Die, Fluffy Wuffy, Die!
NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY! If this blog is anything it's sit-down comedy. I don't break news stories. I rant, growl, quack on and joke about them. If you can't see where this blog is coming from you're an utter peckerhead.

Val Kilmer's eco-themed thrillers

Wednesday, 28 October 2009 12:39 P GMT+10
Was down at the local video store, having a squizz at all the flicks on the shelves. Saw a title that looked like a bit of a hoot called The Steam Experiment. It's about some nutty boffin who decides to show what we're all in for as the plane

It's because they suck

Sunday, 23 August 2009 2:17 P GMT+10
Still more agonizing over our pathetic film "industry". Here a hack poses the old question: Why can't Aussie movies pull a crowd when they are so critically lauded?Answer: because they suck. See, Australian film-makers don't make mo

Shallow Rachel

Sunday, 14 June 2009 6:49 P GMT+10
Rachel Ward, who is now spruiking a flick she's directed called Beautiful Kate, reckons young thespettes should stop being coy and happily nude up when asked to by directors. It's necessary for success, she reckons.  Don't wanna soun

Jan the Actress to play Susan the Singer?

Tuesday, 28 April 2009 12:36 A GMT+10
There are plans afoot to turn Susan Boyle's life story into a fillum. This article suggests that fan Demi Moore might want to play her. Not gonna happen. Even if she did want the role, she'd be totally miscast. She's too gorgeous and

Fantastic Aussie doco

Wednesday, 15 April 2009 12:57 P GMT+10
For any film buff out there, you've just gotta have a look at Not Quite Hollywood. It's a rollicking doco about the much maligned "Ozploitation" flicks of the seventies and eighties.  The doco opened in the cinemas not so long

Van Damme grows up

Tuesday, 10 March 2009 1:26 P GMT+10
Jean Claude Van Damme always seemed stuck in a state of retarded machismo. When confronted with the accusation that his movies encouraged violence, for example, he would get very indignant. "My film are da healthy film, wise film!" he would

Luhrmann benefits from Garrett's sour notes

Sunday, 14 December 2008 3:27 P GMT+10
Earlier, I postulated a theory that a coupla recent and well-publicized art attacks had a deeply personal bent. Arts Minister Peter Garrett, being so conspicuously talentless as both dancer and singer, was waging an undeclared war on performers poss

Moulin Rouge in the outback

Wednesday, 19 November 2008 11:43 P GMT+10
Considering how suspiciously positive many reviews of the epic movie Australia have been, it's refreshing to read an honest, highly critical one. As Mark Naglazas describes the movie, it sounds like Baz Lurhmann is up to his old tricks. Lots

Heat

Saturday, 27 September 2008 8:50 P GMT+10
Have been hitting the DVDs again. Watched Heat. Brilliant, atmospheric stuff. The diner scene with DeNiro and Pacino is just classic. (If you're gonna have a squizz, take a week off work. The movie's about sixteen hours long.)Interesting triv

Who's to blame for Bale's blow-up?

Friday, 25 July 2008 10:03 P GMT+10
This Christian Bale scandal has got me intrigued.I mean, immediately I heard about it I assumed he was the bad guy. But he does come from a very interesting family. You never know, coulda been all his mum's fault. Think I'm being too harsh? S

Stars and bars

Tuesday, 15 July 2008 12:47 P GMT+10
Earlier I wrote about how the names of the well known so often seem weirdly apposite.Kinda applies to the hot-tempered actor currently playing Dubya in an Oliver Stoned biopic. Nabbed drunk after a bar fight, he was heard to prote

Six feet under

Thursday, 19 June 2008 12:30 P GMT+10
This is about as weird as it gets! See, severed feet have been washing up on the Canada coastline for the last year. The sixth one arrived just recently. If this is the work of a serial killer he's gotta have the most bizarre, byzantine profile y

Evolution of the cinematic serial killer

Sunday, 25 May 2008 12:07 A GMT+10
I've been watching a lot of serial killer thrillers of late. I find this a most enjoyable genre as well as being an excellent source of ideas for when I go on my next nocturnal greenie cull.Having seen quite a few by now, I've noticed a real

Clint Eastwood remains unforgiven, in the line of fire

Wednesday, 21 May 2008 12:24 A GMT+10
Definition of artistic independence? Being able to annoy both liberals and conservatives in equal measure. Clint Eastwood definitely qualifies. The mere premise of his fillum Letters from Iwo Jima got right up the nostrils of spunky right-winger Debb

Turkey Shoot

Friday, 28 March 2008 12:33 P GMT+10
Watched notorious Oz splatter-fest Turkey Shoot last night.  It's brilliantly bad.  As is so often the case with DVD releases some of the most entertaining stuff is in the extras -- interviews, "making of" featurettes, etc.&n

The real dirt on Margaret Pomeranz

Thursday, 25 October 2007 2:20 P GMT+10
Just a quick thought on fluffy wuffy psychology:Last night I was watching At the Movies.  Right at the end, just after a scene from a quirky doco called The Real Dirt on Farmer John, Margaret Pomeranz sooked up.I thought this was quite bizarre -

Movie review reviewed

Thursday, 11 October 2007 3:37 P GMT+10
David Stratton and Margaret Pomeranz are deeply concerned that the world is hurtling towards a climate apocalypse.  But I'm deeply concerned that they're getting their intellectual guidance from an airhead movie star.Here's Dave
