I bet they'd change their strict policy on the hominid protection if they ever had the chance to see my vest, see my vest, made from real gorilla chest.

I preferred it too. The first season had Malvo, who was as mystical and elusive as your epitomes of pure evil get, while the second season grounded its villains in the society, but as a result they felt more like Malvo's knock-offs, dangerous but devoid of his chilling aura. The show wanted it both ways, making the…
One shouldn't forget the big role that Andrew Sarris played in borrowing those ideas from Bazin and other Cahiers writers and injecting them into popular critical discourse. Before his book on American directors, there was little variation as regards the structure of accepted canons and the consequences flowing from…
"I really believe there is a 16-year-old girl inside of every man, and I wanted to make The Neon Demon about the 16-year-old girl inside of me”
He got H.R. Giger in all the wrong ways.
>Ultimately, it just has to have that spirit of, from a writer’s point of view –not a filmmaker’s point of view – just coming in and writing the shit out of it as something you want to see. That people are going to get their tickets three months in advance and it’s going to be treated as a summer movie, not just…
The Last Seduction is without a doubt my favorite film of his… It's certainly the best Linda Fiorentino film I've seen and arguably one of the best neo-noirs about diabolical and nearly omnipotent femme fatales (its main strength is that it's wicked and morbid in equal parts). And the main theme by Joseph Vitarelli…
The original Dirty Harry has such crisp colors. Unlike The French Connection (which rightfully holds the title of one of the most crushingly depressing cop movies in history), its palette doesn't match its somber mood. The city is supposed to look scuzzy, not pretty and filled with sunlight! I think it was filmed with…
Watched Red Rock West. I expressed my opinion of the film yesterday in the 'How Was Your Pop-Culture Weekend' thread, and it hasn't drastically changed since — I think the film is tailored to Cage's subtle side, and his borderline amusing emotional sincerity is meant to disrupt the typical noir narrative of an…
It doesn't help that the film was made almost entirely with the help of CGI and is being released at a time where the public is starting to get tired of CGI.
My go-to answers to that question usually are eXistenZ and the two Crank movies, which have the benefit of not being based on any pre-existing property.
I'm reading Duncan Jones' twitter right now and boy, does his enthusiasm for the Warcraft film show. He doesn't seem to regard this project with cold professional remoteness, he's more like a fan who's got a once-in-a-lifetime chance to try to do justice to the thing he likes. I'll be sorry for him if the film turns…
Red Rock West is a great Nicholas Cage film, a hit-and-miss genre film and a poor film about gun-toting, deranged Texans. To address the latter point: Hopper's character comes off as too much of a grinning, hee-hawing lunatic, which is both fitting for a film where J.T. Walsh is relegated to the unusual position of…
High-Rise feels like a two-hour music video that is somehow both too fast and painfully lethargic. It clearly ignores some of the common conventions of narratives concerning self-contained societies on the verge of collapse, but doesn't offer much of an alternative other than opulent slow-mo sequences and Tom…
Looking at the picture above, one can easily gather that one of the key reasons why the movie sucked was because the Thing had an unusually wide thigh gap for a man made of cosmic orange rock.
This…is disturbing.
In a different world, 1991 would become the great start for a promising R&B career.
As someone who adores Jim Carrey's send-up of crass cultural appropriation in "Imposter", I absolutely love "Ras Trent".
With a timeline this detailed, you must be only a couple of predictions away from pinpointing the exact date of our inevitable apocalypse.
