Review: Black Swan

2010-12-24T10:33:00.000-08:00

It's been a dogs age since I last posted here, but well, I have a review of a new(ish) film for you to check out. Enjoy

---

BLACK SWAN (2010)

dir. Darren Aronfsky.

starring: Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Vincent Cassel,

Barbara Hershey and Winona Ryder

I don’t really care for Darren Aronofsky. There, I said it. In fact, I’ve only ever truly liked one of his films (The Wrestler) and I don’t really credit him with my enjoyment of the film as much as I credit Mickey Rourke.

What a difference a few years can make. Black Swan is not only a good movie, it’s a great one, and really dug into me unlike any movie this year. It is a hard film to watch, but also a hard film to look away from. This is a film that shows the utter horror that can occur when we find ourselves filled with paranoia and obsession. Being perfect has a huge price, and Black Swan documents this throughout its running time.

The film is about Nina, a ballerina in a New York ballet company that is about to open their season with a wild imagining of Swan Lake where the two leads, the White Swan and the Black Swan, will be portrayed by the same dancer. Nina desperately wants the role, but cannot show the emotion needed to portray the wild and seductive Black Swan. When she actively petitions for the roles she ends up convincing the director that she might have the spark, so he bets everything on her, and so begins her journey to discover the inner darkness that is the Black Swan.

To say much else would ruin the film, I think, so I won’t, but this film really sticks to the ribs like a good meal, and provides lots to think about as one leaves the theater, and this goes both for the plot as well as the techniques used to craft the film itself. This film is a very well put together film that really shows some brilliant craftsmanship from all involved. From the limited locations that make the film feel almost claustrophobic to the camerawork that never stops, dancing along with the characters that give the film a sense of fluid motion, the filmmakers used every asset available to make this movie a feast for the senses and for the mind.

Darren uses this film as a chance to stretch his wings and allow for some clever homage to classical filmmakers like Argento and Polanski, while giving the film his own unique vision. The film works almost as a companion piece to The Wrestler in the sense that Nina is as desperate as Randy to move her career further, and like Randy, she goes to dangerous lengths to make sure it happens. Darren uses this to show the dangers of obsession, and, as I said earlier, the price one pays for perfection. Perfection seems to be a bit of a running theme in his movies, and it really comes full circle here with the story of Nina and her rise to being the Swan Queen.

This film is all about performance, and it’s cast gives some great ones. Natalie Portman gets a lot of shit for some reason, and I think she’s a fine actress, but this really allowed her to shine. She really personifies the shy, timid creature that Nina is at the beginning, and so its not hard to believe her in the role, which makes her transition over the course of the film into a much darker persona that much more powerful. She really nails this, and one shot of her towards the end of the film is simply terrifying.

The supporting cast is great as well. Mila Kunis brings a lot to her role as Lilly, a mysterious girl who joins the company at the start of the film. One of her best assets in the film is her likability. Mila has always been likeable (even as the distinctly annoying Jackie on That 70’s Show) and she uses it to wonderful effect her to work her way into Nina’s life and in so doing, the emotions of the audience. She is also very sensual, which lends itself very well to one of the film’s most talked about sequences. Vincent Cassel was great as the fairly sleezy director of the company who pushes Nina towards her eventual fate, not caring what the end result is as long as he gets his “art”, and Winona Ryder shows up briefly as the former lead dancer of the company. Her role isn’t really that big in the film, except that she provides a window for Nina to see what she might eventually become, and Winona does a fine job with what she is given.

One performance that isn’t getting as much talk as I think it should is Barbra Hershey as Nina’s mother. Good Lord, she is wonderful. Her character is not a likable character, and it’s done that way on purpose, but she brings such realness to the character that it’s hard to dislike her, even when the film leads you to. One scene in particular had me squirming because of how her and Natalie were interacting. It’s areally powerful performance to match Natalie’s electric take on Nina.

One of the other assets the film has it it’s score and it’s soundtrack, which is crafted by Darren’s frequent collaborator Clint Mansell. He does a wonderful job here to take the existing score to Black Swan and transform it into something dark and twisted to mirror Nina’s journey, and sometimes it’s very subtle, and other times it’s right in your face, but it’s a wonderful trick to work that score into our brains so that when the finale comes, the big night, we associate that music more with Nina than anything else.

