I Am Link

--- Til Video Do We Part - FourFour has done something kinda crazy awesome - he's recapped the wedding video of some complete strangers that he found at a thrift store. I haven't made my way through the whole thing yet but I'm a little in awe of it, concept-wise. This is our future? Echoes of echoes of echoes. One more teensy tiny step down the rabbit hole.

--- Anyone But Her - I was all curious about this movie called Retreat that PopWrap posted the trailer for, it's a thriller about Cillian Murphy trying to survive some kind of global pandemic which naturally brings to mind 28 Days Later, but then the Thandie bomb got dropped and my interests dissipated like the flesh falling off of Napalm victims.

--- Sweet Cheeks - This week's round of The Film Experience's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" series took a glance at David Lynch's Eraserhead.

--- Hot Doc - Seeing these shots of Ryan O'Neal being a sexy young thing in What's Up Doc at Stale Popcorn reminded me that I've actually been trying to watch Funny Girl on Netflix in fits and starts for weeks now. I'll watch five minutes here, five minutes there. I'm not hating it as much as you might think I would, given the musical thing, and the Barbara Streisand thing, and the I'm only watching five minutes at a time thing. Anyway it's Streisand that's kept me from watching WUD and missing out on the hunkiness of Ryan O'Neal therein is my point. My loss.

--- In For May - Joe's playing some catch-up with his Summer Movie Preview since it begins with movies out this very weekend - Thor! Kate Hudson Wedding Movie! Mel Gibson Is An Asshole Movie! - only one of which I'll definitely be catching. If you guessed the Kate Hudson movie, I think you should go see the doctor, you've apparently struck your head at some point recently, and might have swelling of the brain. Obviously it's The Beaver I can't wait for. Duh.

--- Big Hose - The only reason I'm linking to this news that I really shouldn't care about is it involves Josh Duhamel playing a firefighter in a movie and that's one more wonderful visual plucked off the fantasy tree in heaven for me. I hope it has many scenes like this one in Backdraft.

--- Ringmaster of Hell - Bradley Cooper wants to play Lucifer in Alex Proyas' "loose adaptation" of John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost. Right-o.

--- Ghost Fish - The dudes how made Catfish are apparently signed on to make the third Paranormal Activity movie. Hopefully they learned some lessons from the shittiness of the second film and can use those to make a better one this time around. Because the simple tried-n-tested formula of just pointing a camera in a room and just making us stare for awhile is still able to unnerve me. Just don't surround that with complete bullshit and you'll be good!
