Boston police will win a Pulitzer for this photo!

The original looks better :/

It ends with an ambiguous conversation between Dexter and Vogel and as she leaves we realize we are in an insane asylum and the staff and patients are all familiar faces. Vogel has a short chat with someone looking like La Guerta to the tune of "After all these years we're making progress: these...

I am not sure what your issue is... I'll blame my SD torrent.

Well... what is generally used as the origin of Z are Ed Wood's movies (the archetype being Plan 9 From Outer Space - 1959). It is debatable though because, as far as we know, Ed Wood was trying to make great movies with no money and the end results are more accidents due to his... let's say...

It's not really a question of quality of the end result, but more the nature of the object. A B movie is, historically, the second movie in a double-bill. From there, things are correlated: less money (aka time) to make it, so less star power and a greater reliance on formulas (aka genre). So...

The home-made 'energy' drinks have to lead somewhere...

Let's not confuse B movies and Z movies. Sharknado is Z.

You can suffer from sleep apnea without being overweight, but being overweight makes it a lot more likely.

I look at that release and release window games list for the PS4 on IGN and something is odd: Knack (which is Cerny's game) is the only japanese game of the bunch. Capcom? Bandai Namco? Sega? Konami? Square Enix? Nowhere to be seen. I suspect that the list will get expended as the Tokyo Game...

The first Godzilla is a very serious (and actually very good) movie about the dangers of misused science and the organisation in time of catastrophe. Most of the sequels are more campy and about giant monsters fighting each others more than anything. The exception being the very strange...

That a little too far fetched for my taste! But maybe they'll rewrite the origin story and have Godzilla be awaken by an earthquake or something (but then... what is the story about?). Bah... maybe it's too be understood at a more abstract level: not as a Godzilla made out of destructed...

Nice visual work, but at a symbolic level it is flawed: destruction does not create Godzilla, it's the other way around!

Considering just about all mainstream news outlet did a paper or three on the PS4 and Xbox One and that consumer electronics stores as well as cultural goods stores around here have pre-order signs, I am pretty sure mainstreamers are well aware of the existence of the machines.

Thanks to this thread I googled the girl I was in love with in kindergarten more than 30 years ago! Actually, we were in kindergarten together, but it's a couple years later than she bite my hand after I confessed my love to her (the kind of stuff that makes analysts rich!). Anyway, thanks...

Only God Forgives was released in Europe a month or two ago, so I just walked 10 min and saw it. The Gangster I just saw at a movie festival (NIFFF: Neuch?tel International Fantasy Film Festival that also has a section called New Cinema From Asia). Found a trailer btw: PS: the...

For reference, I have seen all of Wong Kar Wai, most of John Woo (NB: John Woo 'early stuff' is mostly comedy - he made 15 movies before A Better Tomorrow) and most of Johnnie To (when he directs that is, because I doubt even him saw most of what he produced) and this movie is still a poorly...

The problem is not that the rom-com elements are bad (in fact Alison Pill and Emily Mortimer playing manic/clumsy is very amusing), the problem is that there is a pretty broad offer for rom-com on TV and a very narrow one for media/politics fiction, so, in The Newsroom, every minute spent on...

Three Leaf Clover ++?

Obviously, not a very serious endeavor:

That Q&A was worth reading!

Tele-training with 'Matthew' from New Delhi perhaps?

Just saw it today, so I'll drop the following track from 1985's Night on the Galactic Railroad (a meditative, metaphysical and dream-like movie about two anthropomorphic cats who take a train across the galaxy - original, often beautiful, but sadly extremely boring). The music is made by a...

Did they manage to resolve some/most/all of the storylines at the end of the 2nd season or does it end with the viewer massively frustrated?

I caught only 4 games of the match (from 4-2 to 5-5 in the second) and that took 30 min...3 hours for a straight set victory ongrassmust be some kind of record. 11 breaks out of 32 games on grass? Shame on them booo booo! Was Edberg also in attendance today? That must be so weird for him to see...

There is a TV related thingy for PS3 in Japan called Torne... I know nothing about Tivo, DVR or whatever, so I'll let people decipher this (old) video.

I saw nothing today as I was at a movie festival that always starts with the last week-end of Wimbledon... I skipped films last year for Federer vs Murray, but I won't for Murray vs Djokovic doing 87658764 strokes rallies from the back of the court (unless I catch some of it between two...

Modern video camera are very sensitive, so it can look bright on your TV screen while being pretty dark in reality. That being said, light declining or not, unable to get an answer from the umpire as to when the roof will be closed or not, losing focus in a grand slam semi final to the point of...

Obviously not related to 'Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead'

Even if all you said was true, it would make Tree of Life some sort of masterpiece, wouldn't it?

I think you are thinking of The Fountain. A movie that shares some of its ambitions with Tree of Life but falls waaaaay shorter (it is more gratifying as a narration though, there are characters with lines and a plot that moves forward, etc).

Day 8: Plastic man, glass man, canon man and lucky man. I only get to see the first two sets of the Berdych vs Djokovic :/ Djokovicis Plastic Man. His ability to stretch himself to reach the most ludicrous of balls and manage from these awkward positions to still produce very good shots is...

It is indeed over-hyped.Metacritichas it at 92/100 with a user rating of 8.7/10. Damned reviewers over-hyping stuff!

A masterpiece, albeit a flawed one.

There is entirely not enough Journey in your lists guys

I agree that Treme felt like it was missing at least one dramatic arc that gave a sense to where it was going, but in a way it serves the portrait of a city that does not know where it is going. It works more a sociological study than a fiction, but the study is fascinating in its own right.

With the PS3 I started the "Don't buy stuff if you are not done with what you bought" policy so suddenly the list got a lot shorter than in previous generations (also almost no japanese import or 2nd hand games): PS3 Disks (22): Assassin's Creed Assassin's Creed Brotherhood(a gift!)...

waitwaitwait... I mentioned it to question it and got convinced in the process... I think it's Kreugen who mentioned it first so let's render unto Brell the things that are Brell's.
