Fan Rant: New Special Editions I Really Want!

2008-02-03 00:00:00 by Scott Weinberg in Cinematical
...Rant You may find this hard to believe, but my personal DVD collection is only about 600 discs strong. Compared to some movie geeks I know, 600 is nothing. (Seriously nothing.) As a matter of fact, there are some flicks I love that I refuse to buy on DVD -- because I'm waiting for the good stuff. Back in the day, I held off on The Princess...

Fan Rant: Actors and Their Love of DUIs

The Article has images
2008-02-17 00:00:00 by Monika Bartyzel in Cinematical
...Rant They're a menace to the roads, and I figure they must love getting DUIs since there is a continuing stream of celebrity/actor arrests. (Do they frame their arrest photos and place them next to their awards?) It's gotten so bad that I'm sort of glad that when I visited LA, my friend and I didn't drive around a lot. Playing bumper cars...

Fan Rant: Why M. Night Shyamalan Has Nothing to Apologize for

The Article has images
2008-06-09 00:00:00 by Eugene Novikov in Cinematical
...Rant When it comes to seeing M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening early, the best that Fox publicists can offer me (and other non-daily-newspaper press in Philadelphia) is a 9 pm screening at an inconvenient theater the night before release. I'm going to politely decline, and it's probably just as well. It's become so hip to hate and sneer at...

2008-01-02 00:00:00 by Scott Weinberg in Cinematical
...Rant It happens to movie fans all the time: You're watching a trailer for a movie that's almost inevitably a mindless piece of crap ... and wait, who was that? Holy moley, is that Bill Murray doing the voice of Garfield ? (Twice?!?!) Jesus, what is Christopher Walken doing in The Country Bears ? And, more recently, holy crap is that Jason Lee...

Fan Rant: The Heath Ledger Video

The Article has images
2008-01-31 00:00:00 by Erik Davis in Cinematical
...Rant Long story short: A two-year-old video featuring Heath Ledger at a party where drugs were being consumed was purchased by Entertainment Tonight for a large sum of money (some are saying $200,000), and the show, as well as The Insider , planned to air the video in an attempt to "understand why Ledger died." Ledger's former PR firm sent...

Fan Rant: After Dark Grabs 4-Day Release Window for 'Frontiere(s)'

The Article has images
2008-02-09 00:00:00 by Scott Weinberg in Cinematical
...Rant A few months back I knocked the After Dark Horrorfest guys for not booking Frontiere(s) as part of their second annual sorta-festival. I quickly received a very cordial response from an AD representative who told me basically precisely this: "I'm emailing in regards to your article about "Frontiere(s)" and Horrorfest. Basically, I just...

Fan Rant: The Maneater Series!

2008-02-11 00:00:00 by Scott Weinberg in Cinematical
...Rant If you're anything like me (lord held you), then you just can't resist a movie in which an inordinately large and aggravated animal decides to chew on a bunch of random stupid people. Doesn't matter how many "OMG it's hilarious!" comments I may see on the IMDb boards, nor does it deter me if every genre-friendly film critic stands up and...

Fan Rant: Viggo Mortensen is Nominated, World Fails to Notice

2008-02-25 00:00:00 by Elisabeth Rappe in Cinematical
...Rant In all the post-Oscar celebration and hangovers, I would like us all to pause for a moment and remember Viggo Mortensen Mortensen was nominated for an Oscar this year and few noticed. It was almost as if the world saw it as a pat on the head, a recognition that Aragorn, son of Arathorn, could act without hobbits. "Oh yeah -- that guy....
