Commune members Miles, Samantha, Jack, Allison, Bill and Lindsay invent comedy without a script and without a net. They’re ingenious, they’re fast, and they build on each others’ ideas like best friends – which they also are. Night after night they kill onstage and wait for their big break. Day after day day they work menial jobs to support themselves. Continue reading ‘Mike Birbiglia’s DON’T THINK TWICE — Opening July 22nd!’

A week after the release of Deadpool on Blu-ray (review) and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, I was invited by 20th Century Fox to attend a demo event at the Fox Innovation Lab that would help explain the process of delivering what is currently the best possible home viewing experience for new releases. The result was an interesting look at another side of the hit superhero film, which allowed for a better appreciation in all that goes into crafting the film in its life both before and after its theatrical release.

As I’m sure many of you are aware, Shane Black, the mastermind behind the very first Predator film is currently in the writing stages of bringing us a sequel titled, “The Predator”. Based on what he’s said so far, this just might be the movie that all of us die-hard fans have been waiting for! The last Predator film that truly encapsulated everything that we’ve grown to love about the character, was Predator 2. Since then, we’ve gotten some predictable and ham-fisted attempts at upping the stakes by pitting him against the Xenomorph in Alien vs Predator, or when they made a watered down version of the first film with Predators.

Get your wallets ready, because the Criterion Collection is about to have one hell of a month. Orson Welles will preside over Criterion’s incredible August lineup. First, Chimes at Midnight, Welles’s monumental Shakespeare adaptation—for decades, one of the world’s most sought-after lost films—in a gorgeous new restoration straight from Janus Films’ successful theatrical run. Meanwhile, Welles’s The Immortal Story, starring Jeanne Moreau, is a gorgeous reverie of a film that, like Chimes, has never before been available on DVD or Blu-ray in the U.S. Speaking of dreamlike films, presented is Robert Altman’s brilliant deconstructed western McCabe & Mrs. Miller, among the great works of the American 1970s, starring Warren Beatty and Julie Christie. All this plus Tony Richardson’s benchmark of 1960s British realism A Taste of Honey, still a revelation; Ingrid Bergman: In Her Own Words, a revealing and beautifully constructed new documentary about the life and career of the legendary actor; and new DVD and Blu-ray editions of Hiroshi Teshigahara’s radical and erotic 1960s art-house sensation Woman in the Dunes.

Warning: if you aren’t yet caught up on Southern Bastards you may want to do so before reading on, there are some spoilers from early in the series ahead. (Seriously, though, if you’re not caught up on this book do yourself a favor and go read them all RIGHT NOW!)
Jason Aaron (Scalped, Doctor Strange) and Jason Latour (The Expatriate, Spider-Gwen) announced their book Southern Bastards back at the Image Expo in July of 2013 to much excitement. Up until this point Aaron had been tied to Marvel in an exclusive contract, and the idea of him returning to the world of creator owned content was something to look forward to. After all, this is the man responsible for Scalped, one of the best crime stories to come out of the last decade. Soon after, we were treated with a book that not only lived up to the expectations set forth by Scalped, but actually surpassed it in every way.
