Stills from ‘3:10 to Yuma’ and reports on the Showest footage

I thought i’d written about ‘3:10 to Yuma’ before, but checking back through the site I couldn’t find anything, so i’m either losing my mind or i’m starting to dream about writing blog posts, and never actually committing the thing to the screen. Maybe Solace is all in my mind… maybe i’m in a cough-syrup [...]

So, let’s sort it out, was it real or all just a dream for Quaid?

Reality versus delusion, a recurrent Philip K Dick theme and something we all consider after a few too many shrooms.

Alright you primitive screwheads…

They’ve put up a list of the ‘Manliest Hollywood directors’, and while its obvious people like gun-freak-Peckinpah and Eastwood, it’s still an interesting read. Personally I would have gone the whole hog and [...]

‘Machete’ full movie, and the winners of the SXSW competition

SXSW is in full flow and the a couple of American based film sites are on hand to keep their eyes peeled and their ears open for any interesting nuggets of news. There seems to be a lot of focus on ‘Grindhouse’ at the festival and Rodriguez has been very chatty on several interesting subjects; [...]
