Overheard yesterday evening, while six people tried to choose a film to watch.
“What, Brokeback Mountain? Nah, I want a film that’s more hetero than that.” – A bit more searching follows. – “Oh, what about Interview With the Vampire? That would be so cool!”
Cue a grin from my side. SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: “Real Films for Real Men”, [...]
I am totally in love with indie flick Socket, a kind of body horror/scifi tale of people who get addicted to electricity and mod their bodies to suck up current better. Apparently when you get struck with lightning (at least in this movie) you are left with a hunger for more. Unfortunately, the most pure [...]
The thing about 10000 BC is the fact that it’s so beautifully transparent.
Your main character is called D’Leh, backwards Held (German for Hero).
His main interest is called Evolet, so we realise that she is t[h]e love.
The baddies look like very bad people.
And the really bad people come either from the stars (therefore being aliens) or [...]

Look at those pictures – the first from the Battlestar Galactica Mini Series, the other from the episode Lara from the current season of Smallville.
Notice anything familiar? Yeah, right, those computer console props apparently manage to traverse several story universes as well as time … SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: “Déjà Vu”, url: “http://tapestry.xeophin.net/threads/2008/02/08/deja-vu-2/” });
Just saw Lucky Number Slevin. And how cool can a film be – it’s just one big 70s-Style-a-Palooza! (Oh, and there’s quite a fair share of Josh Hartnett in there too. Hehe.)
Weird.

Woah. I just saw the latest episode of Smallville: Noir. I enjoyed the series for its oversaturated, light-blooming imagery before, but this episode beats it all: the creators prove that they can even fake a great “Film-Noir-Look”.

Some days ago, I just bought the Mary Poppins DVD (I loved the books, in fact, I still love them …).
Yesterday I’ve seen [«Casino Royale»][1]. Interestingly, it seems that this production never really got a tagline slapped on. After watching it, I guess I know why. The only one that would have made sense would be “Run, Forrest James, run!”
Over a year ago, I’ve [written][1] about [Casshern][2] before.
You know you’re getting old when you don’t get the trailer for Miami Vice anymore …