As I said, this is a film that has just stuck with me, and I continue to think about it now, even after writing this much about it. Darren Aronofsky has crafted one of the year’s best films, a film that is at once stunningly beautiful, absolutely terrifying, and ultimately heartbreaking, and I loved every second of it.

Score: 5 Stars (out of 5)

Wag The Movie - Terminator Salvation Review

Wag The Movie - Terminator Salvation Review

Op/Ed: Listen Up, Warners, DC, Chris Nolan, Et All.

2009-04-05T22:48:00.000-07:00

I am gonna let my nerd flag fly for a moment, and tell my opinion on a certain matter.

Of course last summer, The Dark Knight came out and blew everyone away, and of course, you wonderful people at WB want to make another one, and if Chris Nolan agrees, it'll be off.

Great. I can't wait.

But of course, as with any superhero film, the question is, who will be the villian. Now, since Dark Knight was released, a lot of speculation has floated around, but only one of those is a constant. The Riddler.

A few actors have been tossed around as possibles, and while that's normal Hollwood fiddle faddle, I actually have a suggestion.

DON'T cast Johnny Depp. A great actor to be sure, but I feel like casting him in this sort of role would be almost a cop-out. "We need quirky and wacky, get Depp"

DON'T cast Eddie Murphy. While that was a huge rumor (that has been since debunked) his name is still out there. He can be good (see his old standup, older films, Dreamgirls, ect.) but I don't think this is a role for him.

Here is my big suggestion for casting of the famed Puzzle master of Gotham...

Robin Williams. Bare with me...

Years ago, when Tim Burton was doing the Batman movies, Robin was at one point considered for The Joker...but was never a serious choice. They used him to get Jack Nicholson to lower his price. Of course he was upset...who wouldn't be? They then offered him the role of the Riddler in Batman Forever, and he would have done it if WB apologized for their actions (or so the story goes) and they didn't, so Jim Carrey took the role.

This would be a great way, WB, to say "We're Sorry" In recent years, I've seen Warners become one of the best companies out there for filmmaking, and it would make sense that the people who told New Line Cinema to get lost after they screwed over Peter Jackson would be able to apologize to Robin Williams.

He has also already worked with Chris Nolan before, and Nolan likes to use familiar actors. Chris, I don't know how well you guys got on on the set of Insomnia, but I think he'd make a perfect, unorthodox Riddler.

Riddler in recent years has taken on a more detective role in the comics, and that would be perfect for the Nolan world...I don't know how he'd work into the story, and I am not going to waste my time writing fan fiction...but I'll say this. Heath Ledger was a strange choice for Joker, and he turned in an incredible preformance...I imagine Robin Williams, one of the best (comedic or not) actors of his time could do something similar.

So what I am saying is...Warners, DC, Chris...please consider Mr. Williams for the role of the Riddler, should you decide to use the character in Batman 3.

That's all for now

The DH3 Awards 2008 (Part One)

2009-01-02T12:10:00.000-08:00

Since I don't run the Academy, I'd figured I'd dole out my own awards...Feel free to comment on my choices, or hand out your own.

Best Picture: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
If you read my review here, you know why this movie moved me as much as it did. Not much else need be said
Runner Up: The Dark Knight. I am a nerd for Batman, and it's very true that I saw this movie more times than any rational man should have in theaters, but it truly is a great film, and it will be hard to beat in terms of Comic Book films in the future.

Best Actor: Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler)
A tour-de-force performance by an actor I've always liked. He returns to the promise he had back in the 90's in one fell swoop as the screw-up wrestler Randy "The Ram" Robinson
Runner Up: Brad Pitt in Benjamin Button. It isn't the best preformance of his career, but Brad Pitt brings something special to the man who's live is in perpetual Rewind.

Best Actress: Cate Blanchett (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button)
Cate Blanchett has always been one of the best actresses around. From her indie films, to her big budget stuff, she is always stellar. She even gave an entertaining performance in the disappointing fourth Indiana Jones, but here, she gives a brilliant turn as Daisy, the lover of the title character. She plays the character from the young age of 20 (or so, I wasn't really sure) Until the very end, and each scene with her is a wonder to watch, with her grace and beauty.
Runner Up: Um, Not Sure. I'll get back to you

Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger (The Dark Knight)
As the Joker, Heath undoubtedly left his mark on the world. The film would not have been nearly as good or successful without his performance as the Chaos loving clown. It really is a shame to see such a good actor gone, way to early, as this movie would have launched him into the stratosphere (and he was already pretty famous)
Runner Up: Don't Snicker, but it's totally Aaron Eckhart in the Dark Knight. Sadly because of Ledger's role, he is vastly overshadowed, but is fantastic as Harvey Dent.

