Monday, September 6, 2010. The Winners and Losers of an Adaptation: Scott Pilgrim Edition. So after my second viewing (and a shower) of Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. I was inspired to write this post. Now a disclaimer: if you talk of oh the book was better than the movie kind of talk I will shoot you in the eyes and pour acid in the sockets. We aren't doing 7th grade book reports anymore. The illustration for Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. Let's start with the losers! Well they are basically just another st...

Wednesday, March 10, 2010. Why Is a Raven Like a Writing Desk? The answer: because Linda Woolverton cannot write Lewis Carroll's characters, or think of any new dialogue. In the aftermath of watching the new Alice in Wonderland. And the purpose-driven characters with morals and desires (yeah, this is NOT Carroll's Wonderland), we made a list for Mr. Burton. 2010) Tim Burton's 6 Impossible Things Before Breakfast:. 1) Do not cast Johnny Depp in the film. 2) Do not cast Helena Bonham Carter in the film.

Casual Tie Friday for Raptors: People Looking At Art (a photo series)
http://casualtiefridayforraptors.blogspot.com/2010/02/people-looking-at-art-photo-series.html
Wednesday, February 17, 2010. People Looking At Art (a photo series). Not really film related.sort of.anyway read onward! As I got swallowed up by the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) while in New York City this past December I noticed a lot of people taking photographs of paintings.I found this a bit odd (although I soon became just as guilty). Why do we feel the need to photograph paintings? Are we going to print it huge at home and use it as a masterpiece doppelganger? Proof to our more skeptical friends?

Casual Tie Friday for Raptors: April 2010

Monday, April 5, 2010. Trailer Comment Weekly, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. The much-anticipated trailer was unleashed on the universe last week to much excitement and hoopla (that week the final volume of the graphic novel series the film is based on was also announced). So without further ado (if you haven’t seen it yet):. And now, the reactions! I do rather like the visual aesthetic though, nice to see someone going full-throttle with the visual iconography of an actual comic book. Scott Pilgrim vs...

Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Transmutation-Flaw: The Faux-pa of Remaking the Icon. Standing in front of the movie theatre, staring hopelessly at the showings board, I know it's been a long Friday. I know because I must have traveled back in time, somewhere between 1951 and 1984. The obviously post-Millenium light-board flickering with advertisements and showtimes is riddled with remade fanfare. Clash of the Titans. Disney's Alice in Wonderland. A Nightmare on Elm Street. Death at a Funeral. Or early Gregg on CSI.

Friday, February 19, 2010. The Wolfman's Claws: A Rebuttle. WARNING: This post includes some spoilers as well as prolific, overstated sarcasm*. I am mildly appalled. Is this all we care about anymore? Have we become so anesthetized to big budget that we no longer appreciate the base wonder of a conventional horror film? I want to take a trip back to the 1930s. Specifically 1931, the release of Tod Browning's Dracula. So, ten years later, the original Wolfman. Might I add both films were Universal releases.

Casual Tie Friday for Raptors: January 2010

Saturday, January 30, 2010. Worst Movies of 2009. I personally am not brave enough to see movies that seem like stinkers from miles away, but my colleagues willingly and sometimes unwillingly exposed themselves to big budget flops, over-indulgent epics and more. Bring on the shitstorm! Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience. Or how about Couple's Retreat? Because, c'mon, that's redundant, right? Ninjas are, by definition, assassins. Ooh, hey, oh! Oh look out, dere's a bawm! The filmmakers are actually...
