Thinking About The Movie Theater Business

[Thinking by Peter Davidson] When the rare movie designed to appeal to baby boomers is released theater owners and movie studios wonder why older movie goers don't come out to the theaters.(Witness the theatrical disappointment of Cinderella Man) They don't have enough customer intuition to see that they have designed their customer experience to be unfriendly to precisely the customers who can most afford the alternatives of DVD collections and home theaters.

eDonkey dethroning BitTorrent as the leading P2P Tool

[Technoogle] (via Cnet) A new study from CacheLogic suggests that eDonkey is the dominated file sharing technology Last year the same company reported that BitTorrent was accounting for more than the half of all P2P traffic around the world, but since then there have been highly publicized Hollywood legal campaigns against BitTorrent hubs, trying to shutdown as much as they can, which resulted in the big decline of the sites that uses BitTorrent. But also it resulted in replacing it with another Technology eDonkey, which too is being targeted by MPAA but not as aggressively, and even then there are other options available.

Every major movie studio is rethinking its reliably humongous display ad buys in those papers because those newsosaur readers are, to quote one mogul, "older and elitist" compared to younger, low-brow filmgoers -- so it makes no sense to waste the dough.

Michael Jackson was still a black man then, and John Roberts dissed him, his dancing and his music. And this before the public had ever been exposed to the bizarre Michael Jackson lifestyle!

Letters of consolation (and weddings)

[here goes] The groom's father explained that his own fabric factories in India had made the saris he provided his female guests. He introduced me to the manager of the factory, his friend who had flown to the U.S. just for the wedding. The groom's father called all his family and friends around to meet me, called the photographer over to have his picture taken with me, gave me his card, and asked his closest friends to also give me their cards.

Psychos, windows and rope

[Gapers Block - A site about Chicago, IL] The Historic Chicago Bungalow Association got some press in the Washington Post this week, with various Chicagoans talking about how and why they ended up in the Bungalow Belt. If you own one of these classic houses, you might be interested in the Bungalow Association's free seminars on researching the history of your home: there is a meeting tonight and one on Tuesday, the 7th. Or, if you just like old pictures, WTTW has a slide show here.

Just One of the Guys - Lisa Gottlieb

[robixsmash.com:: Film Log] I’m not quite sure what my obsession with 80’s movies are. I realize all of their flaws and it’s not a rememberence of youth thing since I wasn’t a teenager until the 90’s. But most of the 90’s teenage movies suck ass, so maybe it’s some kind of backward claim or something.

Halo: The Movie”¦not.

[< f e r o x l o g >] Citing “numerous studio people,” Variety reported that Microsoft wanted a minimum $10 million advance against 15 percent of the film’s gross (meaning the company would keep whatever amount was higher). Unconfirmed rumors also said Microsoft was demanding a $75 million “below-the-line” budget, meaning the studio would have to invest that much money before hiring any actors or a director, typically some of the biggest production costs.

The Consequences of Love (2004) (Conseguenze Dell'Amore, Le) - Certificate 15

[nofear.org] Titta di Girolamo (portrayed by Paulo Servillo) seems to have been living a quiet life in a hotel a comfortable hotel, separated from his family who still reside in Italy. He sits and watches the world around him, and as we watch him pondering the comings and goings of the hotel guests we wonder why he is there, and what else there is to know about him. Olivia Magnani plays Sofia, the regular bar assistant at the hotel who has watched Titta for many months and is seemingly facinated by this wrapped up and lonely middle-aged man.

Now that season one is available on DVD, I grabbed it as soon as I could and have been happilly working my way through the 6 DVDs. Like most shows season one is a bit of a dodgy start, but it also contains classic episodes like “Smugglers Blues” and “One Eyed Jack”.

The Last Samurai (USA, 2003, DVD)

[goyablog] For an American, this is like rooting for the Red Coats in the American Revolution, but only worse because at least the British had some sense of a democratic representative government (just not for the colonies) despite the Crown’s own elitism. It’s like glorifying the plantation system and slavery in the U.S. South and getting misty-eyed over The Lost Cause. This American (Western) fascination and romanticism over samurai and the mystical Orient has got to stop...

The Brotherhood of War (Taegukgi hwinalrimyeo, South Korea, 2004, DVD)

[goyablog] The one-liner take-home universal message of this film is: war fucks people up. The Brotherhood of War (Tae Guk Gi) starts off looking like a sappy patriotic tearjerking war drama that follows the fate of two brothers who are swept up into the Korean War, with the main story line being the elder brother’s love and protection of the younger brother for whom he risks his own life so that the younger brother might be discharged and sent home to take care of Mom. Things get interesting, however, when the elder brother (Jin-tae, played by Korean heartthrob Jang Dong-kun) gets carried away in his effort to distinguish himself in battle for the sake of his brother (Jin-seok, played by Won Bin) and commits a few war crimes along the way involving the slaughter of unarmed prisoners and the like. The better soldier this shoeshine boy becomes””out of love for his brother””the further apart from his brother he becomes.

