MoovyBoovy: April 2013
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Tuesday, April 30, 2013. High Confidence Trailer for 'Violet and Daisy'. Directed by Geoffrey Fletcher, who wrote 'Precious' and, apparently, learned to handle actors very nicely from Lee Daniels. Only problem is this wrapped in 2011, so there may be concerns. Maybe not, though. On the flip side there's Saoirse Ronan, Alexis Bledel, and James Gandolfini. At the very least this is must-know, must-rent. Trailer is smooth like a fine Scotch (no ice please). If you mis...

MoovyBoovy: August 2012
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Friday, August 31, 2012. Flags and Muscle Car Poster for 'Killing Them Softly'. Certainly better than the last effort. But so unsubtle it's, well, laughable. This poster has devolved from a remarkable conceptual graphic to a literal-minded reminder to, now, a patriotic all-American (or anti-American), shotgun toting one sheet for what looks like a TV series debut. And, "In America you're on your own? Kill the next guy with a shotgun or he'll kill you? The movie has...

MoovyBoovy: October 2012
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Yeah Push 'Star Wars 7' Back a Couple Years. Makes Sense. I like the sound of that. Joss Whedon is currently leading most polls (I've seen one but it's all they're talking about) to direct Disney's new 'Star Wars' movie (get used to the sound of it - Disney's 'Star Wars'). Sure I like that. Really, is there anyone else that could do the job? JJ Abrams, maybe. Nah. Megan Fox for Acer. Witch Uniforms Have Changed. Another Bad Light Fixture.

MoovyBoovy: July 2013
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Wednesday, July 31, 2013. Based on the book. Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10" by Marcus Luttrell. Trailer doesn't quite click. The pieces don't snap together and a couple are missing. However, ' Lone Survivor' looks excellent. Universal likes it. Slated for a December 27th release. Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10. You can see more at a site.

MoovyBoovy: February 2013
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Thursday, February 28, 2013. New Trailer for 'Oblivion'. Actually, I had doubts after the first trailer. Came off dry, even plodding, too conceptual. But this trailer looks like it's for a different movie. Wow. Searching for Sugar Man' Shot In Part On An iPhone. When director Malik Bendjelloul ran out of money to buy film he shot footage on an iPhone and gave it a retro look using a $1 app. Whatever you gotta do. Searching for Sugar Man. Wednesday, February 27, 2013.

MoovyBoovy: September 2012
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Sunday, September 30, 2012. Friday, September 28, 2012. Everybody speaks English. We don't speak other languages, but around the world, everybody speaks English. Worth noting how you can't take you eyes off this. How, from second to second, it's fresh and captivating. How none of it seems to have been done before. Thursday, September 27, 2012. Good (Whatever That Means Anymore) And A Bit Tedious. That was caught on video? Sothis trailer. Good, but very been the...

MoovyBoovy: 'Leviathan' vs The Russian Status Quo
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2015/01/leviathan-vs-russian-status-quo.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Friday, January 30, 2015. Leviathan' vs The Russian Status Quo. I thought I'd put another post up for all my Russian fans (I get more hits from Russia than anyplace else), but really, if you want to keep up you should hit my Tumblr blog. Or Twitter feed @ 101 To LA. Neil MacFarquhar’s write-up at NYT. Has some fairly entertaining bits of damage control. I like this one:. I found an interesting article in the New Republic. Before he was appointed minister of culture...

MoovyBoovy: November 2012
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Friday, November 30, 2012. Clip from 'Zero Dark Thirty'. Kathryn Bigelow is so the man. This is good. Zero Dark Thirty - Clip No. 1. Portrait of Felle Vega by Philip Bloom. This, along with the first trailer, may be the most entertaining snippets I've seen in a while. Nice. Should rake at the box office. I'm In Your Blind Spot. And, I Have Nothing To Lose.". Okay, this tries too hard. Thursday, November 29, 2012. Stoker' Site Goes Up. Wednesday, November 28, 2012.

MoovyBoovy: May 2013
http://moovyboovy.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Movies, photography, and short stories. Friday, May 31, 2013. Both the title and poster have that B feel but I like this trailer. No surprises at first, in fact it plays sorta B, but then there's depth, a hook, a reason to watch. Director John Crowley looks to have control over the camera, and there's reason to believe writer Steven Knight (Eastern Promises, Dirty Pretty Things, Clash of the Titans 3) might have delivered. Could be a good rental. Could be just plain good. Thursday, May 30, 2013. Opens Ju...

Movies, photography, and short stories. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. I Smell Sex All Over You" Clip From 'Cosmopolis'. Trailer for Cult-Classic-To-Be 'The Revenant'. Has been playing festivals since 2009. Rolls out limited in US August 2012. Here's a much more 'indie' trailer from a couple years ago. Rough editing but it's clear the flick has what it takes. Cult fave, drinking rental, but I'm thinking it's got more. This has a spine. Nicely done. This has the goods. New Trailer for 'The Words'. Oh, the horror.