Best Supporting Actress: Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button)
as Queenie, the surrogate mother for Benjamin, Taraji exudes the warmth and friendliness that we all want in a mother. She was also not a caricature of the typical African American "Mammy" which could have happened very easily.
Runner Up: Evan Rachel Wood in The Wrestler. I was expecting nothing really strong from Ms. Wood, but she turned in a wonderful performance as Randy's distant daughter.

Best Director: David Fincher (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button)
Two years in a row, Mr. Fincher has given me my favorite movie of the year, and I think he did a marvelous job taking the bulky script by Eric Roth and turning it into a beautiful film, with wonderful characters, and wonderful vision. I'd say this might be a pity award for him after getting completely ignored for Zodiac, but...Benjamin Button was just that good.
Runner Up: TIE! Christopher Nolan for The Dark Knight and Darren Aronofsky for the Wrestler. Nolan turned what could have been a normal superhero sequel into a morality tale that was gritty and dark, and felt very much like a brilliant crime thriller...with a dude in a Bat Suit to boot. Darren really turned in a Class A film with the Wrestler, a film that tells an honest story, with honest emotions.

Best Screenplay (Original): Wall-E
Now I know that most of the movie is beeps and boops, but, there was a great STORY behind those noises, and when they get to the ship and Humans get involved, it gets even better.
Runner Up: The Wrestler. What a weird thing that this movie came from an writer for The Onion. Wacky. Anyway, it's a great script that, as I mentioned in the RU-Director blurb, tells a very honest and well thought out story.

Best Screenplay (Adapted): The Dark Knight
Jonathan Nolan and Chris Nolan really outdid themselves, along with David Goyer, in telling a brilliant Batman story, tied up in a deep and exciting Crime Thriller. The Joker is a new take on the character, but feels familiar in all the right ways, and all the familiar faces from before got better lines in this film. (I'm lookin at you, Gary Oldman, you awesome man, you)
Runner Up: Part of me really wants to say Benjamin Button, but looking at the film, it's clear that it wasn't a well EDITED script...and it really wasn't a faithful adaptation of the story, so I don't really know.

Best Cinematography: The Dark Knight
Holy Hell, this film looks beautiful, especially on IMAX and in HD, but either way you slice it, the somber blue tone to the film adds a nice touch, and they even learned how to light Batman better than before.
Runner Up: Benjamin Button. Fincher always gets the best when it comes to filming his movies, and this looks beautiful as well. In HD I bet it's damned near amazing.

That's It for Now...
More to Come!

Shocker: Bonham Carter cast in Wonderland (along with Anne Hathaway)

2008-10-07T11:23:00.000-07:00

Thats Right, Tim Burton continues to be totally goddamned predictable when it comes to casting his wife in lead roles. According to The Hollywood Reporter Helena Bonham Carter will be playing the Red Queen in the Disney Digital 3D remake of Lewis Carrol's timeless acid trip for kids. Now, I don't mind her doing it, I think she'll be fine (I really like her, despite my protests to Tim's un-originality)

On the more surprising side, hotass Anne Hathaway will be playing the White Queen, sister to the Red Queen (a sign they are going more with the books than the animated movie), and she will be asking Alice to slay a creature, and I am not sure if this kid safe, the Bandersnatch. Sounds dirty.

The two queens join Johnny Depp (The Mad Hatter), Matt Lucas from Little Britain (Tweedles Dee and Dum), Michael Sheen and Mia Wasikowska (Alice) in the film set to be released in 2010.

The Grim Reaper Strikes Again OR: 2008 Sucks

2008-09-27T07:42:00.000-07:00

Paul Newman, all around bad-ass actor, has died at age 83.

