Disappointment

Maybe I'm just getting old and crotchety. I have seen most of the films up for best picture, and all I'm hoping is that none of those take home the statue. None of them were horrible, most of them were good if not very good... but none of them have that pow that makes me root for them. Last year I would have screamed at the TV if Slumdog didn't win... this year I almost just don't care. Who is your pick?

The Hangover

This is the highest grossing R-rated comedy, ever. That's pretty impressive when you start putting it against the competition. And as much as I would like to complain a little about the R-Rated comedies that I would rather be the top grossing, I'll instead be nice and just talk about whether or not this film deserves it... kinda. There's nothing really wrong with the movie. It makes you laugh, it goes on an adventure, it has a good plot and great characters... so why do I only say kinda?!? Well, because after I left I though, "that was a good movie." That is all that I thought. I didn't think "I need to tell everyone I know to rush out and see this" and I didn't think "I need to see this movie again"... and the worst for the studio, I didn't even think "I have got to get the DVD when that comes out!" I really just thought "That was a good movie." The movie has some similarities to Sideways. Sideways left me feeling exactly the same way (and I've yet to see that movie again, too). In the end, would I tell somebody they had to see this film? No. But if somebody asked if they should see the film, I'd say yes. There is a fine-line between the two.

Up - Got worse with every newly introduced character

Sigh. The first 10 minutes is some of the best writing and animation work ever. It's super sweet and touching and happy and sad and just plain incredible. Then the boy joins the old man and it's cute and fun. Then the bird shows up and I felt like saying, okay, that's fine... and then there was the talking dog. Really, I never felt the film recovered after the introduction of the talking dogs. With the introduction of each new character I started to care less and less. I just wish that the story stayed as simple and sweet as it was in the begining.

Top 10 movies of the Decade ... or 12

(why 12? Because I said so!)

Lately everyone is posting their favorite films of the decade. On one hand I think that these lists are completely stupid, because nobody is ever going to agree on the best movies of a decade, they can't even agree on best films within a year. This argument really hit home when I read Roger Ebert's best films of the decade and it had "You, Me, and Everybody We Know" on it, a film that I would put as one of the decade's worst.

So then I asked "What is the point of making such a list?" Eventually I decided that there are upsides to making it. One is that it tells you all who it is you're talking to. The second is that if you like some of the list below, and you're not familiar with others, then maybe, just maybe, I can promote a film that I'd like more people to see.

Thus, here is my list. I'd love to hear your opinions on it. comments@filmbabel.com.

#12. Brokeback Mountain (2005) 
#11. Crash (2004)
#10. Pan's Laberynth (2006)
#9. Juno (2007)
#8. Revolutionary Road (2008)
#7. Hotel Rwanda (2004)
#6. Adaptation (2002)
#5. Old Boy (2003)
#4. Slumdog Millionaire (2008)
#3. Synecdoche, New York (2008)
#2. Requiem for a Dream (2000)
#1. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

Perspective

Why a quiz on the holocaust?

I apologize to anyone that is upset or angered by this week's quiz or for what I have written here. If you are in any way offended, I'm sorry and I hope that you will return next week.

The other day I was driving home from work and I heard an interview on Fresh Air. Unfortunately I cannot remember who the interviewee was, but something that he said struck me way down in my heart. He recounted the trip his father had made to leave Poland and come to the United States. It wasn't because he was fleeing for his life, it was instead because an American woman had visited Poland and "on a whim" he'd decided to move to the United States. This did not please his parents too much, but he started a new life. Then, tragedy occurred when his entire family, still in Poland, was murdered by the Nazis. He never forgave himself for leaving, although there was nothing that he had done wrong or could have done if he had stayed.

Days later, I hear claims that the holocaust never happened. How can anyone believe that? And that's when I put these two stories together and asked, "Who do you think is lying? Was the gentlemen being interviewed on NPR making the story up completely? Did his father lie to him that all of his relatives were murdered when they weren't? Did his family fake their own death?" It's ridiculous to claim any of these as being realistic.

Films are not real. They can be made to say anything that you'd like them to say and show anything that you'd like them to show. But these films are trying, whether they succeed or not, to tell us of a time that we can in no way comprehend. For that fact alone, I honor them.

With this posting I promise no answers, or help, or even pretend that I can understand. Instead, I hope to honor the Jewish people and pray that nothing like what had happened before will ever happen again.