Kingdom of Heaven (England, 2005, Theater)

[goyablog] I’d guess that three things were stacked against Kingdom of Heaven from getting more than mixed reviews (except from Roger Ebert, who rated it highly, as do I): 1) People predisposed to think that Orlando Bloom was too much of a lightweight for the charisma assumed necessary for the role of the hero Balian; 2) The generous portrayal of the Muslim Saracens (and correspondingly ungenerous portrayal of the Christian Knights Templar as religious fanatics hellbent on war); 3) The not-so-veiled political allegory of the Middle East present; and 4) ””oh! four, there are four things stacked against this film: the above mentioned three plus knit-picky medievalists.

Unleashed (France et al., 2005, Theater)

[goyablog] The speed and pacing of the opening bone-crushing fight scenes (some fights are simply alluded to quickly rather than shown) set Li (Danny) up as a kind of automaton that his master (Bob Hoskins as Bart the loan shark) can switch on and off to do his bidding (”my own guided missile”) so the viewer really doesn’t know Danny’s true state of mind. When a chance encounter with piano tuner Morgan Freeman opens up Danny’s traumatic past and inner child, glimmers of humanity return and seemingly take over. The length of the sequence of his “civilizing” at the hands of Freeman and his 18-year-old pianist daughter allows the viewer time enough to almost forget that Danny used to break backs, crush rib cages, and crack skulls for a living. He loses his automaton quality so that when he is reluctantly forced to kick more ass at the end of the movie it’s done in a very different tone, although the results are similar (he merely maims horribly rather than outright kills his opponents).

More fluff

[The Rantings of Eric Nehrlich] A couple more books from my mindless fluff library trip. Broken Angels, by Richard K. Morgan. Cyberpunk-y novel about a far future where personalities are downloadable into different human bodies, essentially making people immortal. Not too thrilling. But I read it anyway, because it was from the library and therefore free. Astro City Vol. 1: Life in the Big City, by Kurt Busiek. A graphic novel collection of a comic that I’ve heard good things about. Busiek is subverting the superhero comic by examining what the rest of the people living in a city with superheroes would feel and how they would react. It’s kind of an interesting take on things, but not too compelling...

Moviegoers staying home

[~Tech Angel~] However, I do believe that DVDs have made a big impact on movies. There have been many times where we've decided not to go see a movie simply because we were on the fence and knew it would be out on DVD in a couple of months anyway. With the decreased amount of time between theatrical release and the DVD release, this will happen more and more with moviegoers. I remember when it used to take a year or so for movies to come out and that was the deciding factor in going to go see an "on-the-fence" movie.

All films require a suspension of disbelief, but this one is a doozy. Still, it'll stay in your mind.

Revenge of the Sith

[Something Requisitely Witty and Urbane] Revenge of the Sith will, of course, be dark as any film dealing with a character who gives himself to "The Dark Side" should be. There was simply no point where I felt the weight of these long forecast (backcast?) moments. The fight between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader should have been the titanic clashing of two iconic characters combined with the weight of a moment that we all knew was coming, but can't wait to see. Instead we got a over-indulgent CGI fight scene in which the characters go through the motions and hit every obligatory plot-point to fulfill the necessary story-lines.

[Just a little something] At the theatres: Watched Star Wars, Episode III (Revenge of the Sith) and I must say that I found it better than the last installment (Attack of the Clones). Though I’m not a Star Wars fanatic, I do admire George Lucas for dreaming up such an immense saga (and that too, not in order!)I guess Star Wars fans will probably like this version going by the way the movie is raking in the moolah. This is also the last installment, the one that seals all the episodes, so I guess the reception is expected.

[Mythos of a Sorority Geek] Oh well. I’d like to see someone who can truly make it through life without at some point in time offending someone else, or hurting his feelings. Aside from technological advances, I enjoy watching sci-fi because it gives me a hope for a new tomorrow, be it Heinlein’s often mocking vision of where we are going and what we’re doing to ourselves, Battlestar Galactica’s hunt for a new tomorrow and the strength of the human race in the face of diversity, or Gene Roddenberry’s dream of what the human race will do for the rest of the Universe. Science Fiction is a broad and diverse category, sometimes full of hope and sometimes full of dispair.