From The Hollywood Reporter:

"Paul Newman, the Academy-Award winning superstar who personified cool as an activist, race car driver, popcorn impresario and the anti-hero of such films as "Hud," "Cool Hand Luke" and "The Color of Money," has died. He was 83.

Newman died Friday after a long battle with cancer at his farmhouse near Westport, publicist Jeff Sanderson said. He was surrounded by his family and close friends."

We have lost so many good people this year, and it just sucks. Although we at Wag are known for our snark and sarcasm, we mean it when we say, we wish Newman's family the best.

Box Office Blitz: Sam Jackson defeats Dane Cook

2008-09-21T11:43:00.000-07:00

Fuck You for not letting me walk on the sidewalk, Dane Cook

Yeah, back when I was living in Boston, he filmed his #3 film in one of my favorite hang out spots...and they wouldn't let me walk down the sidewalk, because Dane Cook was getting all funny and shit. Fuck him.

Oh, yeah...Box Office...

1 Lakeview Terrace $15,600,000
2 Burn After Reading $11,295,000
3 My Best Friend's Girl $8,300,000
4 Igor $8,010,000
5 Righteous Kill $7,700,000
6. Tyler Perry's The Family That Preys $7,500,000
7 The Women $5,306,000
8 Ghost Town $5,171,000
9 The Dark Knight $2,950,000
10 The House Bunny $2,800,000

Tis good to see the Coen Brothers with the suprise comedy hit of the fall, and it's also good know that people are spending more money on their filck than the one with Dane Cook, Penny Lane, and the Pie Fucker. America suddenly got taste...thank God.

This week was fairly predictable. Sam Jackson still draws crowds, and his flick from Neil "yeah, I did the Wicker Man remake" LaBute looked to be at least entertaining. Igor was the lone kids movie this week, but kids are getting school underway, so tough shit, John Cusack and friends.

Wow, the Dark Knight still chugging away...that film just won't die...unlike Two Face...oh, did I spoil that for you...whoops

Kato takes the Wheel

In a recent announcment it was revealed that Stephen Chow (Kung Fu Hustle) was not only up fro the role of resident bad ass sidekick Kato in Seth Rogen's The Green Hornet, but also...he's totally directing the fucker.

Folks, it don't get much more awesomesauce than this.

This film has bounced around for years, at one point it was being written by Kevin Smith, but now it seems like it may be shaping up to be a fantastic action comedy.

The Green Hornet is being written by Rogen and his Superbad partner, Evan Goldberg, and Rogen is slimming down to play the title character.

From Schlubby Jewish Dude to Bad Ass Crime fighter. I dig it, Mr. Rogen.

I Heart Gremlins

This is the best thing to come out of a fan film since fan films were invented. I love me some Gremlins, so this...this is the reason they invented the internet...well, this and porn.

I hope this stirs up Warner Brothers so they make another Gremlins movie.

Hellboy II is a-coming up, and I cannot wait. Personally, I hope Universal wises the fuck up, and moves it to late June (where it has little competition) instead of its "right before The Dark Knight" current date...either way though, getting to see Big Red back in the theaters feels hella good. No pun intended.

IFFBoston Review: Mongol

2008-04-27T22:30:00.000-07:00

Mongol is the story of the man who became known as Genghis Khan. Hearing that, I was expecting Mr. Khan to be tearing ass all around Mongolia, killing some bitches, and just generally being epic for the whole running time of the film. What I got, in the end, was a completly different film...no less epic...in fact, this is the first film since Lord of the Rings to feel suitably epic.

The film starts with the boy who will become the ruler of the Mongols. He has set out to choose his bride, and decided not to choose from the tribe which his father invaded years before, but instead chooses a girl, who in reality, picked him. On the way home, Pops falls ill from some poisoned milk, and the boy is promoted to Khan, much to the disdane of the Khan's second in command. He declared war on the poor boy (named Temudjin) and promises to kill him when he grows up.

The film then journeys with Temudjin as he grows up, goes in search of his wife, and declares war on the tribe his father offended when they kidnap his wife. His friend helps him, and shares in the spoils, but due to a mistake, they become enemies quickly, and Temudjin is defeated by one he called Brother. Sold into slavery he waits for years, until he is saved by his wife and son.

Learning of the horrors that the Mongols have become since his enslavement, he sets out to create new laws, and do battle with his "brother" who had become Khan. In the end, he becomes the Khan, Genghis Khan.

