Scene Stealer | Collateral “Ready Steady Go”
I like my Cruise crazy.
Director Michael Mann is known for writing memorable characters and putting them in amazing set pieces. Who could forget the epic meet-up of Al Pacino and Robert De Niro in Heat, or the equally romantic parting of Daniel Day-Lewis and Madeleine Stow in The Last of the Mochicans. Scenes like those make you wonder if Mann starts his writing process with an idea for a sequence and builds the movie from there. Something Hitchcock was known to do on many occasion.

Michael Cera’s Favorite Films
Here at Filmdogs, we have a bit of a love hate relationship with Michael Cera. Although he has proven to filmgoers that he has talent, the jury still seems to be out on his cinematic range. I, for one, thought he was very good in Arrested Development, Superbad, and Youth and Revolt, while also acknowledging that he was completely underwhelming and unfunny in both Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist and Year One. That said, one thing that Filmdogs definitely agrees on is that Cera brought his “A” game and more to Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Well, now we can get a look at some of the films that inspire Michael Cera, and I must say he has good taste. Intervals of Awesome originally posted the list which features some Kurosawa, Scorsese, and Anderson (Wes and P.T.). Continue on to check out the list.

Censored! The Best movie Dub-Overs of All Time.
So I was watching the Coen Brothers’ cult classic “The Big Lewboski” the other day, and as a crazed Walter beat the living crap out of the car I couldn’t help but remember the way this film was famously censored for television. The Coen’s in their infinite wisdom had John Goodman himself re-dub his classic scene for TV and the result is well…brilliant. Read the rest of this entry »