To everyone, I wish a Happy Hanukah.

Baseball is boring...

Art don't imitate life

It is not fair that good sports are made into bad movies.

Let's start with basketball. I love basketball as a sport, but it makes for some awful, awful movies. There's the exception to the rule, which is Hoosiers, but how many Hoosiers would have to be made to offset Kazaam, The Air Up There, The Sixth Man, Air Bud, Juwanna Mann... should I go on?

And there there's football, which is actually my favorite sport to watch. It's exception is Rudy. After that there's Wildcats, Necessary Roughness, The Replacements... and the overly cliché films that may even be well made but are still a complete waste of time, like Remember the Titans, Lucas, or We are Marshall.

On the other side of the coin, there's boxing. I can't stand boxing, but who can argue that Rocky and Raging Bull don't make you want to start watching? And then there's freakin' baseball. I can't stand baseball, I think it's horribly boring unless you're the one playing it. But Field of Dreams, Bull Durham, The Natural... They make the game seem not only entertaining, but life altering. Even Lagaan made the game or Cricket seem exciting!

What I can take comfort in, I guess, is that no film has ever made car racing seem interesting, not even "Cars". This is a... um.... "sport" (really?) that even editing can help!

He's Just Not That Into You

If you get over the initial meeting between the main characters (how easily it unfolded and was resolved), and you overlook the added-on "plot" of Professor Walter Vale (I hated that they made his character have a story at all, it just distracted from the real point of the film) then you start to get into the film. But even that had things in it that had no significance to me. Who cared if the professor wanted to learn how to play the drum? Who cared if the girlfriend sold jewelry? The story is about good people that try to live good lives, even when their country is trying to throw them out. If they'd focused on the real issues more and caused me to really care about any of them (maybe I'm supposed to care about the guy simply because he plays the drum? Guess I'm a hard sell)... Lastly there is the clumbsy love story between Walter and Mouna. Again, why do I want to see these people get together? They're both total duds.

Where clips come from...

My sources

It first started with owned DVDs. Mine, then a friend of mine, then my sister and parents. Then I started capturing a clip from every film I got from Netflix. Even better is Netflix's Watch Instantly which allows me to view hundreds of movies, skip to any moment in the film! As a last resort, like if I have 8 Ben Stiller clips and I just need one more, I will grab a clip off of youtube.

Clips are all collected using CaptureWizPro which I love and could never do this without! Other than that, I use all free software. Images are edited in Microsoft Paint, the AVI is tranfered to WMV via Windows Movie Maker, AVI to mp3 via Goldwave, and pages are all written in ASCII via notepad. That's either impressive, or sad, I'll leave it to you to decide.

I also owe thanks to my wife who puts up with my spending time on this each week, and those of you that come back each week. Even bigger thanks to any of you who have told your friends to come visit, too!

Featured Review from #40

He's Just Not That Into You

There are several stories going on here. First I'll talk about the one that really worked. Justin Long and Ginnifer Goodwin were amazing in this movie. They were the only characters that really brought any spark to the screen and were enjoyable to watch. I'm becoming even more of a Justin Long fan and Ginnifer is exciting to watch. Next would be Jennifer Aniston and Ben Affleck, which although their story was very thin and a little too easily resolved, they at least showed that they could act and were pleasant to pass the time. Lower we get to the multifaceted relationships between Kevin Connelly, Scarlett Johansson, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Connelly. I didn't care if or how any of these people ended up with any of the rest of them. They were completely flat. If other characters didn't say, "I'm mad and passionate about you", I'd not realize there was any reason for anyone to feel that way about them. Being a big Jennifer Connelly fan, I found completely flat and devoid of real emotions character to be the most disappointing of all. And last, if she even counts because it's SUCH a small role, would be Drew Barrymore that neither had a good role nor did well in the role she was given. But even worse than all of that were the segments between chapters acted by people that were either no name actors (that never should be real actors) or regular people (who should have never tried to be actors). These stupid, horrible, painful segments just killed the already slow flow and appeal for this movie.

Step Up 2: The Streets

I couldn't watch this movie. I'm sorry. I have a two year old daughter and precious little time to watch movies. I can no longer waste it on films like this. I use to love watching bad movies (especially when there's a hot girl soaking wet dancing on the cover), but that's why I married my hot wife. Someday I may have the time to watch bad films again, and I'm sure when that day comes there will be plenty to choose from.

