The Neverending Story (Petersen, 1984)
My Life in Movies (Free subscription) | 27/10/2009
As a kid growing up in the 1980’s, I was exposed to most of the popular films of the decade–at least the ones I was allowed to watch. When Joe Valdez first posted notice of The Class of ‘84 Blogathon, I quickly thought of all the movies I grew up on. I was surprised to [...]

Entertainment Wins More Ground on Television
Net News Publisher (Free subscription) | 22/10/2009
The first time I had a cable feed delivered to my home (a condominium in Stamford, Connecticut), the thing I enjoyed most was the Headline News channel run by CNN. This was before HBO offerings were particularly interesting; and, while “A&E” still stood for “arts and entertainment,” the arts programming [...]

Story Behind 'Whiteout' More Interesting Than 'Whiteout'
Cinematical (Free subscription) | 13/09/2009
The Antarctic murder mystery Whiteout was a wipe-out this weekend, with almost universally negative reviews and a sixth-place debut at the box office. The movie's lousy -- here's Cinematical 's scathing report , courtesy of Peter Hall -- but by most accounts the graphic novel it's based on, written by Greg Rucka and drawn by Steve Lieber, is pretty good. In conjunction with that, Portland film critic...

Sara Ryan (Free subscription) | 07/09/2009
The word is overused, but I can’t think of a better one to describe this coming week. Okay, backstory: ten years ago my husband Steve Lieber illustrated a graphic novel called Whiteout , written by Greg Rucka . A while after that, Wolfgang Petersen thought he might want to make a movie based on it, but he didn’t. Then Reese Witherspoon thought the same thing, but she didn’t, either....

A quick plug here for the longtime German band MacBeth , this morning your humble narrtor loaded up their Gotteskrieger album on the rickety old CD grinder and with headphones in situ I literally ramped up the sound to 11. This is a fine fusion of thrash metal and old school metal that serves to make the nerves tingle leaving the listener sitting up begging for more. For your humble narrator has a...

Wolfgang Petersen Directing a Live-Action Paprika Remake?
FirstShowing.net (Free subscription) | 11/08/2009
Where has he been hiding? Wolfgang Petersen, the other German action movie director (not Roland Emmerich), hasn't directed anything since Poseidon back in 2006. He's attached to an alien movie called Uprising at Sony, but there hasn't been any movement on that for a while (as far as I know). Moviehole is reporting (without many details at all) that Petersen is attached to direct a live-action version...
