By now I think everybody has noticed the decline in quality of Pixar films. 10 years ago, a new Pixar film would be all the buzz. People could not wait to see the next foray into 3D animation. But nowadays, I for one could not care less. Nor are the people I know talking about […]
A cool video essay about how Michael Mann uses people, places & crime in his films. And their motivations. Sadly, the video is not to be embedded, so head over to Youtube for the video. Michael Mann: People, Places, Crimes
Ten years ago Grindhouse got released. A double bill featuring Death Proof by Tarantino & Planet Terror by Rodriguez. Now Death Proof was not received that kindly. It was seen as one of the lesser films of Tarantino. To this day, people still look down upon it. A thing I never really understood. Especially given […]
Pretty awesome 80’s Tron-esque short. That reminds me, where is that Tron Legacy sequel? And we need another Blood Dragon.
Be sure to watch this Kickstarter funded documentary when it comes out. It’s one of those amazing what if stories, but completed with interviews of the people involved.
The Driver-1978 – YouTube. Tarantino borrowed a few shots and named it as one of his coolest movies. A game borrowed its name and then went all over with its own plot, but including a few key scenes and even sound effects.

After two years I finally watched this film. A truly gruesome story, with an ending that most people already know about. Yet the films stays compelling untill the very end. The majority being spend with the protagonist being stuck between rocks. An amazing feat for a film clocking in at 94 minutes. Also the start […]
Liam Neeson is badass, and the internet know this. The Grey is just another example of how badass Liam Neeson is by letting him punch wolves in the face and question god. Besides all that this is a very decent survival film about a plane crashing and the man versus nature struggle that ensues. With […]
