Copshop Sees Joe Carnahan Perfect His Quentin Tarantino Impression

New DVD release, , , , ,
Joe Carnahan’s Tarantino impression, the same one he’s been tweaking since Narc and Smokin’ Aces, has never been closer to the genuine article as it is in his latest, Copshop. The gnarly throwback crime thriller has all the tenets of the most famous ‘70s-worshipping auteur; a grooving, percussive soundtrack, chatty lead characters, unhurried pacing, and trigger-happy scumbags who populate this pulpy, shoot ‘em up B-movie that will leave genre fans pleased as punch.  This deceptively knotty copsploitation flick finds scuzzy Vegas fixer Teddy Muretto (Frank Grillo) on the run after he flips on his high-profile clients. With professional hitman Bob…

God of War Ragnarok: “Fat Thor” Design Divides the Internet Despite Being Perfect

New DVD release, , , , , ,
While we were all buzzing about PlayStation’s incredible September showcase, Sony Santa Monica Art Director Raf Grassetti caused a bit of a debate on Twitter when he shared the first full, official image of Thor as he appears in God of War: Ragnarok. My boy! pic.twitter.com/5hPocTewBJ— Raf Grassetti (@rafagrassetti) September 9, 2021 To get a portion of the editorial portion of this program out of the way early, I think that design is awesome. Aside from a few scenes in Avengers: Endgame that were mostly played for laughs, we typically don’t see Thor depicted in this way despite the fact…

Doctor Who’s Weeping Angels Are Perfect Horror Monsters But Are They Returning Villains?

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Have you heard? If not, let Steven Moffat be the first to tell you: Whittaker’s Doctor is “going to fight THE WEEPING ANGELS!!”  Moffat, who invented the Weeping Angels, has every right to be proud of his creation. Few would dispute that the Weeping Angels are NuWho’s break-out monster. In a 2020 poll of scariest Who monsters of all time, the angels ran away with the vote. Modern viewers might not retreat behind the sofa anymore when the Daleks roll in, but “Blink” had people giving cemetery statues a nervous second look. There’s a delicious fright to the idea that an innocent…

How Justice Society: World War II Creates a Perfect JSA for DC Animated Movies

New DVD release, , , , , ,
It seems like a universal experience with Justice Society: World War II is to come into it excited about seeing characters like Jay Garrick and Wonder Woman in action during the war, and to walk away from it stunned at how amazing Black Canary was. This isn’t just an experience for the film’s viewers: it’s one held by the movie’s creators, too.  “[Black Canary was] such an example of when you’re writing something and the character is like, ‘Hello I am present!’ She just continued to persevere through the entire script,” says Justice Society:World War II co-writer Meghan Fitzmartin.  She…

How Arachnophobia Became the Perfect Creepy Crawly Horror Comedy

New DVD release, , , , , ,
There’s a moment in Arachnophobia where Jeff Daniels’ Dr Ross Jennings, lying in bed one night worried his new hometown of Canaima is under attack from venomous spiders, spots an eight-legged intruder lurking in plain sight on his bedroom wall. The scene builds to a terrifying crescendo when the panic-stricken Jennings, who has a pathological fear of spiders, decides to confront the arachnid – only to discover it’s a coat hook.   It’s a prime example of the power Arachnophobia still possesses, 30 years on from its release.

New DVD release, , , , ,
This article is sponsored by: Have you ever watched a crime show and thought you could solve the mystery better than the detectives? Is your ideal night out a Murder Mystery Dinner Theater? Are you a true crime aficionado? Do you love deciphering coded messages? If you answered yes to any of those questions, Hunt A Killer may be the game for you. While I will admit to having a low scare tolerance, I’ve loved murder mysteries since growing up on reruns of Murder She Wrote.

How I’m Thinking of Ending Things Book and Film Differences Make For Perfect Complements

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
Charlie’s Kaufman’s filmic interpretation of Iain Reid’s celebrated novel I’m Thinking Of Ending Things has arrived on Netflix and it’s a complicated, beautiful, confusing work – certainly unless you watch it twice. The book and the film sit wonderfully together, both broadly the same narrative but both leaning into different strands and elements, with the movie picking up half-hinted at threads from the book. They both work, but in different ways. If you were wondering whether you should read the book first or watch the film, the answer is read the book. Not because it’s necessarily better – the two…

Why Timothée Chalamet Was The Perfect Lead Actor For Dune

New DVD release, , ,
In the new film adaptation of the classic sci-fi novel Dune, acclaimed actor Timothée Chalamet plays the central character of Paul Atreides, the teenage heir of a powerful space-faring family who becomes both the leader of an oppressed people and possibly a galactic messiah foretold in an ancient prophecy. It’s a hefty amount of character development to carry even for an actor like Chalamet, who at the age of 24 has already racked up an impressive array of credits in movies like Call Me by Your Name, Lady Bird, Beautiful Boy, The King, and Little Women. But director Denis Villeneuve…

Link Tank: Why Spider-Man 2 Is a Perfect Sequel

New DVD release, ,
Follow-up movies often fail to live up to the greatness of the originals. Spider-Man 2 is not one of those sequels. “So many follow-ups to successful movies stumble as they chase spectacle at the cost of forgetting what really made their predecessor work in the first place. Sam Raimi’s sophomore Spider-Man movie aimed much higher and bigger than his first movie ever could, in part because of just how keenly it understood Marvel’s mightiest hero.” Read more at Gizmodo. Christopher Nolan’s Inception was released a decade ago this month. Check out these mind-blowing facts about this now-classic film. “After The…

“They Hated Each Other”: How Pretty In Pink’s Tensions Created a Perfect Romance

New DVD release, , , , , ,
“Sydney Pollack said ‘everything’s a love story’, and it is. Everything is, if you think about it,” says Howard Deutch. He’s chatting to us ahead of the remastered Blu-ray release of Pretty In Pink which he directed from a script by John Hughes, first released some 34 years ago in 1986. It was Deutch’s feature directorial debut, one of several collaborations with Hughes and with his follow up Some Kind Of Wonderful (also written by Hughes) it arguably formed the apex of ‘80s teen romance as we know it. Deutch is chatting to us via Zoom – the norm during…
