Film after film: Showgirls (dir. Paul Verhoeven, 1995)

I don't get this midnight-movie classic label that this piece of shit of a movie received over the years after its hard-flopping premiere. The point is that it's neither: it's not an entertaining pulpy watch (not only because of the totally plot-unnecessary horrifying rape scene in its third act), nor is it secretly sophisticated: there's a level of excess that Verhoeven could have got inspired by watching Italian giallo films or French thrillers. It's just boring and empty, which is the biggest surprise that I got out of finally watching this film, having avoided it somehow for the past 28 years.

Joe Versus the Volcano (1990) Review

When Joe who is a hypocondriac is told he is dying, he decides he might as well accept an offer to throw himself in a volcano on a tropical island because he has nothing to lose but that journey will make him realise how he should have been living. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Continue reading Joe Versus the Volcano (1990) Review

Rocky X Touro Indomável A jornada de um boxeador é a que mais se aproxima da jornada clássica do herói, a exemplo da biografia de Sylvester Stallone confundida com a saga de Rocky Balboa no cinema. Em oposição, temos a autobiografia de Jake LaMotta, dirigida por Martin Scorsese por destacar apenas a parte negativa daquela nobre arte: o excesso de violência em lutas eventualmente armadas por…

Up Close and Personal (1996)

While watching Up Close and Personal, I kept having the nagging feeling I’d seen all of this before and had just blocked out most of it. This romantic comedy is so bland it’s exactly the kind of movie you would watch once, sell for $1 at a garage sale and then accidentally buy again years later, only for the cycle to repeat itself.

Miami station manager Warren Justice (Robert Redford) sees something in aspiring news anchor Sally Atwater (Michelle Pfeiffer) and hires her. She has no real experience but under his tutelage, she grows her talents as a journalist. Unfortunately, the natural drama of the news world and their attraction to each other threatens to derail her career.

The problem with the film begins right away. Robert Redford is a handsome guy but he’s not “get away with dating Michelle Pfeiffer” handsome. The dude’s 21 years her senior. It doesn’t help that he starts off as her boss, reinvents her for the television with a new name (Tally) and that when the movie begins, he’s already been married and divorced twice. Worst of all, they have no chemistry. I know the film is based on the life of Jessica Beth Savitch but between this film and Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, I think the Will Ferrell film is more accurate. I didn’t do any research and in fact, Jessica Savitch died before I was even born but I can’t believe this film has any resemblance to the truth; it’s merely a collection of romantic drama clichés floating in a soup of TV journalism jargon. This movie isn’t interested in what it means to be a news anchor, what responsibilities come with that position, or anything like that. Everything about it is surface and by the time it tries to make a point, not only is it too late but what it has to say isn’t novel or provocative in any way so it feels unearned.

The film begins with Sally already a big success and the rest of the story is told in flashback. You’re so bored by the romance you think something else is going to happen, maybe a murder mystery, or a scandal, or something. There is an off-hand remark about a cross-dresser early on, and someone whispers something about a sex-change operation. You keep hoping something will happen. Even if it's bad or tasteless, it doesn't matter. You just want some sort of jolt of electricity to zap you awake. You don’t get any. The meat of the story is the mushy stuff and Sally’s big break? it won’t engage you because you already know she'll survive the dangerous situation she finds herself in.

I can’t criticize the actors necessarily for this film’s ultimate failure. Pfeiffer and Redford are well suited for these roles - they just don’t work together. The real culprits are writers Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne or, more likely, the suits who forced them to work and re-work this story until it became this beige soap opera - Touchstone Pictures a.k.a. the Walt Disney Company. At least the film features a great musical theme by the most beloved of Canadian musical treasures the world has seen: Celine Dion.

I guarantee you I won’t remember Up Close and Personal a few weeks from now -

*Wait*

I HAVE seen this movie before! I just didn’t see the old file saved on my computer because I spelled the title with an ampersand the first time! !@#$!@#!@!!!!! (May 20, 2022)

My thoughts on the news about The Long Walk's film adaption

I have very little faith that The Long Walk will be a good adaption but maybe I'll be wrong! I can dream, and I've been wrong before. Here are my thoughts on the casting announcements and set pictures.

Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson are the leads, according to Deadline, which means they're presumably Garraty and McVries. Jonsson seems like a good actor but an awful fit for either character, and with Hoffman (presumably Garraty) it comes down to how good an actor he is, I guess, because I can see it working if I squint but I haven't seen anything from Hoffman to suggest he can do Garraty. And I reaaaaally doubt he could do McVries. McVries has a bite to him.

