This isn’t new news, but I just picked up the official Grindhouse book (not worth the full price, but it was on sale) and it had this (above) in the back. I vaguely remember seeing smaller versions of it kicking around before when Rodriguez had talked about making ‘Machete’ into a proper feature… but going [...]
When the Southland Tales trailer came out the boss said:
“It still looks like a mess to me, interesting.. but a mess. I want to be proven wrong but I don’t think I will“.
I don’t mind the mess at all just as long as it doesn’t suck. I’m tired of movies foreshadowing every dumb move and [...]

I love it. Day-Lewis looks creepy as hell in the trailers for Paul Thomas Anderson’s ‘There will be blood’ and he seem to be able to do the same in poster form too. Well either creepy, or like he just let go of a fart, tried to hide it, but it was obvious to everyone [...]
OK, buying dvds is a minefield. One false move and BLAM you’re sat there shitting yourself with bloody stumps where your arms used to be. Well maybe not quite that bad, but it’s still fucked. There’s a new ‘definitive’ edition of Twin Peaks being released on dvd this month. The problem being that in this [...]
