RED (2010)

I liked the bit with the postcards at every change of location. The ending was just just over the top goofy. As for what this show is a mix of, one might toss a pinch of McGyver in there...

RoboCop (1987)

This one is tough - it is an action film with cyborg concepts that made sense when it was released. This is not a movie that has aged gracefully, though...

The Cell (2000)

This movie was visually stunning and still stands out many years later. Perhaps the acting was less than what you would call impressive, but the movie was beautiful.

The Producers (2005)

This funny and elegant movie is a remake of the 1968 Brooks classic, but it is worth watching both. Matthew Broderick does an impressive job in this musical movie as the accountant-turned-producer, Bloom, and Lane as Bialystock. Though following the original with snappy oneliners, it takes out the role of the stoner Lorenzo DuBois - L.S.D. - and introduces the rather effeminate director (first seen wearing a dress) Roger DeBris in the role of Hitler. Will Ferrell as Franz Liebkind is brilliant.

Eragon: The Game (2006)

When I saw this film, the only effect it had was deep frustration and a decision not to read the book. Plot was well-known from thousands of other fantasy books, acting never reached mediocre and the effects had already been seen elsewhere. The excessive hype was an ill-spent fortune.

Play It Again, Sam (1972)

A great display of Allen wit and a barrage of brilliant quotes, we follow Allan Felix (Allen) through the breakup with his wife and subsequent attempts at romance. Totally unprepared and unequipped, he has a series of imaginary dialogues with Humphrey Bogart.
Felix' inability to tolerate alcohol, talk back to 'dames' or slap them around for educational purposes form the basis of some brilliant oneliners.
Classic Allen.

Annie Hall (1977)

A potent classic. My favorite scene would be the discussion where someone in a line at the movies comments on the essence of Marshall McLuhan's work, and Singer (Allen) says that this is not the idea at all - and pulls in Marshall McLuhan from the side of the set to ask him. McLuhan agrees.

Right, thank you. I'll do that. Since I just found the image and didn't make it, I have been wondering: How are actually the rights associated with making a screenshot of an older movie and licensing it, well, as I see fit?

I am a bit unsure how collaborative the site is when it comes to the articles. I came a cross a picture of Toshiro Mifune which was duly Creative Commons licensed, but it seems I can not add it?

The Welcome Topic

I am Morten - I am a 33-year old Danish character. I am a linguist turned public administrator with an IT background. My interest in movies is pretty broad - I am not sure which genres to point to in particular - Pan's Labyrinth was painfully beautiful, Six-String Samurai was razor-sharply brilliant, Mammoth by Moodysson was a mind- and soulbending film. I have offered translating Filmaster to Danish, but it may be some time before THAT project is complete... While we are on culture, I also have
