Aquaman
hey Lick, maybe the above post is from Beth Acamondo. She's a DC and Marvel fangirl.— December 31, 2018 7:48 p.m.
Six-figure incompetence at Lincoln High
Travel a little ways south, you will find overpaid administrators too and apparently fraud as well. Much in the way of top-heavy and nepotism.— December 31, 2018 7:31 p.m.
Vice
The first hour was fast-paced and right-on-target, but after the faux ending, it takes a noesdive into preaching to the choir, and a kind of bastardization of agit-pop.— December 27, 2018 11:21 p.m.
Film Forum: The Salt of the Earth -- 12/26/18 at Chula Vista Civic Center Library
Good turnout. Michael Wilson who won an Academy Award for his adaptation "A Place in the Sun," wrote this. He went on to write "Bridge" (uncredited with Carl Foreman, also uncredited) and "Lawrence," (uncredited originally, with Robert Bolt). After the blacklist he co-wrote "Planet of the Apes" from Serling's first draft.— December 27, 2018 11:18 p.m.
Get behind The Mule
Dude, Mr. Marks, I've admired your introductions ever since MOPA, even your Fullerish fetish. But now, whom do you think you are? Duncan Shepherd and his Eastwood worship??? Mister, this movie was a rushed job and you can tell. Full of holes, more than the on-screen bullets. It's like he wanted to meet a deadline. With "Unforgiven" under his belt, Eastwood has nothing more to prove. He's Hollywood royality. We get it, but it seems he doesn't as he is hellbent on cranking them out before he flatlines. Did anyone really pay attention to The 5:17 to Paris? No, I don't think so. Pontecorvo and Kubrick aren't great because they cranked them out faster than you can say "it's a wrap!" Do you really think old people jokes are good writing? He's like almost doing a parody of himself! Any lesser known 88 year old actor would have been laughed off the screen! And as usual he gets his villains wrong. Narcos from Sinaloa aren't going to be going around looking like cholos. They have their own idiosyncratic subculture, with garrish dress and "narco-corridos." Nice to see Dianne Wiest after a lengthy absence, though.— December 27, 2018 11:13 p.m.
Oceanside Mohsen gas stations at war with G&M stations
WHY is it $3.89 at the Arco across 805 on Telegraph???— December 27, 2018 10:59 p.m.
Suspiria
And life "karmaed" him with a hypocritical daughter!!! LOL I recal Shep gave this four or five stars! Well, the 1977 one. On another note, better be at "Andrei Roublev" this Friday!!! One of my top ten along with "Psycho" which was recently at Arclight! Be there or be square, Mr. Marks!!!— November 4, 2018 11:03 p.m.
The Guilty (Den Skyldige)
"What is the purpose of taking an original idea for a screenplay and reducing it to something that would work just as well as a one-person/ one-location stage play? " I ask myself a similar question when I hear cold readings of plays today like at Scripteasers or Word Play Tuesday that sound more like short stories or screenplays instead of actual plays.— October 21, 2018 11:35 p.m.
Beautiful Boy: Oh, boy
Monogram, and I never forgave him for his pompous black spot for Pasonlin's The Gospel According to St. Matthew and the original ROLLERBALL.— October 18, 2018 9:31 p.m.
Beautiful Boy: Oh, boy
And 2015's "The Boy" is a psychological thriller about a 9 year old psychopath's obsession with death.— October 18, 2018 9:30 p.m.