Movie Trivia Quizzes

How to Prepare for One

Movies are part of the glue which binds our modern society together. Whether it is the big blockbusters or the smaller indie productions, as long as there have been movies there have been movie buffs who like to learn all they can about the industry and its stars. In order to test the mettle of movie lovers there are many movie trivia quizzes available. With the powers of the internet many movie trivia quizzes are available to play for free online, allowing you to test your knowledge on your own and challenge friends to see who knows the most. Movie trivia quizzes online can also be interactive, so when preparing for a trivia quiz things are a little more complex than just answering questions.

There are three main ways to prepare for a movie trivia quiz. The first is simply to watch as many movies as you can and also watching your favourite movies multiple times in order to get to know the characters a script intimately. This could mean going to the cinema a lot more, or renting DVDs and streaming movies online in order to bulk out your overall movie knowledge. What is more, watching tons of movies in your spare time is a great way to pass an evening or hang out with friends.

The second way to prepare for a movie trivia quiz is to check out film sites online. A particularly useful site to use if you are looking for details on a film`s cast, trivia and famous quotes is the seminal Internet Movie Database. If you are looking for a lot more specific information about a particular film there are many different fan sites catering to a specific director, actor or genre. Using the plethora of online movie resources is the best way to bone up on your movie trivia.

The final way to prepare is to keep a close eye on the media both online and in print for all of the latest movie gossip and information in current and future releases. Movie trivia quizzes will not always cover just the films themselves and often include trivia about the stars and their private lives. This is also a good way of keeping track of the next big releases that you may be interested in watching.

Movie trivia quizzes usually fall into a number of distinct categories. Some will be straight forward, giving you a question and allowing you to supply your answers. Others will be multiple choice, which in practice makes things a lot easier, especially if you have been doing your movie homework. Others still will incorporate aspects of music trivia or audio clips relating to a film and sometimes they will feature video clips. Online you will generally find movie trivia quizzes defined by the genre or time period covered by the films which they deal with. That way you will be able to pick a quiz that suits your area of expertise, or even test yourself with a quiz that you are not too sure about to improve your overall knowledge.

Children in Horror

We've come a long way, baby!

I'm looking at the movies I've selected and watched this week to create the horror edition of the Burnt Bulbs, and what I realized was there are several that place children in harms way and one or more of them (I won't say which or how many) in which the child is killed. It went from Hitchcock's Sabotage where the audience was crushed to see a boy die in a bus explosion to be almost commonplace. The lesson to be learned? Means one of two things, or maybe both. (1) As a society we don't have the same affection for children as we used to, or (2) we just aren't easily disturbed by violence anymore, so we have to keep reaching more and more extremes. Either way, let's hope this is a reflection of our views of movies and not a reflection of real life.

Reviewing Directors

Review of last week's Directors

Last week's "3D" refered to there being three directors represented in the quiz. The first was Stephen Speilberg. I love Stephen, and I think most everything that he's done is brilliant or at least far better than most. I hope that he continues to delight audiences young and old alike, and make sure to keep making films of all different feelings: playful, inspiring, shocking, dramatic, and funny.

The next director was Paul Thomas Anderson. I loved Magnolia, I thought it was better than Boogie Nights, but mostly I think that somebody needs to reel Paul in. It seems he always has a movie and a half and it turns out to be average, but it he cut it down to just a movie, then that film would be spectacular.

The last director was M. Night Shyamalan. Oh dear. The Sixth Sense is one of my favorite movies, and I liked Unbreakable more than most, but Signs made no sense, The Village was stupid even if you didn't guess the ending (which most people did), The Lady in the Water was just plan bad writing, and The Happening was reviewed so poorly by critics and friends that I didn't even bother to see it. M., You need to stop. Take a break and really work on something for a while. You're not going to get many more chances, so please make the next one count.

 
 
Quiz 31

    3-D You'll figure it out.
 
 

Enough with 3D!

It doesn't do what you think it does

Firstly, I haven't seen a movie that I thought had really good 3D in it. I saw Beowolf and I wished really bad that I could take the glasses off (although the movie was so awful I really wished that I could just walk out). I never really feel like anything comes out at me. The best 3D I've seen was Captain EO, that'll tell you something.