After finally clearing out my mailbox, it didn’t exactly bring a smile to my face when I came across a message from my buddy Jonathan (and here), who had sent me his piece on the shortage of black men. Jonathan’s a good guy so I ain't mad at him for reminding me that:

Review (not mine): Star Wars III

[Twenty Onwards] The new Star Wars will be the first movie i'll be watching in a theatre in months, because its not every day i prefer to go pay 10 bucks and take a chance. However, for Star Wars, i have spent $11(+$5 concession stand) and will be waiting in line for hours to get a good seat, so this movie better be good. One of the toughest critics in the United States are at the NY Times, but they have actually come out and said this is the finest Star Wars movie ever made even better than the first original one. Its a hell of a Review and plus you can see trailors for all the movies in the saga along with other stuff.

"Advice and Consent"

[BloggerRadio.com] Frank Rich recalls the 1962 film, "Advice and Consent" and reminds us that right-wing gay bashing and sexual hypocrisy have been standard operating procedures for a long, long time. Rich mentions homophobic Jesse Helms' political operative Arthur Finkelstein, who just wed his same-sex partner in Massachusetts as one current example; and anti-gay Spokane WA mayor James E. West, just caught trolling for gay encounters on the Internet, as another.

HEART ON HER SLEEVE

[Clive Davis] . .She then read her bit about Carlos Rojas, a videographer documenting violent atrocities against his indigenous ethnic group in Oaxaca. "Brutalized, attacked, imprisoned and tortured by the Mexican military, the Mixe found themselves without a voice," Cameron read. Then, looking up at the audience, puppy dog eyes wide, she ad libbed, "I think we all know what that feels like, right guys?" From the back of the auditorium came the response, "I want to do you, Cameron!" She smiled and waved. "You guys are so awesome!"

Jackass

[Stephen Laniel’s Unspecified Bunker] My only complaint — and it’s comparatively minor, in the faceof my laughing — is that they could have been jackasses (therebyfulfilling their mandate) without making so many jokes aboutpenises, anuses, fæces (yes, “fæces”) and vomiting.I feel bad about liking it, because I wonder whether I’m infantile.(Answer: I am.) It’s possible to be a jackass — if by that word,we normally mean “doing things that anyone else would considerembarrassing” — without being so juvenile.

I am going to watch the Star Wars movie

[The Fifth Column] I do not look forward to it. I am pretty sure it is going to be the worst thing since I suffered through the second LOTR movie. And yet I will still go, because of the mystical lure of childhood or some crap. Perhaps I shall take the baby red and we will go to a matinee. That is the safest way to avoid the children, although we will undoubtedly be surrounded by people wearing White Wolf tshirts. On the whole, I prefer the children, but the movie is usually marginally quieter when the only noise is the goofball behind you talking about the West End Games stats for Jabba the Hutt. I don't know why that kind of guy thinks that his knowledge will win him the ladies. It is a mystery to me. I don't think that my fund of useless knowledge is going to earn me respect and adulation, even if I like to daydream about finding someone who adores me for my command of obscure trivia. I certainly don't walk up behind the pretty boys at the gym and say 'You know, Julius Caesar had a relationship with a...

Carandiru (Revisited)

[Falsafah] Victor Navas, Fernando Bonassi and Hector Babenco spent three years to complete the script and its nine preliminary versions. The official website stated that, "the greatest challenge faced by the scriptwriters consisted in turning the fragmented episodes in the book Estacao Carandiru into an organic and cohesive narrative". It also said, "In order to account for the human diversity found in the correctional facility, they chose to tell the stories of several book characters throughout the film, in a new narrative model for Babenco, who borrowed this model from the movie Short Cuts, by Robert Altman. Thus, scenes from the day-to-day lives led by the inmates at Carandiru are alternated with each inmate's personal story, creating "windows" in the narrative that connect to the outside world".

Star Wars Revelations

[< f e r o x l o g >] Star Wars Revelations is an impressive fan-made Star Wars film. If you’re still somehow a fan of Star Wars it’s worth checking out if you can overlook the lack of any real acting ability, overall bad lighting and some muddy effects here and there.

A temporary escape from Room 4

[What You Can Get Away With - Nick Barlow's weblog] A few years ago, news that a new Star Wars film had premiered would have got me really excited, but then I saw The Phantom Menace. Now, the only thing that gets me interested in news of the latest premiere is that Natalie Portman’s head is shaved, which indicates that filming of V For Vendetta appears to be going on nicely even though it’s now got a new manbehind the mask.

of women and wrong priorities

[tippling philosopher] Then my sweetie discovered that the Eurovision Song Contest shares this momentous evening and that, therefore, we would have to move the Star Wars evening. What kind of mind works like this? Cheesy lyrics over lightsabers? I admit that Eurovision is usually a lot of fun, but that’s because we traditionally get a few friends round and buy a bottle of red wine each to put us in the ”˜right frame of mind’.

