It’s the first impression of the movie, and you never get a second chance to make a first impression. [...] Continue reading Showgirls – Best Opening Shot Ever? By Furious, on July 30th, 2008 So, since I don’t really get out to the theater, my buddy pacer521 from Politics Decoded was nice enough to brave the masses and pay a week’s salary to catch a new release. Who is pacer521, you’re wondering? You’ll know soon enough, he’s popping up all over the Internet. Not to be deterred by sticky floors and little kids, he’s been gracious enough to give us his review of WALL-E.  Disney re-opened their torture chamber to the general public today — in the showing of Wall-E. Your customary G-rated Disney flick? Not exactly.

Yeah, that’s Leonardo DiCaprio’s production company. [...] Continue reading You Unlock This Door With The Key Of Imagination By Furious, on July 24th, 2008 So, I know I’ve been on a anti-remake jag lately, I’ll try to make this the last I talk about it for a while. I just couldn’t help it, once I saw that MTV is remaking The Rocky Horror Picture Show. [...] Continue reading This Is Going To Get Worse Before It Gets Better By Furious, on July 21st, 2008 Even though this is a resurrection of a dead and buried property, I’m altogether relived that this ain’t no remake. I’ve always thought RoboCop was a brilliant movie. [...] Continue reading They Finally Get Something Right-ish By Furious, on July 17th, 2008 Why a remake? Take Jason and call it Friday the 13th: something. Why reuse the same plot lines? We’ve already seen them.
