Strange Moments in Solid Movies: Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head, Butch Cassidy
Though it is unquestionably a great film in my mind, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a strange beast of meshing tones, genres, and storytelling techniques. Dynamic as hell, it has the ability to jump at a (strange) moment’s notice from farcical, tongue-in-cheek roguishness more fit for a straight comedy to pensive, anti-western mythmaking more in keeping with late 60s-early 70s westerns. A particularly fitting example is when the protagonists escape to Bolivia: there, we are hit with the wonderful irony of Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and Sundance Kid’s (Robert Redford) professional transmogrification from bank robbers to payroll security; but before this can be relished, both characters are confronted by outlaws not unlike themselves (albeit more lethal), which rapidly culminates in a slow-motion shootout analogous to Peckinpah’s bloody masterpiece The Wild Bunch. The shift is shocking–as one of such a violent nature should be.

Warner Bros. In Talks To Make ‘THE DARK TOWER’ Movie, Bardem Still Involved.
Warner Bros. is looking to get into The Dark Tower game. That book series by that Stephen King guy, which has been pronounced as a multi-movie, multi-TV season extravaganza. It’s going to be such an amazing disaster, and dammit I want to see this monstrosity birthed to life.

Well, what can go wrong with this? I can’t imagine anyone be upset at the exploitation of the struggling and downtrodden for their own gain. At SXSW this year, a marketing group has turned homeless locals into wandering wi-fi hotspots. I can’t believe people are mad.

‘HUNGER GAMES’ Producer Talks SEQUELS, Respecting The Author
There’s an excitement in my loins for the Hunger Games flick, and almost 33% of it is due to reasons other than Jennifer Lawrence running around in a skin-tight track suit kicking ass. Oh god, that track suit. Unless you’re a dullard-dunce you know that after Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins churned out two sequels. What is going on with them?