Joshua Odjick is Native American so he's presumably Joe or Mike (not to say that a different character couldn't theoretically be Native American in the adaption, but it's key to Joe and Mike that none of the other Walkers understand their culture at all, and only Baker defends their parents). It's odd that either of those two would have a prominent enough role to be cast already, so I wonder if either one of their roles is beefed up, or if Mike and Scramm will be a composite character and Joe won't feature at all. Alternatively, Odjick isn't playing a Native American character (or he is but Mike and Joe are adapted out), in which case I'd guess Parker.

Roman Griffin Davis is someone I've only ever seen in Jojo Rabbit so I don't know how much range he has. I think he'd fit best as Barkovitch but I wouldn't be surprised if he's been cast as Baker or Olson.

Charlie Plummer is Stebbins. I say this almost entirely because he's a long-haired blonde. If McVries is black then book descriptions (and characterizations, let's be honest, you can't make McVries a black kid in the 70s and keep his character the same) are thrown out the door already, but google Charlie Plummer and tell me he's not been cast as Stebbins. Also, take a look at this.

Ben Wang is Asian American and there are no explicitly Asian American characters, so we've gotta guess this one purely on Vibes (Olson and Barkovitch could both be canonically Asian American, but Barkovitch is openly racist, so). From Wang's YouTube channel and some clips of Chinese Born American I found, he's a nice and playful guy (hmu Ben let's get a lemonade, also tell me who you're playing), so I'd assume Baker or Olson or Abraham because they fit that the closest, I guess? But this is unfortunately a flawed way of guessing because actors playing lunatics are sometimes normal people in real life, walking among us, going almost undetected.

Tut Nyuot's a young, sweet-looking kid. I'd assume Percy? Again, weird to cast Percy already because he doesn't even have any lines in the book, but I can't imagine Nyuout playing a character who's supposed to be the same age as Charlie Plummer's character. Maybe he's unexpectedly good at playing deranged assholes like Barkovitch? We'll see.

For Garrett Wareing I'd say Olson, looking through clips and interviews.

Jordan Gonzalez gives me no strong impression. Sorry, Jordan. Feel free to give me a stronger one over lemonade (and tell me who you're playing). If I'm held at gunpoint then I'll say Abraham.

Mark Hamill is presumably playing the Major. He's absolutely not who I would have picked because he overflows with character and I always pictured the Major as a stoic, empty Big Brother type figure, whose moments of charisma and friendliness were obviously just an act. And I guess Hamill could play that, but I think the Major will more likely have a lot more personality and vim and vigor in the movie, if Hamill was cast - he's easily the biggest draw in the cast. Not necessarily a bad way to portray the Major, but easier to mess up. We'll wait and see.

Judy Greer as presumably Mrs. Garraty will presumably be fine.

Set photos look promising, aesthetically. No half-track, though. And there's a tank. Why is there a tank?

There's a Deadline article suggesting that there are only 50 kids and the pace limit is 3mph. But there's also an article suggesting it's still 100 kids so it might be a mistake? If it's 50 kids then that's presumably done for practicality but it's a bad change, the number will either get too low too fast or it'll drop too slowly (and also no 47 and 61 which would be weird but that's not significant). 3mph isn't necessarily bad, it's more feasible, but it does mean the "first into Massachusetts in seventeen years" can't happen. Maybe they'll make New Hampshire the record instead.

Reblog with your thoughts! We've got news, people, and I'm sure someone somewhere is more excited about that than I am. Let's get some discussion going on in here.

[chaifootsteps]

Do you have voice claims for any of your other characters?

Oh god, tons and tons! Here's the relatively short list.

Boo's David Bowie, Luci's adult voice is Adeel Akhtar, Butter Pie's Jason Schwartzman, Ozzy's Matthew Rhys, and Mari's Laura Mooney.

Civ is Joe Pantoliano.

Snowbird, AKA the Light Fury OC I wish I'd led with because if Viv stans are going to squawk about my human/dragon ships it might as well be the one I care the most about, is Tom Hulce.

I don't talk much about Clarel these days, but he's Alessandro Juliani.

Scratch is Ken Page.

Zek's baby voice is a series of clicking noises, but when he grows up he's Nick Backay.

SkekVael, who I also don't talk about much these days, is Christopher Plummer. Adult urVale is Paul Ready. UrSai, who's gotten me into trouble for being one of the more deplorable characters I have, is Bill Skarsgård. SkekRho is Greg the Flamboyant Kid when he's a skekling and when he grows up, he's Katya.

The most deplorable OC I've ever made, so bad we will not be discussing what he did here, was Robert Englund.

And Satellite...I actually have no idea! I've been on the lookout for one ever since I created him!
