Talking Heads cover + American Psycho = Teh Win (Warning : NSFW)
Young Actor/Writer/Musician/Chill Dude Miles Fisher has produced a cover of the classic Talking Heads song “This Must Be The Place” that is accompanied by a dead-on reenactment of key scenes from the 2000 Bret Easton Ellis adaptation American Psycho. This is a rather inspired choice. This song came off the 1984 pop masterpiece “Speaking in Tongues“. And as that song and its respective album are a perfect representation of 80’s new-wave, American Psycho is a perfect representation/satire of 80’s decadence and greed. But it’s also remarkable how much of an uncanny resemblance young Mr. Fisher bears to Christian Bale, star of American Psycho. So take a gander.
Alice In Wonderland Trailer
I know this has been popping up all over the place, but this trailer is interesting enough that even I, not the biggest Tim Burton fan in the world, am intrigued by this trailer. I’m curious to see what everyone else thinks of it.
SGR Episode 78 - Barton Fink
Yeah, it’s almost two weeks late. Sorry everyone. Technical difficulties don’t even BEGIN to explain the problems I’ve had with this one. This episode, we talk about the gloriously surreal Barton Fink and we welcome Melissa to the show. We’re quite happy to finally have a regular female perspective.
Interview: J.C. Hutchins
Strictly speaking, not everything we post here is going to have to do with movies. Sometimes, we just get the chance to talk with insanely cool people. J.C. Hutchins is definitely one of those people. A member of the “new media authors” along with the likes of Tee Morris, Pip Ballentine, Scott Sigler, Seth Harwood and Mur Lafferty, they have all clawed their way into the mainstream press and publishing world.
I had a chance to speak with Hutch just last night and I wanted to make sure to post this in time for his release of Personal Effects: Sword of Blood. It’s a prequel to Dark Arts and…well, you should just listen to the interview. We talk about his start as an author and podcaster along with his new book due out June 9th, Personal Effects: Dark Art.
SGR Episode 76 - Miller’s Crossing
This week, we bring in Stephanie to talk some Star Trek, get a cameo from Melissa and start our series on the Coens’ with Miller’s Crossing.
StarFest Interview: Ethan Phillips and Robert Picardo
We may as well start at the beginning. Our first interview at StarFest was with Ethan Phillips and Robert Picardo. The original plan was to interview them seperately, but we knew that getting them together would result in glorious chaos. We weren’t wrong.
Dog eats heart, hilarity ensues.
Now I’ll admit, I have watched the most puzzling One Tree Hill television program that exists on the CW. What kept me watching was its pure baffling amount of “WTF” moments and melodramatic cheesyness. At times the show feels like it’s the best “spoof” of anything ever. It plays itself so straight-faced while the most absolutely ridiculous things are going on. From dramatic scenes set between two five-year olds to Chad Michael Moore/Murry’s Derek Zoolander-style of acting ; it feels almost like this generation’s Twin Peaks. Put this clip proves that it has hit a new all-time high.
SGR Episode 68 - A Bunch Of News
We finally have everyone back together to talk about the week’s news. This has been in RSS feed most of the week, but Dave forgot to post it. Sorry.
Dreamworks Sued Over Disturbia Being A Rip Of Rear Window
Dreamworks is being sued for copyright infringement for making Disturbia without getting the original copyright holder’s permission. Disturbia is basically Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window which starred Jimmy Stewart in the Shia LaBeouf role. Hitchcock and Jimmy Stewart bought the rights to “Murder from a Fixed Viewpoint,” a short story by Cornell Woolrich on which the film was based. The lawsuit alleges that Dreamworks did not obtain the copyright for their use and that Disturbia blatantly uses imagery from the Hitchcock film as well as almost identrical plot points and character traits.
It took someone THIS long to figure that out?
Josh’s Review: Wanted
Josh’s Score: 7/10
Ever think that you should be doing much more with your life than you monotonous daily routines? Well, Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) does. After seeing him deal with his annoying boss, cheating girlfriend, and horrible “best friend”, we start to understand that Wesley should be doing something different with his life. Luckily, faster than you can say Brad Pitt, Fox (Angelina Jolie) shows up to inform Wesly that he needs to come work for a secrete society of assassins known as The Fraternity, who is lead by Sloan (Morgan Freeman).
