I finally just watched this famous Batman fan film on IFILM and it’s pretty bloody terrific. It’s from 2003 and the photography, acting and SFX are all well done. Here’s some info about it on IMDB. Writer/Director Sandy Collora started work at 17 at Stan Winston studios as a SFX assistant. He’s also made [...]

Man, I only just heard about NIGHT WATCH this week from Bruce Moyle, and now I just watched the trailer for NIGHT WATCH 2 courtesy of Film Rotation. Check it out. It’s in Russian but who cares.

Thanks to Gazz & the crew from the excellent Film Rotation blog for giving us a plug today:

• The Movie Show. An excellent new movie themed podcast has hit the scene. This weeks topic = Batman Begins and True Romance. Warning: thick Australian accents ahead.

Well… I just got out of the BATMAN BEGINS screening and Holy Shit! This is the BATMAN movie we’ve been dreaming of for a long time.

Holy Mother of Zeus - “Equilibrium” is one cool SOB of a film! The Cool Shite podcast put me onto it this morning. It sounded so cool that I went out and hired it straight away and watched the first half during my workout at lunchtime and the rest tonight. Maaaaaan! Christian Bale is one [...]

Anyway, I’m back on the front foot with this [...]
