This is my second IMDb submission, after Chainsaw Scumf-ck.

Please explain. Did you write/produce/direct/critique these?

btw, I'm impressed regardless.

Did anyone see what DC Comics did to some classic movie posters?

Here's one of my favs:

Oh, nothing like that, I just submitted them and got them on the site, haha. Commence un-impressing.

Oldboy was alright. Granted, I saw it a full decade after it came out so there were years of intervening hype shadowing my impressions, but I wasn't a big fan. In fact, I didn't think it was that much better than the (albeit unnecessary) Spike Lee remake.

I watched the spike lee remake. I didn't know there was an original.

You might have been the only one to watch the remake, that was a bomb of epic proportions.

By all accounts the original is waaaaaaaaaay better.

Here's what I posted on facebook:

1940: Charlie Chaplin releases The Great Dictator, a point-blank satire aimed squarely and transparently at the modern avatar of evil incarnate, in the midst of the bloodiest event in human history, to great critical and commercial success.
2014: Theaters pull The Interview, a stoner comedy about some chubby, dorky [expletive] leader with a bad haircut and a persecution complex, from screenings because of the anonymous Engrish ramblings of Korean or Korean-employed nerds.

North Korea. North f*****g Korea. They can't even keep the lights on in that country. And we're scared to run a movie.

The worst thing about this is that I am probably going to have to watch it on VOD now, and by all accounts it's terrible.

Interesting piece on how digital storage is actually a worse way of preserving film than film stock.
