10 Best Movie Titles of the Pas ...

"Sometimes I really wish David Bordwell’s blog permitted comments. Mostly it’s better that it doesn’t, but the man’s last post has made me want to discuss the art of movie titles for a whole week now. And it didn’t help that coinciding in time with Bordwell’s post was another one of those sidebars in Entertainment Weekly pointing out some new movies with misleading titles. Yes, Lakeview Terrace does sound like a period romance, as do many other badly titled films (Elizabethtown and Wicker Park come to mind). This weekend also sees two new movies employing the method of borrowing song titles, which are typically not appropriate (Ghost Town seems more like a horror western hybrid, while My Best Friend’s Girl[More]

10 Movies That Came Out Too Late

"Earlier this year, I thought that it was way too late for a Sex and the City movie. But then it made a ton of cash, so I guess I was wrong. Still, I’m going to continue similarly thinking it’s too late for another X-Files movie. And even if I’m proven wrong and the masses get out to theaters this weekend in search of the truth, I’ll keep on believing that X-Files: I Want to Believe is way past its time. To celebrate Mulder and Scully’s tardiness, here are 10 other movies that came out too late: The Godfather Part III (Released in: 1990; Should have been released in: 1976) - Never mind the fact that had this third installment been made years earlier, Sofia Coppola wouldn’t have been cast and therefore wouldn’t have given her terribly infamous performance. The more important matter is that sequels arriving more than a decade after the previous installment are almost always doomed. The longer the wait, the higher t " [More]

"I was certain that at least once during the B-movie titled, straight to late night cable "Snakes on a Plane" that I would spend at half the movie with my fingers over my eyes. Consider me shocked when that feat only happened once…at the end of the movie as the credits were rolling. I´m rather impressed with myself. Anyway, "Snakes on a Plane" is about, well, snakes on a plane. The plot is a touch more sophisticated than that simple title would have us believe. See, there´s this really bad mobster guy in Hawaii who had killed-in a rather gruesome scene-a district attorney on vacation there. One little problem: surf boy Sean Jones witnessed this murder. Now, because Mr. Mobster is such a big bad (and wanted) boy, Sean is being flown to LA in order to testify. To ensure the testimony never happens, many hundreds of snakes are covertly put aboard the plane. Now, Sean, Agent Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) and the merry band of clashing personalities on the plane h ... " [More]

"Variety says Steven Spielberg and co. are strenuously aiming to avoid what we’re apparently calling “The Da Vinci Scenario” –– so named because a “jet-lagged, overtired, cynical mob of critics and executives decimated The Da Vinci Code when it debuted [at Cannes] two years ago”––with this weekend’s debut of Indiana Jones vs. King Shia LaBeouf. Some of their defense tactics: journalists will only be allowed to interview the cast and filmmakers before the press screening, and they won’t be invited to the film’s after party. Because limited access *always* ensures positive pres coverage! Daniel Day-Lewis is in talks to replace Javier Bardem in Rob Marshall’s feature adaptation of Nine, a musical sort of based on Fellini’s 8 1/2. Because men who win Oscars for playing mad men are apparently interchangeable when it comes to casting musicals! Joe Dante––who we love––[More]

Sssssoooo Good

"The time: around noon it seems. The place: a deserted area under a bridge in Hawaii. Gangster Eddie Kim (Byron Lawson) and his band of thugs are carrying out a gruesome execution. Too bad Sean Jones (Nathan Phillips) happened to be there crouching in nearby bushes watching the whole thing in disbelief. Now Kim wants him dead as well. Sean now must fly to Los Angelos with FBI agent Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) and testify against Kim in order to lock him up for good. Since the first rub out failed, Kim must now find another way to stop Sean from arriving in Los Angeles. So, what does he do? He has his thugs smuggle a crate filled with tons of poisonous snakes that's set to burst open only once the plane is halfway to Sean's destination. In order to make the snakes aggressive, the leis handed to passengers as they board the plane have been sprayed with pheromones. Now the snakes are slithering their way around the plane attacking anything and everything in their sight. E ... " [More]

"I read part of the book once back in middle school and became rather bored. I figured the movie would be just the same but in a group of friends 2 out of 3 majority ruled for the film. So I went to please them. Although I consider myself a rather large Star Wars Fanatic, I never cared for Hayden Christensen and his acting career (especially in Star Wars Episode 3: revenge of the sith. But that's another story for a later time). Overall I was not surprised at how my final reaction was to the movie. It sucked. Hands-down. The only parts I really did enjoy was the idea of Jumping (hey, admit it'd be kind of cool to have the power) and well I guess the locations (But those weren't even half as interesting as I would of hoped). I mean seriously, there could of been way better shots and more locations. What bothers me also was WHY WAS ROME the number one choice and not PARIS. I think france would of been a better choice for -- ooh. DO NOT READ AFTER THIS IF YOU DON ... " [More]

Could ‘Cloverfield’ Bomb?

"Forget about betting on the NFL playoffs. Forget about betting on the Oscar nominations. In fact, forget about betting on whether the Oscars will even happen. The only thing you gamblers should be betting on right now is whether Cloverfield is going to be a box office hit or a box office bomb. Because right now, it’s any body’s game. If the monster movie ends up being the former, it will most likely only be only a modest hit. But if it’s the latter, it will be legendary. Actually, some people think the movie is going to be this year’s Snakes on a Plane. I have a feeling it has more appeal on its own than did Snakes, mainly because people are curious about the monster. There was nothing in the marketing of Snakes on a Plane that made us wonder, nothing that wet our appetites for surprises. Now, if we had already seen a visual of Cloverfield’s monster it would be a different story. And after the opening weekend, after somebody posts a photo of the monster on the web (instead of simpl ... " [More]

"By Tricia Olszewski With no press screenings yet a year’s worth of hype, the Movie With the Name threatened to be a throwaway Boat to Heaven—which is what star Samuel L. Jackson said the producers might as well call the film if they changed its title to the snooze-worthy Pacific Air Flight 121 as intended. So the brilliantly stupid Snakes on a Plane nom de crap stayed put, and surprisingly, it’s a thriller so entertaining that it makes recent disaster flicks such as Poseidon look like the real trash. Similar in concept to Scream, SoaP consciously mocks the we’re-all-going-to-die formula of its genre while painting the numbers too cleverly to be exiled to so-bad-it’s-good territory. The setup, if anyone cares, involves Sean (Nathan Phillips), a murder witness whom a sorta-scary Agent Flynn (Jackson) persuades to testify. Flynn escorts Sean out of Hawaii and into protective custody on a flying machine that the creative killer, despite extensive security ... " [More]
