“Somebody shoot this prick!”
During my college years, my mates and I would have “Movie Nights” on a pretty regular basis. Almost weekly, actually. This consisted generally of movies, pizza, and beer. Worse ways to spend a night, huh? One of our common staples … Continue reading
Something for Thursday
I’ve long had something of a love-hate relationship with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera. The show came out sometime in the late 1980s, and ten years would pass before I’d see it on stage myself. But for a … Continue reading
If you have a problem and no one else can help….
I just saw, over at MeFi, within a thread devoted to the new The A-Team movie, a checklist of things you should expect in an A-Team story. Here’s the checklist: A-Team checklist: [_] Villagers menaced by goons[_] Break Murdoch out … Continue reading

Blofeld should have run a movie studio
It appears that the troubled times at MGM have claimed a victim: James Bond. MGM has been on the selling block for a while, and yet no one has stepped up to buy the studio, so their ability to develop … Continue reading
De-rez!
SamuraiFrog points this out: a very well-made trailer for the movie TRON, the original 1982 classic, using only footage from the movie but edited in the style of trailers these days: Compare with the actual original trailer from 1982: Trailers … Continue reading
