Wow. 2009’s events are done, and now we move into year 3. Have to admit, this isn’t something we were expecting or even prepared for, but you know what? We perform well under pressure and thinking on our feet. So that said, what themes do we have for you? We’ve been heavy on action themes these last few months, with the exception of our Special Events, so we’re leaning towards a couple of the other choices, but hey-not our decision, is it?
Yes, we are in face dedicating a whole genre to films made by a single actor. Why? Because he has a body of work that includes: Sudden Death (Die Hard at a hockey game), Double Team (Rouge cop movie…with Dennis freakin’ Rodman!), and Double Impact (Rogue cop movie…where he plays twins). Seriously, this guy was this close to being a gen-u-ine top tier action hero… but he just kept making movies like these (oh, you can BET the Street Fighter movie is part of that link cluster in there)
2 things about dragons:
1) They are awesome.
2) They’ve never made a good dragon movie (but they’ve made a FUN one…)
Q: The Winged Serpent-Reviewed by our own Tom O’Reily, this film has David Carradine and Richard “Shaft” Roundtree fighting an Aztec god…in New York! We’d of course have to follow it up with Reign of Fire. Christian Bale, Matthew “I’m too sexy for my shirt” McConaughey , fire breathing dragons in a post-apocalyptic wasteland….mmmm TASTY. Of course, there’s also the Dungeons & Dragons movie too… (that sound you hear is millions of minds crying out all at once).
Because DAMMIT, we have some fantastic movies to show you if this gets voted! This genre has so much to offer, yet it gets voted down every time (sniff). Black Sheep, Lake Placid, Piranha, Jaws IV, Night of the Lepus, Grizzly, Orca-C’mon people! Respect Nature! We barely even scratched the surface of what this genre has to offer!
Please note that the event will be on January 16th, which is not the second Saturday of the month. While we did book the full year for 2010, some of our dates were already claimed, and we had no choice but to take another. We will be doing everything we can to give everyone as advanced a notice as possible by posting a full calendar for the year very soon.
