Posted by: Gavin In: Movies

As 2008 comes to an end it’s good to know that there is something to look forward to in 2009.

Crank 2 is one of those things. Check out the badass trailer below.

Yes it looks shit and low budget but you have to admit it does look awesome.

Posted by: Gavin In: Movies

It looks like Kevin Smith is back to making decent films. Some people may be getting Seth Rogen overload but I’m still enjoying it all. Check out the trailer for Zack and Miri Make a Porno and let me know if your looking forward to it.

Movie Review: Not Quite Hollywood

Posted by: Crazyman In: Movies| Reviews

On Monday I saw my second MIFF movie called Not Quite Hollywood. This time my trick of arriving a little earlier was to no avail as one of the ‘organisers’ -a loose term as they didn’t know what the fuck was going on- told us that the movie was delayed by about 15 min and just to rub it in she then condescendingly added that we should enjoy our time in the line. Thankfully this film was well worth the final 30min delay as it turned out to be one of the most funny & entertaining documentaries I’ve seen. As an added bonus there was even a Q&A session from it’s director and two others that had films featured in the doco.

On Saturday night I was lucky enough to attend the Australian premier of the Diary Of The Dead at the Melbourne international film festival. On the night, all horror fans were in for a real treat as the legendary director of horror, George A. Romero was there in person to give a short introduction & 15 min Q&A at the end of the film.

I’m very MIFFed

Posted by: Crazyman In: Events| Movies

Yes it’s that time of the year again, where Melbourne is host to it’s very own International Film Festival (MIFF). This 17 day event will be kicking off next Friday (25th July) and up run until July the 17th.

Since I’ve got a short attention span it took me a while to sort through the usual tedious arthouse listings, but the following is a list of the movies that I’ll be hoping to check out at the Festival. For a detailed list of film times & locations scroll to the bottom of the post.

Indiana Jones IV

Posted by: Gavin In: Movies

I think I just pissed my pants a little. Harrison Ford looks like he’s getting pretty old but from what I saw in the trailer above, he’s still got it.

This took me back instantly to the fun that was had when watching the previous three Indys and I just can’t wait for this one.

By the way, how the hell did Shia LaBeouf get in there?

Movie of the year nominations

Posted by: Crazyman In: Best of 2007| Movies

The fourth category in the ‘Best Of’ awards is for movie of the year.

This year the usual assortment of big blockbuster sequels arrived but generally received underwhelming responses. Pirates Of The Caribbean and Spiderman 3 both disappointed with convoluted or lackluster story lines and by trying to fit in too many superfluous characters. In contrast other sequels like The Bourne Ultimatum and Die Hard 4 kept audiences enthralled with over the top action scenes and car chases.

Posted by: Gavin In: Movies

I’ve been sitting here for the last 5 minutes trying to think of what to write about the trailer above for the upcoming film Machine Girl.

I think the trailer pretty much speaks for itself…
