The Matrix Retold by Mom

May 5th, 2013 No comments

From a guy on YouTube:

My mom hadn’t seen (or heard of) the Wachowski’s classic sci-fi film The Matrix. We watched the entire movie together and right after she told me what it was all about.

She follows the white rabbit down some… tangents.

Animated with Premiere and a bit of After Effects and a heavy dose of Photoshop.

Star Wars meets Schoolhouse Rock

April 18th, 2013 No comments

If you’re a child of the 70s like me, you grew up watching Schoolhouse Rock Saturday mornings on ABC. Like me, you probably also saw Star Wars. I got to see it at the Fair Oaks Drive-In. We watched the ten o’clock showing and then stayed for the late showing. Well, some brilliant bastard on the internet has mashed the two together and it’s brilliant and hilarious.

Frank and brutal notes from an early screening of Blade Runner

March 18th, 2013 No comments

Blade Runner is one of my all-time favorite movies. There has been much controversy over the years of how it was made, the use of a voice over after the movie was filmed and in post production, and whether or not Deckard was a replicant. Here is a set of notes that rips the film on many of the points that fans have been complaining about for nearly 30 years.

There is a lively discussion on reddit about Blade Runner as well.

I own the nifty briefcase version that came out for the 25th anniversary in 2007. As usual, anyone can come and watch it at my place. This is one version that I’ll never lend out to anyone.
