The Bruce Campbell’s Soup Company Presents…
...FOUR NEW FLAVORS!!! After seeing it from SCI FI Wire, I thought it was pretty cool, so I couldn't go without re-posting. But apparently, yesterday was Bruce Campbell's birthday. This is relevant to me because my teenage years were chock-full of Bruce Campbell's films and TV shows. Strangely enough, most people still know him as Ash from the Evil Dead trilogy, but the man has done a great deal of film and television work, most recently playing Sam...
John Lennon Is The Boy In Nowhere Boy
Nowhere Boy - Official Trailer The trailer for Nowhere Boy, a biopic about the teenage years of John Lennon, recently premiered at the London Film Festival. The film is based on a book by Lennon's half-sister, Julia Baird, entitled: Imagine This: Growing Up With My Brother John Lennon. The film was shot in Liverpool and details Lennon's early life as he is being raised by his Aunt Mimi (Kristen Scott Thomas) and his own mother, Julia (not his sister, you weird, freak-o). In the trailer, you see some shouting (Aunt Mimi yelling at John), pouting (John trying...
Avatar: The Last Cameron Bender
When news came out that James Cameron was working on a movie called Avatar, I was excited to hear the news, but I didn't actually do any research into what the film was going to be about. I merely saw the title "Avatar" and assumed that it was going to be based on Avatar: The Last Air Bender. Boy, was I wrong. Because instead of James Cameron directing The Last Airbender, M. Night Shyamalan is directing instead. Shyamalan made The Happening. And that was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. When I went to the theaters to see...
50 Cent Makes a Movie, I Laugh
I never thought I'd say this, but 50 Cent should start rapping more often. Dude's got a new album AND movie coming out, with both titled Before I Self Destruct. I say he should start rapping more, because the movie he's putting out looks like he shot it over the course of one weekend in Baltimore. I also say it because he still needs to get better at being an MC. A lot of the time I just wonder whether or not a drunk homeless man stumbled into the studio and slurred some words into the microphone, making it hard...
Explosive Black Power!
After Spawn hit theaters, Michael Jai White realized that he needed to take some time off and get buff as shit. Dude's huge now. He actually has the ridiculous build of one of those stiff, rubber WWF figures that would stay in one position that I played with in my childhood. So, if Shaft, Dolemite or Truck Turner didn't give you enough ass-whoopin' on drug dealers and street scum, then Black Dynamite ought to fill the remaining void. I think that my favorite part of the trailer is the fact that it stays true to all of the old blaxploitation trailers...
Zombieland Is A Good Movie
When faced with the critical decision of whether to see some moving pictures about couples retreating together or Chris Rock talking about hair follicles, I decided that good 'ol gory zombie glory from the previous weekend would solve the dilemma. Zombieland hit the spot juhhhhhhhhst right. It's interesting to note that this new sub-genre of zombie-comedy is starting to get popular for some reason. I mean, Shaun of the Dead was great in its own right, but after that, I thought it would be...about it. Right? Wrong. It seems as if we've entered this kind of "Zombie Renaissance" with popular culture...
Fantastic Fox and Friends Fighting Farmers On Film!
Do you use the Internet? Have you seen video portraying a stop-motion animated fox and his animal friends? If so, did you see lots of futura bold? And was that font accompanied by voices from actors appearing in Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and The Darjeeling Limited? Well. My professional deduction is that you were watching Wes Anderson's film adaptation of the Roald Dahl book, Fantastic Mr. Fox. If you answered "No," to many of the questions above, then I must prescribe you with the viewing of the film's trailer below: Fantastic...
