself has made numerous attempts at exactly those kind of movies.

I thought Reed’s catchphrase was “Oh, damn it, Reed! Ya done goofed it again!”

I’m not going to go on a huge rant about how SNL was “good back in my day” or any such nonsense. I’m just going to say that SNL works at its best when it serves as a vehicle to showcase the talent of its performers and it is at its worse when it puts those performers in skits that simply don’t click with their style

My parents were fine with my sister and I playing video games. I remember my mom used to let me fall asleep sometimes watching her play Donkey Kong Country, Gradius III, Super Mario World, and especially A Link to the Past (my mom is 59 and still replays that game once every couple years). When my dad died and my mom

Raul Julia is on a whole other level in that movie. The man was dying, he didn’t have to go that hard for us, but he did.

This reminds me of trying to game while living with my stepdad and just brought up some leftover anger towards him. My stepdad unplugged our playstation in the middle of the final cutscene of FF VII. His reasoning was nothing more than “Because.”
