Blogs I'm reading
There is a number of film blogs on the internet that one can get easily addicted to, but just few of them I can't stop myself from visiting almost every day. They are funny, witty, unique and make me lol a lot. Here we are, ladies and gentleman, queerdelys top something film blogs:
1. Ultra Culture
http://www.ultraculture.co.uk/
I'm not even gaining pleasure from it anymore. It's so good it's addictive and I simply have to go on it almost every day (and sometimes twice a day even though there are no new posts added- but there is a random post button). The guy who writes it is one young smart guy and his reviews and articles are always provoking some pre-high laughter in me. It's this laughter that I get just thinking about how good getting high is. This is how good Ultra Culture is.
2. The Shiznit
http://www.theshiznit.co.uk
When I first visited this blog I read one article, two articles, three articles, four...seventeen articles...You can easily spend the whole day reading articles and then articles related to them. And this guy's admiration of Nicolas Cage and Mark Whalberg monotonous styles is just what I identify with. This blog makes my day. Every day.
3. Picturehouse Podcast
http://picturehouseblog.co.uk/category/podcast
I still haven't met these guys and I still want to. They are witty, from London and all about films. It's a friendly conversation about the movies and this is what I want just before I see anything at the cinema. They are always positive, even when they are negative. And their Oscar special was better than what you get from any other media.
4. The Incredible Suit
http://theincrediblesuit.blogspot.com
I like this blog because it tends to be so specific sometimes that it's like reading about one background character in a movie. It's good, it's funny and it's hugely entertaining. Most importantly, it's a blog on blogspot, so it gives hope to people like me that you don't have to own a website for people to like you. True?
5. Lawrence and Julie and Julia
http://lawrenceandjulieandjulia.blogspot.com
Fucking hell, this guy is torturing himself for our entertainment. I don't know how you can ignore him. He is watching Julie and Julia every day for a year, the film I couldn't watch once because it's just so fucking irritating it just makes me swear too much. But this guy sacrifies himself. I hope he will still have mental stability in a year.
So that's it. My top 5 (it seems) film blogs I read notoriously. I would love to find more so suggest them in comments if you have any recommendations.

Super rip off
What if we take a not-that-charming forty year old, a crying Arwen on drugs and nymphomaniac Ellen Page and put them all in a total rip off of Kick Ass? Well, I think we will get a bad rip off of Kick Ass.
Super is not super. It has a potential (or giving it its right name, it’s ripping off already existing script), it has some good acting and it has some nice graphical editing. But besides that it literally has nothing. Except for two rape scenes, on of which I might never forget about.
It tries to be smart and witty, but it turns out absurd and ugly. I have nothing against violence in the movies, actually I am a big fan of gore horror films, but if violence is the only thing that takes Super one step further from Kick Ass, then I will just say thank you very much for a free film but I am never willing to pay anything for your dvd release. And it’s sad because Kick Ass is definitely one of my favourite films. When I went to see Super I still hoped it is just the inspiration that they took from Kick Ass, but I promise, they literally use the same lines.
I can’t be bothered to spend time describing the plot because it’s basically

and it makes me so angry
but the only different lies in (as I have already said), the amount of violence
Super has this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44rUlHYg-MU
and under these circumstances it seems it has been written.
Do I hate it? Of course I don’t. I am just indifferent towards bad rip offs.
I hate you, James Gunn.
You and your Scooby Doo 2 film. If you at least did the first one, I might have had some respect left.
Fuck you.

The Wisest Man on Earth
I've just seen The Weather Man, and as expected it tries hard to be indie and real, but is simply one of many Nicolas Cage's dramatic tries.
It is a story of Nicolas Cage cursing and being sad. He has an overweight daughter and molested son, his wife obviously hates him and although he is a successful weather man, people throw fast food at him. So the film would be quickly forgotten by me, except one man. And that is officially the smartest, wisest and the most eloquent man on Earth. Let me introduce you to the man who survived Jaws 3, the man who although has British accent manages to produce oscar winning American children. Ladies and Gentleman,
Michael Caine.
Even when he speaks of camel toes and sucking dicks, he sounds like a respectful scientist. We salute you, Sir!

It's probably wrong to promote websites so popular, but this one is a true gem within them all. You basically spend the whole night clicking on moving posters trying to push Sin City from number one place on your top movies list. It's truly addictive and you will see more posters than ever in one place. But there's no poster for the Graduate.
And that's just wrong.
And that's just wrong.

Yesterday I saw Saw
There obviously was a script on the set, but I bet it just described what tortures the characters are going through. The only dialogue they had was probably something like 'aaaaaaaaaa'. The characters were probably called 'character number one', 'character number two', etc. because I bet nobody can remember the names of the new ones. SAW 3D is only 89 minutes long and even though it's short, it is still mostly based on flashbacks from the previous ones. I'm not sure if I remember anything, apart from the first one. So it is literally film without a plot. And it's selling well.

P.S. Doctor Gordon is fat now- that is a twist of the final one.
