Anders Bergstrom's blog on Words, Films, and Music. Tuesday, January 31, 2006. Ok, the Oscar© Nominations are out today. No real surprises, but nonetheless I offer my commentary, predictions, etc. I've seen all but one of the Best Picture nominees ( Capote. None other than Jon Stewart. 78th Annual Academy Award Nominations. A History of Violence. Somehow I have a feeling that the adaptation of E. Annie Proulx's cowboy short story is going to take this, but I think that Tony Kushner's (. But don't count o...

Anders Bergstrom's blog on Words, Films, and Music. Monday, January 29, 2007. ANDERS' TOP TEN FILMS OF 2006. 2006 ended up being a good year for films. It seems that the good films continually get pushed back until the very end of the year, and many don't open in Saskatoon until after the new year has started (e.g. Pan's Labyrinth. Letters from Iwo Jima. And Mission: Impossible 3. Failed to impress and X-Men: The Last Stand. Made me glad to see the franchise end. El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth.

Anders Bergstrom's blog on Words, Films, and Music. Sunday, February 04, 2007. 100 min; R. Is such a work. Based on a novel by Phillip K. Dick (. Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? This film is a fascinating examination of identity, drugs, and a society that is frighteningly not too dissimilar to our own (a theme which comes up in more than one film on my list). Keanu Reeves is suprisingly effective in the film, playing his own "stoner" image. Sun Feb 04, 03:09:00 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Anders Bergstrom's blog on Words, Films, and Music. Sunday, March 26, 2006. I've only recently discovered the joys of the used CD store. Partly because Victoria has stores with slightly better selection than say Tramps back home in Saskatoon. The used CD store is a great way to fill in the "holes" in my collection, which are many (everytime I think about Joel's CD collection I realize how far I have to go). And Blonde on Blonde. I also picked up The Stone Roses self-titled (or. Thursday, March 23, 2006.

Anders Bergstrom's blog on Words, Films, and Music. Wednesday, June 28, 2006. Am I Predisposed to Not Like the new Superman film? NOTE: I have not yet seen the film and this is just based on what I've seen and read, and what I, as a long time comic book fan, would like to see in a Superman film. If Singer's film delivers, I will happily eat my words and admit I was wrong. I'm getting the impression from some that people might think I'm against Superman Returns. As for casting, I cast a Superman who's a b...
