The giant-sized ZEZTZ has been in the opening credits off and on for a while, so I figured they’d get around to using him eventually.

The Same Again, Only In English — Crooked Marquee When Michael Haneke remade his 1997 film 'Funny Games' 15 years ago, he joined a strange tradition of filmmakers remaking their own movies.

The English-language remake of Michael Haneke's 1997 film was released in the U.S. on this day in 2008. @hoodedjustice.bsky.social examines their similarities and differences: crookedmarquee.com/the-same-aga...

I’m glad you think so!

I listened back to this last night and enjoyed the conversation all over again. Many thanks to @derekbgayle.bsky.social and @ickybooley.bsky.social for having me on and tolerating my asides about Jim Davis’s U.S. Acres and Roger Corman’s Poe films.

A ★★★ review of Heartbreak Ridge (1986) "I truly don't know whether to admire you or resent the living hell out of you." Clint Eastwood pulls off the impressive feat of preemptively answering Full Metal Jacket one year before it comes out. ...

It’s after midnight, so it is officially my late father’s birthday (he would have turned this year), and the Clint Eastwood movie I watched in his memory is 1986’s HEARTBREAK RIDGE, which I’m positive he would have watched back then. He definitely had a thing for war movies.

Clint Eastwood Movies I've Watched With (And In Memory Of) My Father The first time I saw Sergio Leone's "Dollars" trilogy was during an all-day marathon on cable back in the '90s. (I think it was on AMC, but it could have just as easily been TBS or TNT.) Joining me fo...

I’m trying to remember the last time I had a bath (as opposed to taking a shower), which means it has been far too long.

You did a great job. All four look adorable!

Recreate the scene where Hedorah gives Godzilla a sludge bath in the privacy of your own home!

That’s like the seventh Howling movie being written and directed by the co-writer of 4, 5, and 6.

…Right?

A big bug, with its own zapper!

At least it’s going to be on a service I don’t have, so I won’t even be tempted to watch it out of sense of morbid curiosity.

Obligatory Hooded Jason Repost

Wait, so Cinematrix will accept a Zoe Saldaña movie that had a single festival screening in 2004 and hasn’t been seen since, but not a two-part Adrien Brody miniseries? What the heck?

Jet Jaguar thumbs up

It was an honor to chat with these fine fellows for (checks podcast duration) two hours and 15 minutes about one of my favorite kaiju/toku films of all time.

a cartoon character is shaking hands with a giant monster Alt: Jet Jaguar shaking hands with a Godzilla

Today's SKREEONK gets into Jet Jaguar's origins in a children's art contest, the shadow of popular toku heroes like Ultraman and Kamen Rider, and how MST3K, John Belushi, and the Democratic National Convention helped make Godzilla vs. Megalon a surprise hit in the US.

What sequel do you consider to be a large improvement over the original?

Lancelot du Lac (1974) / Joan of Arc (2025) / Cross of the Devil (1975) / Night of the Skull (1974)

Letterboxd/Filmsky Last Four Friday

Been an “of the” kind of a week. Also, lots of skull masks and suits of armor, with Bresson, Pálmason, Gilling, and Franco all pitching in.

I just noticed the knight in the green tights has a sword sticking out of the most sensitive of areas.

"You die. He dies. Everybody dies."

The final shot of Bresson's LANCELOT DU LAC is the most HEAVY METAL-coded shit ever.
