DVD REVIEW: RULES OF ENGAGEMENT – SEASON ONE
MCLOVIN STRIKES BACK
I didn’t see Superbad until a few weeks after its theatrical bow, and – whether it was the expectations and hype being too high or the fact that I wasn’t seeing it in a packed theater with a raucous audience – I sadly left the theater underwhelmed. To this… Continue reading
RUN, TRAILER, RUN
Between the ace usage of The Fratellis’ “Chelsea Dagger”, the appearances of Simon Pegg and Hank Azaria, and the random slapping together of scenes without any sort of voiceover or narrative, I was quite intrigued by the initial teaser for Run Fat Boy Run.… Continue reading
TOUCH MTV FILMS, THEY’RE SICK
The first time I saw a promo for HBO’s Flight of the Conchords, I was sorely tempted to buy a ticket for the “Man, HBO’s Sunday nights are fucking done” train. After exploding with a long string of landmark pop culture touchstones, it almost seemed like a… Continue reading
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: UWE BOLL (BLOODRAYNE 2)
Uwe Boll is happier than any man has a right to be. The Teutonic wonder of directing carved 20 minutes or so out of his busy schedule to talk with me, and while we went all over his career and his critics, I was struck by how gosh darn plucky the guy seems.… Continue reading
SCREENING: DECEMBER BOYS
The screenings are coming fast and furious, and speaking of coming fast and furious…adolescent boys. Daniel Radcliffe plays one of 'em in his "breakaway from Harry Potter" flick December Boys, and yes, some onscreen virginity is lost. In between, he… Continue reading
SCREENING: IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH
Ok, folks…this one's a rather hot, just-in bit of niceness. In the Valley of Elah, despite Beaks' lukewarmness, is a fairly well-regarded piece of personal and political turmoil courtesy of one Paul Haggis, the guy behind Crash. Normally, I go in much… Continue reading
THE LEGEND OF UWE BOLL
I’ve rhapsodized at length about the virtues of Dr. Uwe Boll* and he never lets me down on one particular trait: Tenacity. Fresh from corralling a crew featuring other Teutonic wonders Ralf Moeller and Til Schweiger on Farcry, the good doctor has acquired the… Continue reading
WATCH THIS TRAILER KICK THE BUCKET
A few weeks ago on my way out of a matinee of Superbad (Seriously, I do not get the hype for this film. Spots of funny, but it aint a gamechanger.), my wife and I were approached by some marketing research peeps to watch some “previews of upcoming films” and… Continue reading
WHAT YOU REALLY KNOW ABOUT THE DIRTY SOUTH(LAND TALES)?
How can a poster so well represent the movie it's for and yet suck so badly? Oh, right…that would mean the movie's a mess, too. I didn't want to believe it given the oddly interesting and diverse cast paired with Richard Kelly at the helm, but the word… Continue reading
BURNING DOIN’ THE NEW-TRON DANCE
It was just a week ago that original Tron director Steven Lisberger returned from oblivion to helm a new futuristic sci-fi film called Soul Code about people downloading memories into other bodies. Apparently, the news made Disney execs remember that the… Continue reading
