http://filmreviewfeast.blogspot.com/2014/10/i-am-feminist.html
Sunday, October 5, 2014. I Am A Feminist. Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley in Alien 3. I assume that my feminist (that is, anti-sexist), anti-racist, anti-discrimination views are quite clear by now, but it occurred to me in light of some Facebook responses to my Terminator.

http://filmreviewfeast.blogspot.com/2014/08/carters-top-50-films-august-2014.html
Monday, August 4, 2014. Carter's Top 50 Films (August 2014). I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.". Just under a year ago, I composed a "Top 40 Favorite Films" list.

I have expanded it to fifty selections this time. I have tried to go on instinct and simply jot down what the Top 50 might be, without reviewing my list from last time.

Saturday, March 21, 2015. Review: Transformers Age of Extinction (2014). Or, Marky Mark is a racist asshole. Believe it or not, this past week I watched Transformers: Age of Extinction.

Which is more than I can say for any previous installment of the Michael Bay helmed Transformers. Fast cutting, instead shoo...

Film Review Feast: Tarantino's Plateau
http://filmreviewfeast.blogspot.com/2015/04/tarantinos-plateau.html
Friday, April 3, 2015. Infantile, loudmouthed American film director Quentin Tarantino in 2012. 1) I am quite tired of telling people that I do not consider Quentin Tarantino a "great" filmmaker and having them stare at me disbelievingly, and. My hope is that this post will serve as both an explanation for my ho-hum feelings about QT's recent work and as a quasi-resource for fans and non-fans alike who might wish to further explore the films and filmmakers that have made QT's work what it is. Of the movi...