The films is one that brought tears to my eyes. It was a film of pure beauty. Every scene was exhilarating to watch, and the scene when he overtakes an army single handedly, with the help of the thunder, is pure cinema gold.

10/10

IFFBoston Watch: The Tracey Fragments

2008-04-25T14:17:00.000-07:00

Ellen Page, of Juno fame, has another movie, and it looks...crazy wack-a-doo weird, which is a good thing, I think.

Here is what the IFF site says:

If Tracey Berkowitz (Ellen Page) is just a self-described "normal 15-year-old girl", how did she wind up sitting on the back of a bus, wearing nothing but a ragged shower curtain, looking for her lost little brother Sonny (who thinks he's a dog)? Well, her life is fraught with dysfunction from her parents, her shrink (the peculiar, androgynous Dr. Heker), her more popular classmates (who ostracize Tracey, cruelly referring to her as "It") and most of all, her obsessive crush Billy Zero, the dreamy, elusive new boy in school.

Adapted from Maureen Medved's novel, the film takes its title literally. It eschews a traditional linear narrative in favor of an audacious sound-and-vision collage with the screen continually split up into fragments. Instead of falling into a set pattern throughout, the fragments (which range from two to twenty at any given moment) appear, scatter and overlap in a seemingly infinite number of configurations. The fluid, jagged editing rhythms result in illusory tricks, often leaving the viewer wondering how or if a certain fragment is related to another. Fortunately, the style and story mesh perfectly; not only do we see many perspectives onscreen simultaneously but we also get a vivid sense how Tracey's reality and fantasy tend to blur (out of nowhere, a heavily stylized credits sequence appears for Tracey's own movie about her life). Featuring an effectively atmospheric score by Broken Social Scene, the film establishes a new creative standard for what one can accomplish with digital video.

IFFBoston Watch: We Are Wizards

2008-04-21T14:30:00.000-07:00

The Harry Potter fan base is an intense one, and they finally get their own movie. The film looks like it focuses on the Wizard Rock craze of recent years...which hey, thats cool..

Here is a description from the folks at IFFBoston:

"My dad is rich!" Woonsocket band Draco & the Malfoys sing in a bookshelf-lined room in a public library, "and your dad is dead!" The band members aren't crooning about their own lives, but from the viewpoint of Draco Malfoy, the evil nemesis of Harry Potter. Be aware: this group is not alone in its pursuit of Potter-inspired rock.

WE ARE WIZARDS is the latest piece from director Josh Koury, whose 2002 documentary STANDING BY YOURSELF was a nominee for Sundance's Grand Jury Prize. This film examines the phenomenon of Harry Potter fandom from a unique perspective, showcasing a sampling of people whose creative work is entirely based on their infatuation with the boy wizard. From "wizard rock" bands like Draco and Boston's own Harry & the Potters; to Brad Neely, an artist who found semi-stardom by creating "Wizard People, Dear Readers," a parody soundtrack to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone; to a pair of brothers, aged four and seven, who play their own brand of "dragon rock" as The Hungarian Horntails; each sub-story is an intriguing nugget about artistry and inspiration.

Interviews with Melissa Anelli of Potter fan website "The Leaky Cauldron" and teenaged activist Heather Lawver (whose "Potter War" website challenged Warner Brothers to allow more fans to realize their Potter-inspired works without being threatened with legal action) help to highlight the complexities of creativity in the Internet age, where copyright owners are often the ones to decide if a project is inspiration or infringement.

Thats right. In recent times the juggernaut that is EverQuest has been slightly overshadowed by its main enemy, World of Warcraft, but that didn't stop Sony from saying "Hey, that game made us a SHIT load of money. Lets make a movie."

So, now there is an EverQuest movie in the works, from the guy who wrote 300, and producer...get this...Avi "Bratz" Arad.

Sweet Deal, no?

This will be an interesting...er...train wreck to watch. Maybe it will come out at the same time as the WoW movie. That would be one hell of a double feature.

Ouch, It seems that the Steven Spielberg produced film based on the Stephen King story is kinda getting the shaft...because they wrote a lofty epic script...for TNT.

