Re: TINTIN and the Case of Diminishing Expectations
One other thing -- if Spielberg's name wasn't on this movie, would you have any interest at all in seeing it?

TINTIN and the Case of Diminishing Expectations
I actually want to like this movie, but I'll be damned if this new, full length trailer doesn't give off the same stench the INDY 4 trailer did. I'm surprised this is another "mo cap" movie that looks, again, like "mo cap." I figured the animation would be more stylized -- as I a...

Re: New Making of JAWS Book -- WOW
They said there are just a couple of hundred books left. If I got 980, what does that mean??
I mean, who cares, but either they made a mistake on my copy or they pressed more than 1000 (which is my best guess).

Re: rate the last movie you saw
HORRIBLE BOSSES 7/10 Fairly funny, if slight, ensemble comedy did well at the box-office this weekend -- it never becomes hilarious, but after a slow start, there are enough laughs to satisfy. Also, despite a few raunchy jokes, the tone of this one isn't nearly as "gross" as a few other R ...

Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA - The Other One - On Blu-Ray/DVD
I read that one guy's comments -- sounds like he did get the wrong version. Anyway I rolled the dice and picked up the Blu Ray version so we'll see what it's actually like. The movie is agreeably terrible for bad movie fans. I still wonder how a Channel 56 Boston WLVI-TV microphone ended up in one o...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
Quick thoughts: ADJUSTMENT BUREAU 8/10 A real nice surprise -- not a Bourne-esque chase/pursuit picture as the trailers suggested, but a romantic sci-fi tale with terrific chemistry between Matt Damon and Emily Blunt. John Toll's terrific cinematography makes NYC sing, the story is satisfying and a ...

CAPTAIN AMERICA - The Other One - On Blu-Ray/DVD
Just in time for the release of the new movie, Albert Pyun's terrible (yet terribly entertaining) "21st Century Pictures" adaptation of CAPTAIN AMERICA is getting released on Blu-Ray and DVD this month from the director himself in a Director's Cut edition. To avoid legal problems it's bein...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
It's a fantasy film. You know -- with elves? Goblins? Like, what exactly were you expecting? Do you crack wise on THE DARK CRYSTAL too because it has elves in it? Oh no, it's an elf, it sucks! lol. I don't know, seriously, how anyone give 1/10 to a film that houses one of Goldsmith's all-time best s...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
Yeah, neither were. MINORITY REPORT was Super 35 and it probably loses more in 4:3 since the effects were shot at 2.35. CHILDREN OF MEN was 1.85.
Those had to have been some of the last movies to even be released in full-screen on DVD...haven't seen one of those in a long time!

Overrated Directors
I've been going back and watching some old Siskel & Eberts and it's amazing to see how much they overpraised -- along with many other critics of the day -- a number of directors. However, in lieu of where their careers have gone, have there been any other filmmakers who have become as irrelevant...

Re: Conan the Barbarian Blu-ray
I'm going to import the Fox international Blu-Rays which will be region free and can be ordered from DDDHouse (total $50 shipped for the two; come out on July 14th). Chances are the encodes will be different than Universal's and I love the original so much I'd like to compare them. DESTROYER, enjoya...

Re: Michael Bay Pleads for Brightness in 3-D TF3 Exhibitions
Ed, it's all coming to an end, thankfully. I can see them using 3-D every once in a while for certain movies but this notion of using 3-D two-three times a month for any major studio release is o-v-e-r. I said from the very beginning 3-D was nothing but a gimmick and they were going to over-do it, c...
