A few months back I found myself in a rather interesting conversation about the film X-Men: First Class . I was at one of our local Toronto Blogger pub nights and conversation was flowing about numerous film related topics. Somehow I ended up defending the latest X-Men film. Now while I enjoyed X-Men: First Class , it is not necessarily a film I would usually go out of my way to defend. However, I found myself championing the film nonetheless. Like all good discussions about film, the conversation evolved into an [...]
Securing the likes of Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCapprio and Samuel L. Jackson to star in Django Unchained ensured that Quentin Tarantino would have another commercial success on his hands. And [...]
Red State If there is one word that sums up director Kevin Smith's entire Red State experience, it is "surprising". Everything from his Sundance controversy to his choice in genre has been far from what most would expect from Kevin Smith. Of course this has led to much debate regarding whether or not Smith's gamble has paid off? Clearly inspired by the fundamentalist at the Westbro Baptist Church, and the events at Waco several years ago, Red State tells [...]
On Oct. 4 the Tarantino flicks Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown will be released on Blu-ray. Yay!
One of the side benefits of Quentin Tarentino's movies is that his soundtracks are also almost invariably awesome. He's got a decided soul / funk / hip-hop bent, and it works. I credit him for introducing me to The Firm, Joe Tex, and Bloodstone, among others. But I'm probably most grateful for getting turned on to "Cat People" - a true Bowie gem. Here are my favorites: Foxy Brown - Letter To The Firm Joe Tex - The Love You Save The Coasters - Down In Mexico Nancy [...]

Dirtyphonics new EP "Tarantino" is the first Dubstep EP released by Dim Mak Records and founder Steve Aoki carefully chose them to be the first release on Dim Mak in that genre. The electronic foursome has had their music described by ATM Magazine as, "Dirtyphonics have a reputation for ruckus inducing tracks with heart-stopping capabilities." [...]
The slavery western flick already had Jamie Foxx signed on for the slave role, Christopher Waltz as a German bounty hunter, Sam Jackson in an unnamed role and Leo DiCaprio as the plantation owner. Now Kevin Costner has joined the flick, or is in talks to join , as Ace Woody, who Deadline describes: the sadistic trainer of the male fighting slaves who entertain the white patrons of Candyland as well as the female slaves who are forced to be prostitutes. The club and ranch are owned [...]

Hobo With a Shotgun If the classic television show, The Littlest Hobo , and Jason Eisener's debut feature, Hobo With a Shotgun , are any indication, Canada is filled with helpful Hobos. Granted, Eisener's film takes place in the fictional Scumtown, yet the look and feel of the film is distinctly Canadian circa 1970s. Based on the fake trailer of the same name that appeared prior to the Canadian screening of the Tarantino/Rodriguez Grindhouse [...]
Pop reader and artist Jeremy Berkley gave me the heads-up on a new art show called "Quentin vs. Coen," in which more than 100 artists pay tribute ...
This month The LAMBs in the Director's Chair series is highlighting the works of Spike Lee . Over the years Spike Lee's talents as a director have been overshadowed by his public comments about Quentin Tarantino's use of the "N word" in films and Clint Eastwood's lack of colour in his World War II films. Despite the media mishaps, Spike Lee has always been a director I admire. When I first started to pay attentions to films on a more serious level, Lee was one of the first mainstream directors I can remember whose films predominantly [...]

He was brilliant musician, who helped make Tarantino famous with this track: Click here to view the embedded video. I stumbled onto his greatest hits album, a few years ago, and have been recommending it to people ever since. The guy was multi-talented to the nth degree and will best be remembered for someone else's Saxophone solo . A tragedy, just like the man's life . He passed away, after a lifelong battle of alcoholism had destroyed his body. Check out some other tracks below. [...]
10 Films to Look for in 2011 While reflecting on all the films I saw in 2010, I came across several good films that still have not received wide distribution in North America. Here are ten films that you should keep an eye out for in theatres, or on DVD, in the 2011. 10) Crikus Columbia – After fleeing his country many years earlier due to communist rule, a man returns home with his new girlfriend and a fancy new [...]
