Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow Movie (2004)

I don't really know what else to add to the almost universal praise I've seen all over not only the Blogosphere, but in "real" media as well, for IRON MAN. Practically everybody has responded very positively to its sharp mix of drama, politics, action-adventure and plain old geekery, and I certainly...Read the full post from The Johnny Bacardi ShowTags: movies, dimestore criticism via Blogdigge... continues

It seems that Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow may not have been completely off the mark. According to Venture Beat, Airship Ventures has raised capital sufficient to build their first Zeppelin NT (Microsoft Windows reference purely coincidental). The airship will offer rides for up to 12 passengers out of the old Navy Blimp hangars at Moffett Field in Silicon Valley. Airship Ventures notes .... continues

The teaser for Iron Sky is beautifully rendered, but I have a feeling the plot will leave something to be desired: Towards the end of World War II the staff of SS officer Hans Kammler made a significant ...

Speed RacerA lot of movies, particularly in the last 10 years or so, have tried to blend the qualities of animation and traditional filmmaking, to create a kind of "live-action cartoon." As with most genre experiments, these films usually don't work. You tend to get stuff like Shoot 'Em Up that, in trying to m...Read the full post from Crushed by InertiaTags: film via Blogdigger blog search for... continues

Emile Hirsch is Speed Racer As entertaining as a sugar-addled five-year-old, Speed Racer left me feeling like I'd been in a hit and run with a box of Crayolas.

I'm generally not a fan of live-action adaptations of animated TV shows, because they almost always disappoint.

Live-action adaptation of classic TV cartoon will test your limits for retina-scorching color, loud noise, frenetic action

Paramount Home Entertainment have announced their return to Blu-ray Disc with several new and old titles coming to the US on 20th May 2008.

The Space Nazis are coming! It’s “Iron Sky”!A few years ago, a bunch of crazy Finnish folks released Star Wreck: In The Pirkinning , one of the most famous and successful sci-fi parodies of all time. And now they’re back with Iron Sky , and they’ve brought a bunch of space Nazis with them. Here’s the basic premise: in 1945, ...Read the full post from Opus via Bl... continues

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm not shy about my adoration of the Fleischer-esque SKY CAPTAIN AND THE WORLD OF TOMORROW.

"Swoosh!" That's the sound your brain will make during Speed Racer as it tries to keep up with your over-stimulated eyeballs. The cinematic equivalent of Pop Rocks, this Wachowski Brothers riff on the '60s Japanese animated cult favorite could make your head explode from all of its sugary goodness.

How Jude Law Ruined My Chances To Meet Jack WhiteI’ve been a tremendous fan of Jack White’s since I first heard The White Stripes song “Dead Leaves and The Dirty Ground” and the scope of my adulation has only grown.

Critics have been quick to pack on the praise for the summer's inaugural blockbuster, "Iron Man." Though it is likely to gross hundreds of millions at the box office with a sequel already in the works, many critics seem to be praising the movie for merely exceeding expectations.

"Go Speed Racer!" 129 minutes of ridiculous, badass racingJust got back from a sneak preview of "Speed Racer" the movie courtesy of a friend of mine (thanks, Amira!).  As the first film directed by the Wachowski brothers since the "Matrix" series, "Speed Racer" has had big expectations riding with it.

Tetris: The MovieOh yeah, you read right. Someone went out there and made a movie about Tetris. From the trailer, it looks like it was all shot with green/blue screens and whatnot, kind of like how "300" and "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" were shot, but it looks much less polished than those two movies.