Secondly, something flying toward me doesn't equal entertainment. Why is that so exciting? A movies sole purpose is to make you feel something. An explosion is not amplified by a tire flying at my head. An explosion is amplified if the main character's daughter is killed, or if it's unexpected. I fear that 3D is becoming a substitute for story.

Lastly, it's supposed to make me feel like I'm "in the movie"? It doesn't. It makes me think about the theater, and the chairs around me. Instead of brining me into the story it becomes a pop-up book 2trying to bring the story to me.

Just learned that Jon Favreau is itching to do 3D techniques for his "Iron Man" series. I love Jon, I loved the first Iron Man, so I really hope he realizes the same things I have, and puts his efforts somewhere else.

Rest in Peace

The quote as played on question #1 of quiz 29 speaks of how America had done Michael Jackson wrong. I had always given Michael Jackson the benefit of the doubt, and although he made some wrong choices to share a close friendship with children, there was never anything that led me to believe that he'd done worse.

Featured Movie Review from Quiz #27 - Diary of a Mad Black Woman

Everything is an extreme.

This movie is the highest ranked of Tyler Perry's films on IMDB. If that is true, then Tyler Perry should give up. This film is awful. It's ridiculous, it's annoying, it's demeaning, it's offensive, and worst of all it's not funny.

The word subtle is foreign to Mr. Perry. Every emotion is the peak of that emotion. If somebody is sad, they're the saddest person in the world. Happy --> happiest. Mad --> Maddest. Every scene hits the nail on the head, and here is my favorite example.

After her husband leaves her, she goes on a date with a man that would like to be her new love. He talks about how he knows she's been hurt, but he'd like a chance and she needs to let him in. It's their first time out and they're at a jazz club, when the singer comes to the stage and says (before singing) "This one is for the new couples here for the very first time tonight." and then proceeds to immediately sing (I'm not making this up) "How do I start where do I begin? I've been hurt so much, I just need a friend. Could it be you? Will you break through these walls?"

There is one scene that is good in this film, when Brian's addict wife comes home in the middle of the night and he is forced to turn her back onto the street in order to protect their children. It made me think that Tyler Perry could write, if he really wanted to.

In short...

It's just plain ridiculous to think that anybody behaves like any of these characters.

Featured Movie Review from Quiz #25 - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Don't tell me, just show it!

The story is interesting enough, even if it does have it's moments of creepiness and it's times where you just want things to happen a little bit faster. But in actuality there are two things incredible about this film.

The first is the makeup (except for the baby/doll, which made me laugh). They did an amazing job with all of the ages that Brad Pitt was portraying as well as aging Cate Blanchett.

Secondly, and far more importantly and impressively, was Brad Pitt. I have not yet seen Milk, so I can't say that Brad should have won the Oscar, but Sean Penn is going to have to blow me out of the water. Because Brad Pitt was INCREDIBLE. Imagine you're an actor and the director says, "Okay, you're a 18 year old boy in a 62 year old body and you just got drunk for the first time. Go!" Pitt completely nailed this and every other scene. I truly admire your craft.

But two mistakes really ruined it for me (there were other problems, too, but these are the biggies).

The biggest and I can't stress this enough, was the present day. Firstly because I hate stories that are told in the present to the past. If you're going to do that, which you never should, but if you are going to do that, then just do it at the very start and at the very end. Don't interrupt the flow of the movie to jump to the present. Secondly I hated Cate Blanchet's old woman portrayal. I'm starting to think that she's not a very good actress at all! And thirdly, the present day material added nothing to the story, but really hurt it. The addition of Katrina was stupid and painful, and the "I'm dying, oh I'll talk for another hour, oh wait, I'm dying, okay let's talk for a couple more hours..." just drove my soul into the ground.

Another mistake the film made was the choice of Julia Ormond. She was beyond terrible (then again, her part was horrifically written, with lines like "I hope that I haven't disappointed you" and "I'm going to go see what's happening" (where she conveniently leaves her dying mother's bedside)). But did anybody think that she was believeable as a daughter who just is at her mother's bedside hearing of a man she'd never heard of before who played a fairly major role in her mother's (and her own) life? She was flatter that flat.

All I wanted to do was fast-forward any scene that was set in the present day.

In short...

So the film has me very mixed. I would never suggest that it was Oscar nomination worthy, because it had plenty of problems... but yet I'd still recommend it.

Recommendation

I want somebody to edit out all of the present day footage and re-release this sucker. Then I'd really recommend it.
