Dave Camp on Film (Free subscription) | yesterday
It’s been years since I’ve read the novel so I can only briefly comment on the quality of Tom Stoppard/Steven Spielberg’s adaptation. As I remember, J. G. Ballard does a pretty remarkable job of fixing the perspective on events almost exclusively from Jim’s POV. Spielberg’s skill as a filmmaker is that he’s able to replicate that to some extent, though bombastic...

October took it's toll worse than I thought. I have a folder FULL of old quotes I never posted. Let's clear that right out... As you all know, it takes me weeks, MONTHS , even years to get to commissions over email, and that makes me the worst person that has ever been born.... BUT!... If you catch me at a convention-Presto!-the commission appears right before your eyes! Just like David Copperfield,...

Happy Birthday to Sally Field 63 today I like her, I really like her. Not sure what's next up, but lets hope Steven Spielberg gets his Lincoln film rolling as soon as possible so we can see Field back on the big screen as his supportive wife.

from the Daily Telegraph 10 The Bridge on the River Kwai The lavish production that launched Lean into the big league is grand, grown-up and full of eye-popping set pieces and moral complexity. 9 The Dirty Dozen Robert Aldrich, 1967 Real-life former marine Lee Marvin has to mould 12 convicted murderers into a crack unit to assassinate a slew of SS officers. Entertaining sparring leads to a dark climax....

With a tantalizing plot that evokes bone-chilling cosmic terror, The Fourth Kind is filled with promise. If only its director hadn't been so consumed with one-upping Steven Spielberg.

Over a year of go it looked like Steven Spielberg's favorite surrogate son, Mr. LaBeouf, was going to take on the lead role in The Illusionist director Neil Burger's adaptation of the novel Dark Fields, written by Alan Glynn, first published back in 2002. But today Relativity Media announced it will begin production on the thriller with Bradley Cooper (The Hangover) starring as Eddie, a down and out...

In the Steven Spielberg movie Minority Report (yes, I make some reference to it about once a week), there's a scene in which John Anderton (Tom Cruise's character) is walking through an urban retail center and his eye is getting scanned as he moves which is serving up custom greetings and deals from retailers. It's both creepy and cool. But that movie is set in 2054, we're not there yet. But AT&T...

It’s early November 2008, and in a Santa Monica movie theatre a teenage girl is huddled in the corner, alone, rocking herself back and forth, like a baby. All around her, 250 of her frenzied traumatised peers are in emotional disarray. Some are yelling out loud, some are yelling at each other. While some are simply pacing the aisles, unable to sit down, or to watch. This, it transpires, is the...

“This is the terrain explored by Philip K. Dick in his classic short story “The Minority Report,” and in the Steven Spielberg movie based on it, in which an official government department of “Precrime” identifies, charges, and jails people on the basis of anticipated actions.” - December 2009: Mark Bowden on Sexual Predators | vanityfair.com

Why do I do this to myself? I've said before that I like Michael Bay. The Rock is a classic action film, both Bad Boys deserve to be preserved in the Library of Congress and I cried during Armageddon. Still the man has fucked up in huge ways. Pearl Harbor is a colossal rip-off of Titanic and God only knows how much coke Bay blew before telling Scarlett Johansen to put more clothes on for The Island....

When the comics artist Hergé (aka Georges Rémi) created his most famous character, Tintin, in the late 1920s, he drew the tuft-haired young reporter in black and white. His fellow Belgian Josette Baujot, who has died aged 88, was responsible for colouring Hergé's Tintin albums for more than a quarter of a century during the peak years of his popularity, and established the "colour...

Steven Spielberg is thinking about a remake of Park Chan’s movie “Oldboy”, one of the greatest Korean movies ever and winner of the Grand Prix at Cannes in 2004. And who better to play the lead role than Will Smith? It may not be official, but after his stunning performance in “The Pursuit of Happyness”, who can say no to Will? Or to his sun, Jaden, for that matter, whose name is, these days, in the
