The Night Before The Night Before
And I finally got to see The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Pretty tightly done. Agatha Christie for the post-millenial set.
The Extra
I got to be an extra in the new Total Recall movie being shot at Pinewood Studios in the city today. Whoo.
Oh That Wes…
Despite really enjoying his other films, I had never seen Rushmore until today. I now feel regret about that. Funny, painful and brilliant.
Yay, Giant Turtles
This was a pleasant surprise. Picked it up while randomly checking through the HMV on Queen Street West. The 90s revival of Gamera is one of the best giant monster–or Kaiju–movies around, and I didn’t think it would ever appear on Blu-Ray, but here we are.
He’s Still All Cop
Finally got around to picking up Robocop on Blu-Ray. Not the prettiest transfer I’ve ever seen, but it sure beats the hell out of the original VHS copy that was my previous standard.
HD Silent
That Blu-Ray copy of Metropolis we got has forever scarred my initial impression of the film. Which, since I first viewed it in the 80s, had more neon, Pat Benatar and Freddy Mercury in it…
Yay Toronto
Just got and watched Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. It is freaky when you see a movie and realize “That’s my neighborhood.”
The Needs Of The Many
Outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one. Unless you’re renting the entire Blu-Ray collection of original cast Star Trek movies, which is what I’m doing. For some reason Star Trek is one of the only science fiction movies The Wife can actually enjoy, although she’s only ever seen Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Today, however, she will finally come to terms with the loss of Spock.
Undead Movies
Okay, so Zombieland was actually a pretty damn good film. I hadn’t heard anything about it previously, being terminally unhip, but renting it and giving it a watch was an extremely funny and pleasant surprise. In particular, Bill Murray in The Greatest Cameo Ever.
Wayne is on...
