"Today’s clip isn’t exactly film-related, but it does tie into Kevin’s list from earlier about unsuccessful movie prophecies. Plus, its title somewhat references Back to the Future, and anything paying tribute to BTTF immediately sparks my interest (this tie-in may have even influenced my vote for president). The comedy short comes from FunnyorDie.com and stars Paul Scheer of Human Giant (and Bride Wars, just to make this more movie-related) in two roles. One role, really, but its divided into two parts, “Alex” and “Future Alex.” And the whole thing is a play on the idea of fashions of the future. Anyway, the video made me think of the Oscars’ usual ignorance of science-fiction costumes, particularly of designs for films set in the future (meaning < "

10 Coolest Film Presidents

"Will this year’s presidential election be determined by which candidate is more hip? Barack Obama is younger, listens to Jay-Z and Kanye West and is something of a trendy choice among college students. McCain, on the other hand, is older and (now) less athletic but is still considered to be hip in a cool grandpa kind of way. Like the grandpa who has exciting war stories to share. Have you seen the video footage of him jumping from an explosion during the USS Forrestal fire? That’s pretty cool. So, the outcome of the race may depend on what the majority of Americans think is cool. Charisma or Muscle. It reminds me of an election for high school class president. Who is more popular, the preppy basketball player or the more jockish captain of the wrestling team? But do we really want a cool president? Let’s take a look at some of the coolest fictional presidents from the movies and decide if it’s truly a good idea to base our vote on which candidate we’d prefer to hang with.

"Interesting storyline. After seeing this film, I felt embarassed. I couldn't watch this with my parents sitting next to me. Too much skanky parts without warning. This movie would have a bigger audience if all the perverted writing was crossed out. I cannot in good concience reccomend this to anyone. "

"The Fifth Element is about this big fire ball thing that is going to destroy the world if these stone things are not placed around this room in Egypt, and this perfect being is in the middle. The movie had that hilarious retro 80's style future similar to that of Blade Runner only a little less dark. Over all I thought this was a great Science Fiction/Action movie. It had some funny parts, some ridiculous parts, lots of cheesy parts, and a few good action scenes. Some things that were hilarious about this film was seeing Chris Tucker who I have only seen in Rush Hour in another movie. He was basically the same as in Rush Hour which was even more funny. Another thing I found hilarious about this movie was the huge plug for McDonalds, it was so obvious you just have to laugh at the big media conglomerates shameless plug. So in the end I think this is one of thoughts fun cheesy action movies that is worth renting. "

"There is nothing particularly badly done about the movie Clean, but there is not much remarkable about it either.For a movie about drugs, bad relationships, motherhood, prison, the entertainment industry, big city hopping, and a lot more, there is surprisingly few high or low points of drama. Everything kind of just trudges along. Which might be fine if there was also some humor. But this movie is not only lacking in drama, it's completely lacking in humor. There's not a lick of it. And there's certainly no action. What else is there? Art? Not really.I was thinking maybe it was hard for me to respond to this movie because it focuses on a culture that I generally have an aversion to and little interest in. People who are looking for fame and reputation. People who want to be cool but are still interested in fame and money. How do I describe it? You know people who have no real personality, but a big ego, and listen to crappy music?But I don't think I have ... "

"With the New Hampshire primary upon us, and in response to the results of last week’s Iowa Caucus, I’ve been thinking about the possible influence of pop culture on Democratic voters. Is it possible that Obama performed better than Clinton because 24 is a more popular TV show than was the short-lived Commander in Chief? The former has so far featured two African American Presidents, played by Dennis Haysbert and D.B. Woodside, while the latter was about a female President, portrayed by Geena Davis. The next season of 24, which is set to premiere once the WGA strike is finished, will actually feature a female President, played by Cherry Jones, but it may be too late. Americans could already be set on nominating a black man, because they’re more familiar with seeing such a President on both the big and small screen. And what a crop of African American actors we’ve seen as the leader of the United States: Morgan Freeman (Deep Impact); James Earl Jones (1972’s The Man); Tommy ‘Tiny’ Li ... "

"Ok so for three consecutive days MovieMind has suggested I watch Children of Men so last night I did and I was impressed. I was a big fan of 12 Monkeys and Wasa told this was similar but better and it think that was a correct assesment. While I didn't find the acting Oscar worthy. The plot was well concieved and written. Kudos to Alfonso Cuarón and Timothy J. Sexton for their writing and also Cuarón's direction. It often seems to me that when the director also writes, things seem to be tighter, unless that person is well...lacking talent. The sets in the movie were awesome every thing was believable. I'm one of thoes agnostic types that just really don't get into things that are "sloppy fiction". This movie, take for instance, the cars in the movie are futuristic not overwelmingly so and they still drive on regular pavement. In twenty years this will most likely be the case, unlike Minority Report or The Fifth Element. This was definatly a da ... "

"This is by far one of the best Sci-Fi/Action movies out there. Not only does the story keep you leaning foreward, the special effects & cinematography amaze your eyes. Its funny, deep, action packed, sweet, & the special effects are STILL better than most movies made today. thats my two cents. "
