http://theotherfilms.blogspot.com/2014/07/manuscripts-dont-burn-2014-scathing-on.html
Reviews for the films that lie on the outside edges of the mainstream. Friday, July 4, 2014. Manuscripts Don't Burn (2014): Scathing on the Fly. Manuscripts Don't Burn (2014). SIFF 2014 Film #29. In 2011, Mohammad Rasolulof, an already accomplished director, was arrested and had a 20-year ban from making any films imposed on him by the Iranian government. In secret, Rasoulof broke that government-ban and made Manuscripts Don't Burn. The main characters of Manuscripts. Isn't an "enjoyable" experience....

http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2015/08/project-runway-s14-e1-mad-dash-mayhem.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. Project Runway: S14 E1: "Mad Dash Mayhem". Happy birthday to me! In honor of my 30th (good God it sounds horrible saying that), Project Runway. Has decided to start their 14th season a bit later than usual it seems. But oh well, here we are at season 14, and here we are at another year spent with the best Runaways on the planet! Because if this first episode is any indication, we could be in for one of the better seasons we've seen in quiet some time! Early on, Lindsey. It's almos...

Project Runaways: Project Runway All Stars S4 E1: "Made in Manhattan"
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2014/10/project-runway-all-stars-s4-e1-made-in.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. Project Runway All Stars S4 E1: "Made in Manhattan". This competition is the Hunger Games of fashion." - Alexandria, Season 12. I'm going to stop right there, because I just want to say how this statement is completely true. Well, minus the popularity. Though, I'm sure if the producers had their way, they would be forcing us to watch Project Runway all year long. As we all know, the beginning of The Hunger Games. We get Chasing Fire. Is really about numbing the audience rather t...

Project Runaways: November 2013
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 22, 2013. Project Runway All-Stars S3 E5: "Partners in Crime". Last week, nobody was eliminated. For no good reason either. There was so much shit walking that runway that a quadruple elimination would have been acceptable to all of the viewers. So, Project Runway All-Stars, when Alyssa Milano walks in and introduces this week by asking the designers, "How are you handling the pressure? I'm sure you'll forgive me for screaming, "FUCK YOU! THERE IS NO PRESSURE ANYMORE! The teams are chose...

Project Runaways: February 2014
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 28, 2014. Under the Gunn S1 E7: "Steampunk chic". Earlier this season, I said that Under the Gunn. Is more about the mechanics of mentoring than the design process. At the time, I was citing that most of the character arcs we've been watching has been the arcs of the three mentors: Nick, Anya, and Mondo. So far, it seems that this assessment hasn't been wrong. Really, what do we know about most of the designers? Any enjoyment of Under the Gunn. Really depends on your tolerance of Mondo, ...

Project Runaways: November 2014
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 22, 2014. Project Runway All-Stars S4 E4: Wear Your Heart On Your Sleeve. This important scene is missing from the episode. I've been praising the first three episodes for feeling like classic Project Runway. The judges have been on point, Alyssa Milano has been warm and witty, Zanna Roberts Rassi has been intelligent and quick. The episode before a break is usually some sort of amazing episode that expands the universe or is somehow enough to power the audience over the week. On top o...

Project Runaways: March 2014
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 29, 2014. Under the Gunn S1 E11: The Benefit of Fashion. The designers that remain:. Asha - The single-episode villain who was a complete bitch to Natalia last week. Distanced, egotistical, and.I hate her because of how she treated Natalia last week. (Mentor: Mondo). Sam - The delightfully bitchy youngster. I kind of love his periodic lapses into snark. Funny, happy, genuinely kind of nice. (Mentor: Mondo). How is this guy still around? He wears glasses. (Mentor: Anya). Do you guys know?

Project Runaways: August 2014
http://projectrunaways.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 29, 2014. Project Runway S13 E6: "Rock the Wedding". Ok guys, are you ready for a lesson on manufactured drama? Because that's what this entire episode consists of. The drama starts at the top of the episode when we open up on a tense and silent apartment with some of the girls sitting around looking pensive. Why is everyone on pens and needles? Has someone withdrawn from the competition? Has someone fallen from the balcony? Is there a sexual scandal brewing amongst our gals? Amongst the o...
