Now Available to Own Photo Slideshow The idea of an unreliable narrator is a fascinating literary device that seems to play best in the realm of cinema as film manages to trick viewers like no other medium. Upon researching unreliable narrators, I discovered that they originated in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and since the publication of that work, writers have been using false tricksters to guide...

David Fincher Directed Seven, which is one of my favourite movies, and certainly one of my favourite crime-thriller movies. Zodiac was a serial killer who attacked 7 victims, killing 5 of them in the San Francisco area during the late-sixties or early-seventies. He was never caught, but he was also one of those serial killers who taunted the police, sending them letters that included ciphers - coded...
It's been a while since we heard that Eric Powell's great horror-noir comic THE GOON is coming to some sort of life, courtesy of producer David Fincher and a whole lot of computer animation. So where is it? "I just finished writing the script a few months back," Powell tells CBR. "And [animation studio] Blur is working on a lot of test stuff. Fincher is working on a film right now,...
Yesterday, Facebook's Dave Recordon commented on the service that he just finished a marathon session of The West Wing , a great show about the inner-workings of a fictional White House that ended its run on NBC in 2006. I agreed with Recordon, it was a great show. You know who else agreed? Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg . So why is this interesting? Well, the creator of The West Wing was Aaron...
According to David Fincher’s “Se7en” Deadly Sins, we’ve seen the sin of PRIDE (the high sense of worth for oneself) and SLOTH (spiritual and emotional apathy) and how the Wu deals with such vices. Well now it’s Raekwon’s turn and guess which capital sin pisses him off the most. Three/21 presents the final installment: “The [...]
Peter's got a massive Page 2 for you today, but here are three bites that didn't make it. Each one is a small but significant update on a going project. First up: the movie version of Eric Powell's comic book The Goon. Last we heard of this was at my favorite panel, bar none, from Comic Con this past summer. There, Powell showed off a couple of brief animation clips that demonstrated what the proposed...
The Goon is a movie I've been anxious to see ever since the first test shots arrived in March. It's a feature adaptation of Eric Powell's cult comic The Goon about the adventures of a muscle-bound brawler, and his sidekick Franky, who claims to be the primary enforcer for the feared mobster Labrazio, yet often gets tied up in other schemes usually involving the evil zombie gangs under the command of...
Fight Club is now a decade old, but David Fincher’s darkly comic satire still packs a fierce punch, especially on the new 10th anniversary Blu-ray edition. The new disc bulges with extras, including a raft of commentary tracks from its creators, notably stars Brad Pitt, Edward Norton and Helena Bonham Carter, [...]
Brad Pitt (who I’m informed has been cured of that bizarre reverse ageing thing David Fincher documented) is potentially developing a big screen adaptation of the forthcoming shoot ‘em up Dark Void . The video game is about a pilot who crashes…
I have no interest in watching, much less buying, the new Blu-ray of David Fincher's Fight Club because the film itself was always so dark and murky and dreary-looking, as if the final negative was soaked in a vat of cappuccino. Brad Pitt in a third-act scene from David Fincher's Fight Club. Unlike Anita Busch I've always loved what Fight Club was saying about how we all need to act in bolder and braver...
If you picked up the new Fight Club Blu-ray edition, don't panic when you see the menu screen. Edward Norton HAS NOT been replaced with a Drew Barrymore character that makes out with her alter ego to vent sexual frustration. Let me explain: the menu screen for Never Been Kissed appears momentarily when the disc is loaded, then reverts to the standard Fight Club menu. It's actually a brilliantly hilarious...
