I'm glad the article mentioned the film adaptation of "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" but I feel it needs to be reinforced: This is an impressive directorial debut from what was at the time, a man in the final stages of proving himself to be a solid A-list actor (remember this was only 4 years after he played…

FUN FACT: R. Kelly's "I Believe I Can Fly" was released in 1996, the year after Michael Jackson released "You Are Not Alone" which was written by R. Kelly….the thing is ….they are basically the SAME SONG. Next time you hear one and the chorus comes on, sing the lyrics to the other and they fit perfectly.
Welcome home everyone, feel free to roost where you like.

DOPE! Always love to see when Drunken Master II gets a shout out! I love that movie to death. That and Donnie Yen's Iron Monkey from '93 comprised the sure-fire "intro to martial arts cinema" double feature for my daughter.
I haven't seen it myself, and I don't want to come across like I'm trashing it. Just wanted to point out how thinly veiled the "official" statement was. I'm sure WB's confidence is waning after his most recent attempt at writing/directing/acting. The consensus appears to be that it's not a bad film, just not a good…
Just wait for the Kanye single to drop! They're lining it up for release the same week. "I'm Beauty AND the Beast NI**AAAAAAHHH" Kanye up in that yellow dress with Kim covered in fur. Dem beats gonna be DOPE.
That's the only song from Pete's Dragon you remember? But what about Poddamaquassy, no, Paquamasoddy, no, no, Passamamassy
Uh, Quoddamapoddy, p…p…Passamadaddy
q…q…q…Quoddamapassy…
In completely unrelated news, "Live By Night" directed by Mr. Affleck and brought to you by the good people at Warner Brothers is currently sitting at 10M domestic on a 65M budget and has a 32% on RT.
Hindsight is always 20/20, but hopefully that upcoming project of hers based on the obscure french folk tale "La Belle et la Bête" can generate some interest. A bit of an indie but word of mouth could push it to a wider release. *fingers crossed*
Yeah, that definitely was good and is a great addition to Seabiscuit and War Horse if anyone is looking to have an Equine Marathon. But, and this may be just me, Horses are difficult to portray as emoting on film….unless of course you give them some peanut butter. I appreciate the suggestion though, ElectricSheep…
I'm prepared to be raked over the coals for this, but…..I can look objectively at a film like "Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey" from 1993 and see TV budget production values, terrible script with eye-roll inducing puns and blatantly transparent emotional manipulation and yet STILL get a lump in my throat when…
I may get lynched for this but, give it to Joe Johnston.
I concur, not at all. Have you heard he has a predilection for grabbing the cats of attractive women? Seems a bit odd if you ask me.
So, in conclusion…
I know I'm late to the game, but I just want to sincerely thank you for this article! I've been a huge defender of "Returns" since its's release. It's not a perfect film, but none are. My main point when discussing the film is how Superman, in comparison to other popular heroes, has an overabundance of strengths…