Congrats, guys...TNT. They had that Librarian miniseries a few years back, and that had a small budget...I guess good ol' King deserves more than just a simple TV movie. I still wish they would just go theatrical with this film like the were planning on doing back in the day, but what do i know, I just write a slightly sarcastic movie blog...and host a more than slightly sarcastic movie podcast...

Anyway, as i am kinda a nerd for Mr. Spielberg AND Mr. King, you guys will see more updates on this in the future.

Now, I am one of those who really fucking loved the first National Treasure, not because it had good preformances (actually, now that I think on it, it didn't have any "good" preformances, unless you count Sean Bean hamming it up as the villian, and even thats pushing it.), but because it was fun, and you could tell everyone involved had a real good time, and that lead to a good time for me.

Now Apple releases the brand spankin' new trailer for the sequel National Treasure: Book of Secrets...and to be honest....I am underwhelmed like woah. This looks kinda terrible, and I feel bad, cause I was kinda looking forward to this, and the teaser made me groan too, so this movie just gets more and more...well, dreaded.

I will, most likely, see this, but at this point, I don't think I will walk out as enthusiastic as I did with the first one. At least the sidekick is still wisecrackingly funny...that was my favorite part of the first one. *le Sigh*

Sick-ass Poster Alert!

The Del Toro train looks like its heading to town again, and I sure as hell wanna be on it, cause this movie, called The Orphanage, looks to be pretty damned bad ass. Now, Del Toro isn't directing (he was working on a few little projects, you haven't heard of them, most likely.)

So here is the poster.

Pretty Sweet, eh?

The plot apparently revolves with a woman moving to her home, and her child starts to make friends, with invisible children, or something? Well, where do I get my ticket, Mr. Del Toro?!

This Boogeyman doesn't look like total shit

So, Demension/MGM released a new trailer for Halloween yesterday, and to be honest, I don't think I'll hate this as much as I thought when I saw the first abysmal trailer that was attached to Grindhouse.

When I saw that first trailer, I had a massive urge to go up to the projection booth and set the trailer ablaze, and point and laugh while I watched the footage die a horrible death.

Now, with this new trailer, I feel, well, I still don't think it was a good idea to remake it, but it looks like a good Rob Zombie movie. I still feel exploring Mikey Myers background is a terrible-fuck-idea, but you know, whatever makes the Weinstiens rich...

Check out the trailer here at Yahoo!

Count me curious...I hope its a good and entertaining movie, but...how can you remake a classic without going into that "shittastic" territory. I just hope its not like Gus Van Sant's needlessly retarded remake of Psycho, cause if it is, it will be worse than wearing a Silver Shamrock mask and watching this...

George Lucas is one big Douche Bag

2007-07-25T17:10:00.000-07:00

Cause he loves to fuck with his faithful few (million) fans.

As much as I admire the dude for all the shit he's done for digital filmmaking, and the fact that he started the series that I have enjoyed (I don't hate the prequels, well, I hate Episode One, but, the rest are fine) and is continuing another series with a film that is shaping up to be pretty cool looking....

Here is the proof that good ol' Flannel Man adores making his fanbase mad.

So guess what!

No, I am not living in my parents basement. >_< Guess again.

What's that? They are making a third Bill and Ted movie? Correct. Awesome, right?

Wrong.

According to DigitalSpy the sequel is moving ahead WITHOUT the stars of the first two. Alex Winters and Keanu Revees will not be returning to do the movie, apparently because Keanu is busy doing "his Superman thing" and his agent thinks this might just kill his career, and Alex Winters...well, fuck if I know what Alex Winters is up to.

While a third movie is a bad idea in the first place, the idea of a Bill and Ted movie without the original Bill and Ted is the most fuck-tarded thing I have ever heard. Apparently Keanu even wanted to do it, before his agent went "NO! BAD KEANU!" and hit him with a rolled up newspaper repeatedly.

Well, if this comes to pass, you can be sure that I will be making fun of this production at every turn, so tune the fuck in.

Indiana Jones and the Short Walk to the Car

2007-07-11T22:29:00.000-07:00

Video! Video! I tell you!

Thanks to everybody's pal Stevie Spielberg, you can now see a few precious seconds of our dear Doctah Jones as he pats the director on the back.

This is more exciting than it should be, but its nice to know they are actually shooting this thing now.

check it over at the Indiana Jones official website here

and don't jump too high for joy, or you might go throug the roof, and we don't need that kind of a mess on our hands over here at Wag.

