Voice movies can be great for interviewing really interesting people about things other than the movie they’re promoting. There’s really only a few questions you can ask somebody about voice acting. How long did it take and how many sessions? Did you record… Continue reading →
Discuss this here on our message boards. Nick's List.Devin's List. I don’t get to the theater as often as I’d like and I don’t have the same access to advanced or press screenings as Devin and Nick, so I’ve yet to see a few of the films populating their… Continue reading →
Discuss this here on our message boards. My Top Fifteen for 2003.My Top Fifteen for 2002.My Top Ten of 2001.My Top Ten of 2000. Lists like these are tricky, because there's always the desire to provide something that will please the casual film fans as well… Continue reading →
