The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) – Well, it was fifty years ago that Stan Lee and Steve Ditko brought Spider-Man into the world. It was ten years ago that Sam Raimi brought the character to the big screen. It’s only been five years since Spider-Man 3 stank up cinemas and some say that’s far too soon … Continue reading →

Spider-Man 3 (2007) – Sigh… I said I was going to revisit the Sam Raimi Spider-Man films… and unfortunately that means watching this one again. I can’t believe I even own it (it came with my Playstation 3). Completist that I am however I just had to hold onto it and watch it during my … Continue reading →

Spider-Man 2 (2004) – There is no more ridiculous blanket statement that permeates the world of film snobbery than “sequels suck.” If you say that, you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about. Yeah, many series have a case of diminishing returns as they go on and on, but there are sequels that … Continue reading →

Spider-Man (2002) – Okay, let me start by saying that fuckin’ hate fuckin’ spiders. They terrify the fuck out of me. Also I curse even more than I already fuckin’ do (which is a lot) when talking about the evil little fuckers. That being said, I’ve always liked Spider-Man. Go figure. It probably has a … Continue reading →

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) – “The only chance now, I felt, was the possibility that we’d gone to such excess that nobody in the position to bring the hammer down on us could possibly believe it” For seven too-brief decades, Dr. Hunter S.

Wonder Boys (2000) — I hadn’t seen this since it was in theaters but it was on cable [no commercials] so I decided to watch it. This is a great movie. The whole cast is top notch. It strains believability that Michael Douglas could resist the wiles of a pre-brainwashing Katie Holmes [especially since Douglas … Continue reading →
