By Tracy Benson

Kervyn’s list of Top 10 Video Game Movies got me thinking: while video-game-to-movie adaptations aren’t easy, there have been some that are part-way decent. And, God bless Hollywood, they’re going to keep trying until they eventually get it right. In terms of upcoming video game movies, we have Agent 47 hitting our screens in September, and Assassin’s Creed and Warcraft …

Despite Darryn’s Robert Mugabe mustache and constant attempts at reclaiming our lunches, we’re actually a democracy around here. So while we do most of the talking, we do value your inputs and opinions. Case in point: We’ve often told you what we thought about movie fight scenes – which ones were the best, which ones were the most one-sided, which …

Midweek Movie Mouth-off: your favourite single take

By Tracy Benson
August 5, 2015
in :  Entertainment, Opinion
7

The single take (or long take if you want to get specific) is one cinematography trick that is incredibly powerful. Whether being used to make the movie feel like a stage play (like its earliest usage in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope), establishing layouts (and showing off) like in Panic Room or escalating tension without breaking the action in Children of Men, …

Midweek Movie Mouth-Off: the classic movies of our generation

By Tracy Benson

We all know what makes a classic movie: it has to be timeless, constantly re-watchable and basically universally adored. Also, it generally has to be old. I’m not even going as far back as classic-classic movies like Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind or Casablanca. Looking at your more “modern” classic movies like The Godfather trilogy, the original Star Wars …

Midweek Movie Mouth-Off: Good idea, bad execution

By Tracy Benson
July 22, 2015
in :  Entertainment, Opinion
4

There’s nothing wrong with an ambitious movie, as long as it’s done right. Unfortunately, there are plenty of movies that have had incredibly good ideas when it comes to the premise, but the end result just ends up falling flat. Maybe the ideas weren’t fleshed out enough, maybe the casting was wrong, or maybe the movie suffered from some poor …

We’ve still got quite a few big movies to look forward to for the rest of 2015. If you caught James’ article last week predicting the rest of the 2015 blockbusters, there are some seriously big movies coming soon.  The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues with Ant-Man, The Hunger Games franchise concludes with Mockingjay: Part 2 and Star Wars gets a …

Midweek Movie Mouth-off: your favourite fan theory

By Tracy Benson
July 1, 2015
in :  Entertainment, Opinion
3

I got thinking about fan-made theories as I watched Inception for something like the fourth time this weekend (as an aside that movie is still excellent, easily in my top ten). I love a good conspiracy theory about plot points and details in a movie or a TV show. Granted, sometimes fan-made theories run more into the realm of “what …
