In a word: Awesome.
I’m always a fan of movies that stay true to the original story. I read the tpb editions of DC: The New Frontier a few months before the dvd came out on the advice of a friend who swears by this story as stongly as he does the work of Alan Moore or Frank [...]
An open letter to M. Night Shyamalan:
I consider myself a fan of your work. I have seen every one of your movies in the theaters, including the truly awful Lady in the Water. Every time I see a new preview of your movies, I think to myself: finally, this one will be good. I think [...]
What can I say? I’m a sucker for the high gloss action movie’s with super powers. Jumper, newly on DVD, is one of those guilty pleasures. I’m even going to role-up a character like Griffin (played by Jamie Bell), meaning that my character will be able to jump, for an upcoming game that colovillis will [...]
While in Middleton, WI this weekend seeing friends and hiking, we couldn’t resist seeing the fourth installment of Indiana Jones: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Our friends were kind enough to buy the tickets in advance so that we did not need to show up hours early and stand in line. [...]
Southland Tales is one crazy movie. It was so crazy that I was not able to completely follow it all and at times, I was utterly lost. However, I stuck it out. I wanted to know how it all would end. The amazing thing is that the ending makes sense. I didn’t think that it [...]
I just watched the first Hellboy movie again this morning while balancing the checkbook. If there are comic book movies that have been done right, I think that this is one of them. I like what was done with the mythology, which is based on my favorite short story writer’s Mythos, H.P Lovecraft.
Ron Perlman is [...]
I don’t know how I missed this one in the theaters. It is a gun-slinging action packed master piece that examines the essence of what it means to be human. I was in the video rental store looking for something set in the future, the far further. I wanted something with space ships and space [...]
I’m disappointed that I didn’t catch The Golden Compass in the theaters. The special effects and animation I bet were wonderful on the big screen. I would have like to have seen the airships, well the zeppelin flying into the city bigger than life.
What I liked most beyond the gorgeous animation was the idea of [...]
Richard B. Riddick (played by Vin Diesel) is my all time favorite antihero. He is an unapologetic badass that is in it to win (or at least find peace and be left alone). He is a monster, a killer, a heartless and cruel character of the night that has been gifted (or cursed) with the [...]
Casshern is based on 1973 Japanese animé. What I love about Japanese movies and fiction is the blending of all genres. This movie has Steampunk, Cyberpunk, and Biopunk. The mix is so complete that you as a watcher, I just bought it all. I was in the movie from minute one.
The visuals are amazing brilliant [...]
