  • @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, they absolutely are. My listed example felt like a huge cheat of a cop-out when the reveal finally came.
  • @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, I've noticed more and more lately that height sizes are fully irrelevant and they will plug in any random actor or stuntman they want for such masked appearances. I remember "narrowing down" the killer's identity in Scream V b…

  • I see @M_Balje is gracing us with an early look at the Criterion Collection cover art for this one. Splendid work.

  • It suggests he'd do this after Dune: Messiah, but Denis himself has said he only wants to do it if he's sure he can make a film even better than Part Two, so I'll be eager to see what he actually winds up lining up as his next film.

  • DR is my favorite of the lot but that early briefing scene, while looking slightly cool in some ways, does feel very stilted. More and more lately, those obviously choreographed bits of dialogue and detail have really stood out, like here when they'…
  • First look at the Bride and Frankenstein's Monster in Maggie Gyllenhaal's upcoming The Bride!:
  • It had some initially intriguing ideas - the whole idea of him making a video game out of his memories was a pretty unique touch - but the execution was dreadful and it was sorely missing the personalities of Weaving's Agent Smith and Fishburne's Mo…

  • The Umbrellas of Cherbourg After five previous tries over many years, I've finally stuck this one through to the end. It's no masterpiece to me as I've never been a fan of sung-through musicals, but wow, was the story and characters and colorful …

  • I mean, you can't really argue with what entails a box office bomb though. That doesn't mean its inherent quality or features are bad, as that's entirely subjective, but rather that it lost money at the box office, which this one clearly did. I've s…
  • Dude makes a debut here by bedding a woman, flashing his bare ass, stealing an outfit and setting a fire. That's a pretty great introduction, I have to admit.
  • TDOD is my least favorite of them all but still really wild to see what a huge financial loss it was for Disney. I'm genuinely stunned that they wound up spending around $400 million on it.

  • At least someone enjoyed it. I really dug the occasional campiness and ridiculousness of the whole thing but the final product was a total turd to me.
  • First trailer is coming one week from today.

  • Gone With The Wind Pretty good but not great and certainly not one I'd consider one of the greatest films of all time. Lovely production value and cinematography but I couldn't overcome the revisionism and insufferable characters, especially when…

  • @Dwayne, that looks like quite the treat. Red Sun was ridiculously entertaining, and sports one of my favorite casts for a Western too, like an international buffet of some of my favorite stars of the time.
  • I don't follow hockey at the level below the NHL at all so I do wonder what Macklin Celebrini brings to the table compared to other #1 picks in recent years.
  • Pens on a two game win streak? Next stop: the Stanley Cup! Oh, wait, maybe not...
  • I do appreciate the link though, might be my outlet for finally watching it soon.
  • Maybe that's my spotty memory, could've swore discussing it elsewhere ages ago and some folks said it was a bit tough to follow and had a lot of juggling characters. Maybe they were wrong. I'll try to get around to it soon then.
