Movie Time.

Some movies has a special feel to them. This is one of them.

The director Jean-Pierre Jeunet (who made Amélie and The City of lost children) has a very special style when it comes to making movies. Somehow he manage to create a timeless world that is full with imagination.

Simply a great movie.

Coraline

Be careful what you wish for.

"An adventurous girl finds another world that is a strangely idealized version of her frustrating home, but it has sinister secrets."

Coraline is a animated movie that uses different animating techniques to create something, hmm... strange. But it is a interesting alternative reality. One to easily get lost in. And I guess that is what this is about. Don't get to lost in an alternative reality! You might not find a way out. Or it's no more than a Alice in wonderland telling kids not go to far from there parents.

And I am sure that some might like it so much that they watch it 420 times...

Mad Max.

I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller!

With a line like that, with a poster like this, It can't be anything but cool. Even though I almost prefer movie 2 and 3 better. 1979, almost the 80's brought us this movie. The Australian post apocalyptic cult movie that didn't only give us Mel but also inspired a lot of things in today's subcultures.

And the idea is not that far off. What would happen if the rockets starts flying and we are left with a dried up world. A dried up world where the one with the most guns is king. It's hard to imagine but one day we might stand there all the same. I just hope that we stop holding oil as the best fuel until it's to late. This dependency on oil is slowly pissing me off.

So maybe it's time for a new Mad Max. Hollywood doesn't seem to be coming up with anything new. There thing is remakes and sequels. So why not a remake/sequel of this cult movie. I know I would pay to see that.
