Guitar Hero: The Movie - Directed by Brett Ratner
James | August 28, 2008 | 23 Comments
“I love ‘Guitar Hero’ and I think it’s a part of pop culture. I would love to do a ‘Guitar Hero’ movie, if Activision would ever let me. I’m trying to convince them, but why would you have a movie screw up such a huge franchise? Not that I would make a bad movie. So that would be cool, to do a ‘Guitar Hero’ movie. ”
“It could be about a kid from a small town who dreams of being a rock star and he wins the ‘Guitar Hero’ competition. One of these dreams-[come-true] kind of concepts.”
I’d write something sarcastically witty here, but I haven’t the strength. Link.
My Star Wars Fandom: The Numbers Don’t Lie
James | August 27, 2008 | 6 Comments
Seven Movie releases.
Two I love.
One I like well enough.
Three I hate.
One I refuse to see.
How can I call myself a fan if I only like 42.85% of the primary product?
Kevin Smith Has Seen The Watchmen…
James | August 15, 2008 | 1 Comment
And…
I saw “Watchmen.” It’s fucking astounding. The Non-Disclosure Agreement I signed prevents me from saying much, but I can spout the following with complete joygasmic enthusiasm: Snyder and Co. have pulled it off.
Remember that feeling of watching “Sin City” on the big screen and being blown away by what a faithful translation of the source material it was, in terms of both content and visuals? Triple that, and you’ll come close to watching “Watchmen.” Even Alan Moore might be surprised at how close the movie is to the book. March can’t come soon enough.
Don’t forget, this is from the guy who thought Lord of the Rings was nothing but “a bunch of guys walking around for 3 hours” - but still - we can hope this holds true. Link.
Body of Lies = Enemy of the State

Well, not exactly, but it sure as hell reminds me of it. Maybe it’s the satellites, black helicopters and explosions. Plenty of flicks have those these days though. Hmmmm….
A new trailer for the Ridley Scott directed action-espionage film Body of Lies has hit the tubes, this time a bit more loudly than the first sneak attempt (which did nothing for me). The film stars that guy from Titanic and that other guy from Gladiator that both seem to be unnaturally attracted to Oscars. The movie looks interesting and fun, no doubt - but I still can’t seem to shake a particularly sad feeling while watching it…
I mean, isn’t this made by the same guy who gave us Blade Runner and Alien? Body of Lies seems kind of… uninspired… by comparison. No? Link.
