More Movie Trailers!!

There is going to be a huge influx of movie trailers today and tomorrow.

Opening this weekend in limited release.

Fast Food Nation

Richard Linklater first captured my attention with the movie Dazed and Confused. Linklater like Soderbergh is a director who has one foot in independent films and another in the mainstream. Unlike Soderbergh, Linklater has talent and makes really good movies that are both critically and commercially successful.

Fast Food Nation is Linklater’s second release this year, his first was A Scanner Darkly which was based on Phillp K. Dicks book of the same name. Fast Food Nation which is also based on a book Chronicles the fast food industry and how it affects globalization, immigration policies and other social factors.

The only problem I see with this movie is Wilmer Valderama. He just seems like such a twat. Especially in this interview.

Bobby

Emilio Esteves spent years writing this movie and spent an even longer time trying to find funding for his take on the Robert Kennedy assassination. He ended securing financing and casting a great ensemble cast made up of friends and young Hollywood starlets. This movie seems interesting and may be worth of viewing.

More likely than not I will catch this on Dvd.

Oh yeah, The last movie Mr. Esteves directed was Rated X and it was about porn. I caught it on HBO a couple of years ago and I thought it was really funny.

Not on purpose of course.

For your Consideration

The word Genius has lost its edge. Along with "interesting" genius has been over used and misused to the point where it has lost most of its flavor. When using the word interesting it no longer carries the weight and validity it once had. The same goes for genius.

Christopher Guest, the director of For your Consideration is both interesting and a genius.

Seriously.

If you don't believe me watch any of his movies.

First let me warn you. His movies aren't for everyone. This does not imply that if you don't find his movies funny it means that you are stupid. It just means that you do not share his sense of humor.

That is all.

just saw Fast Food Nation, it's an impactful flick to say the least... earlier today i passed up a sausage mcmuffin because of it. Evidently it is worth passing up fast food for more than the obvious health reasons.