Trailer Trash! with DH3

Its time for a round up of new trailers that have been unleashed, and my thoughts on said trailers that have been unleashed. unleashed.

GET SMART
Soucre: MSN

As much as I hate the idea of this movie (Leave good classic TV alone.) Steve Carell looks to be on top of his game here, and not shcmucking it up like in Evan Almighty. Hopefully this will live up the tv series, and this trailer is a good sign, as it made me laugh out loud.

THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES

I have never read the books that this is based on, but I hear good things, and the movie doesn't look half bad. Now I too grow weary of the "Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings made money, so lets adapt every fantasy story out there" phase, but I always enjoy a good fantasy film, and I never want a film to suck, so here's hoping that this is good. `r

This looks to be a lot more fun than I expected, even for the stupid premise. The teaser had me giggling at Paul's funny preformance, and now even more so. Everyone looks like they were having fun, so...why the hell not. If it sucks, which it may very well be, you can be sure I will be the first to bitch about it.

also, see out last post about the crazy fucked up 1-18-08 trailer.

According to a scopper who talks to the friendly people over at AICN, Indiana Jones will once again be looking for the Box-o-God aka The Ark of the Convenant.

This, to me, sounds like a bad idea, or George Lucas lack of ideas in General. Now this could be just internet fiddle faddle (known lovingly by the CHUD.com Chewers as Oh Don Piano), and I hope it is, because if I am going to shell out the bucks to see a new film, I want to see a NEW Film.

The idea does bring one good thing into focus. It is now evident why Marion and family have come back. And I love Marion, so this could be a sheep in wolves clothing...er...whatever thet fuck that means.

So, my main man over at CHUD says he's got it on good faith that this will be one of the big announcements of Comic Con this year. Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhattan in Zach Snyder's telling of the amazing Alan Moore story Watchmen.

I tend to trust Devin, because he usually sits on news like this until the right moment, because, well, he knows he's right. If so, this is pretty damn cool, because I love me some Billy Crudup. in that totally hetero way.

I am sure we will be hearing more about this, and other Watchman casting as Comic Con unfolds shortly.

Well, Folks, Filming has kicked into high gear for Indiana Jones and the Really Comfy Chair, and things are starting to leak to the pipes of the interweb. Today some High Scale, awesomesauce pictures were released, so get your panties in a bunch, fanboys, because here come...cars.

and buses.

What? There have only been a few photogs of actual stars Harrison "Ancient" Ford and Shia "Mutt" LaBeouf, but we are getting a shit ton of pictures of sets, and cars, and stuff that doesn't really matter...

Well, I am sure when something big is released, someone will tell you before I do, so just wait for that day.

Until then. Random Extras!

That's right folks, due to a period of civil unrest (or just busy lives) we are on hiatus. We will soon have plenty of episode for you to snarf down, as we had a hiccup in the production offices and now production on said episodes is underway. We will also be coming out of hiatus for a brief period to do our Lord of the Rings-a-thon, so look for that. hopefully at the end of the summer when both Untitled Entertainment and Parfit Production relocates to Boston, Massachusetts, we will get episodes out on a regular basis.

Also, make sure on whatever device you are listening this to with, you place part one and two IMMEDIATLY AFTER EACH OTHER or it won't work.

Look out for a new theme, some random crashes by our manager Ashley, PFC Masellas, and Josh. Also watch out for some Hairy Balls.

Episode One, Part One - Van Helsing

2005-10-25T22:54:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the wonder that is WAG THE MOVIE!

using the powers of the interweb computer net, we bring you a humor based commentary on a movie, making fun of it. If its a bad movie...HAHAHA Skrew you film people. if it is a good movie, then we do it in love and respect.

Our first episode is VAN HELSING....i leave you to guess which of the above emotions we feel about this movie.

NOTE! There is a countdown at the front. When Donald says 3 hit play, not five like he says. AND

when Donald makes the comment about "He won't save you know" about 25:28 into the episode PAUSE and wait for Van Helsing to cross the snow on the mountain...then when he hits dirt and snow...UN-PAUSE...technical burp in this episode.

Enjoy...listen to us on your nano, damnit. Part Two on Friday
