The City V. 007
February 4th, 2010 by The District Attorney

So the hype is gearing up again; the rumors are swirling, the buzz is building, and the martinis are being shaken. As if there was any doubt; James Bond’s return to the silver screen is quickly approaching. It seems like just yesterday that an underwhelming Quantum of Solace was debuting nationwide. But fear not, whether it is as a ‘special advisor’, or in a directorial capacity, Sam Mendes has been tabbed to helm the next 007 adventure. With such films as American Beauty, Road to Perdition, and Jarhead under his belt, fans are craving a return to Casino Royale form. With that, let’s take a gander at the District Attorney’s latest case: The City V. 007. In this case we will examine 3 areas in which Mendes can improve upon to breathe life back into this franchise.

cemetery junction poster looks young and free
February 3rd, 2010 by The Mayor

Click on Fonzy to enlarge.

The first poster for Ricky Gervais and Spephen Merchant’s first collaborative feature, Cemetary Junction, has been released.  We gave you the trailer earlier this week, very cool.  I like how I can only name Gervais from the poster, name actors are overrated.  I’m looking at you Reginald VelJohnson.

Set in the 1970s, Cemetary Junction follows Freddie (Christian Cooke) who is fed up of his dead end working-class life and looking for a way to escape.  Rounding out the cast are Tom Hughes, Jack Doolan, Ricky Gervais, Ralph Fiennes, Emily Watson, Matthew Goode and Felicity Jones.

crying wife at the movies
February 3rd, 2010 by The Mayor

So I came across this website today and had to share.  There is no easier way to explain it then this, a guy films his wife who just so happens to cry at…ah I will just let him explain it:

My wife cries after almost every movie we see with a happy or sad ending.  One day, we finished watching all 6 episodes of Star Wars (one per day) and she just lost it!  I couldn’t help but laugh because she was crying about R2D2 and Vader!  So, I jumped up, grabbed our camera, and got an amazing interview from her.  I then did what any loving husband would do… I uploaded it to YouTube :)

There you have it.  Enjoy.
