Saturday, September 04, 2010. Sorry for the slacking on blogging. I've been busy wrapping up editing on the Grant film, which you can pre-order from Amazon. Now Here's a couple of very quick rundowns of some stuff I've been reading/watching lately. I'm loving the new Arcade Fire album. It took a listen or two to really get into it, but it's definitely the year's best album to date. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, September 09, 2010. Response to Alan Moore's Interview. I just read this new interview with Alan Moore. According to Moore, the medium was dying before he wrote Watchmen and he revived it, but everything since has been terrible, and now there's not even any "bottom-flight talent" in the industry. And, all I've got to say is it's not a real thank you when you force someone to call to say "Thank you," and then refuse to speak to them ever again when they don't do so. Links to this post.

Monday, January 14, 2013. It's been almost two years since I've posted on this blog, but a rewatch of Evangelion had me looking back through the archive, and reminiscing on regular blogging. I'd love to blog more, but I've luckily been creating more of my own material than writing about others' work. What have I been up to? Here's a brief rundown. My biggest project of the past few years was Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods, which you can now check out for free on Hulu. Now available on DVD and download.

Saturday, December 25, 2010. Best of 2010: Songs. 10 Rihanna – Only Girl in the World. 9 My Chemical Romance – Na Na Na. A lot of the track's initial appeal came from its stylish, Grant Morrison starring video, but the song itself more than holds up as a standalone entity. The anthemic chorus and massive riffs aim big, and give the track a very epic feel. The sheer amount of changeups, catchy pieces and two great guitar solos make it a world unto itself. 8 Goldfrapp – I Wanna Life. Links to this post.

Monday, May 18, 2015. Mad Men - "Person to Person" (7x14). The finale was perhaps a bit too generous in giving the audience/characters what they wanted for really the first time in the show's run. It's great that Joan got to open her own company, but not necessarily true to the story we've seen over the past few years, which stacked on top of Peggy getting together with Stan and the great breaks for Pete felt a bit too fairy tale.

Friday, October 29, 2010. Kanye West's 'Runaway' and Pop Avant Garde Music Videos. I've been a big Kanye fan for a while, his concert at the Nokia Theater is one of the best I've been to, and I've always enjoyed his blend of pop, accessible songs with more avant garde art and high culture influences. 808s and Heartbreaks is one of my favorite recent albums, but I still was not prepared for what he'd bring as director of the Runaway short film. Ultimately, 'Na Na Na' just makes me smile. It's awesome ...

Monday, January 03, 2011. Best of 2010: Film. I saw a lot of movies this year, thanks to my membership in the WGA and the flood of screeners that arrived at the end of the year. So, I caught almost all the big Oscar movies, and, ironically, few of them actually made it to the list. But, some did in what I'd consider over all a fantastic year for movies. 9 The Kids Are All Right. 7 Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance. 6 Toy Story 3. 3 The Social Network. 1 Enter the Void.

Tuesday, May 03, 2011. Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts. It's been a long time since a post, but I've been busy, busy with projects. Like a lot of bloggers, the blog led to other things that unfortunately took time away from blogging. One of those has been production of Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts, my forthcoming film on comic book writer Warren Ellis. We're currently running a Kickstarter campaign to help finance the film, and I'd love your support! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