[TenthMile.com] Also, it turns out James Purefoy will be playing V in V for Vendetta this November, which begs the question… if you’re going to get a guy who looks like James Purefoy to play your hero, why the hell would you hide him behind a mask? Word has it from the former Bond hopeful himself that it’s not coming off for the entire movie. Call me shallow if you must, but have you SEEN this guy? I sat through 1hr and 40minutes of Resident Evil and two showings of A Knight’s Tale just to get a glimpse of him.

thirteen

[Edward Fearon] I suppose it falls under the catagory of ‘instructional’ material, designed to show young girls or their parents what happens when a teenage rebellion goes too far. It isn’t a bad movie in the sense that it’s frustratingly written or poorly acted, but it should have been more moving, or at least involving. Wide angles and a lack of close-ups keep us away from the individual characters, leaving the focus on their strained relationships instead. It quickly became clear that this movie wasn’t aimed at me, but I should still have been able to appreciate its value to another audience and I couldn’t.

The Interpreter

[Edward Fearon] It was the most satisfied I have been coming out of the cinema in quite a while. Sean Penn gives a compelling performance as the recently bereaved secret service agent Tobin Keller, investigating the dubious eponymous interpreter, Silvia Broome (Kidman). The story really kept me interested from start to finish, and there were none of the usual “but why?” and “that would never happen” exasperations that movies in this genre usually incite in me. It had an excellent blend of the political with the personal, without blustering moral diatribes or maudlin sentimentality.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

[Edward Fearon] As a fan of the original radio play, the books and the television series, I have been very keen not to judge the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy Movie too harshly before I see it. After all, it was not only sanctioned, but concieved and almost completely written by Douglas Adams before his death. The more I hear about how it has been recieved, the more difficult it is to not expect dissapointment, but hopefully I will enjoy it, when I see it early next week. Here’s hoping…

Firefly: Serenity sneak preview tickets for Thursday, May 26th now on sale for Seattle! and other cities!

[Jacqueline Mackie Paisley Passey] For those of you who didn't see this post until after everything was over, I'd posted a list of cities, links to buy tickets, and rumors about the May 26th sneak preview screenings for the Firefly movie Serenity. Tickets started selling around 3 or 4 AM Pacific time for Seattle with other cities added throughout the morning but the official website was not being updated. Lots of scattered information was being posted to various fan message boards but there was no central collection of links and information. So I took it upon myself to create it! It was a wild ride as I updated this post with new information every 10-15 minutes all morning until the official site started updating again this afternoon.

Octopus 2 Reviewed

[Divester] Octopus 2 Reviewed Posted May 9, 2005, 3:14 PM ET by Willy Volk Filed under: Atlantic, Boat, Media, Stories This weekend I had the, uh, good fortune to watch Octopus 2. I never saw the first Octopus; no matter. The story: after innocent people disappear, a scuba-diving New York Harbor Patrol cop named Nick (who always looks as though he's just been insulted) begins to believe a giant, man-eating octopus is terrorizing the city. Nick has to save the city before the octopus - which has grown large enough to overturn a four-ton tugboat - attacks 4th of July revelers in the East River. Surprisingly, the scuba scenes were realistic, but that’s about where the realism ends (e.g., If excess amounts of Silenium in the city’s harbor caused the octopus to mutate, why didn’t it also affect Nick?) However, for a cheesy Saturday night horror showing, it was great. I rate it: a solid B. Has anybody else seen this movie? Favorite line: “For Christ’s sake: we’re talking...

so then the death star is really an enormous elephant?

[TIFI] The ultimate reference comes in the climactic duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi on the planet of Mustafar, which seems to have long ago failed in its struggle against global warming. "If you're not with me, you're my enemy," Anakin shouts to Obi-Wan, who responds: "Only a Sith lord deals in absolutes." Yes, and so, it would seem, do neo-cons.

Kung Fu Hustle (Hong Kong, 2004, Theater)

[goyablog] In 1930s Shanghai, the ruthless Axe Gang takes on the residents of the Pig Sty Alley slum, where lurks several Kung Fu masters to defend the ordinary folks. The Axe Gang gets their collective asses kicked, so they hire Kung Fu masters of their own. And just when you thought you’ve seen the ultimate fight, another hits you in the face, making you wince and laugh at the same time–”cracking up” has never been better used to describe my reaction to the film. If you’re not into HK martial arts action comedy, you will just think it is stupid in the way I always thought Benny Hill was stupid.
