b movie of the week (pod people)

movie geek's more observant readers will probably notice that this entry is coming a few days late. you'll probably ALSO notice that this week's b movie pick has little or nothing (in fact, nothing) to do with our running theme for the week, which was supposed to be all things french cinema related....

God movie of the week (brotherhood of the wolf)

ah, to be young (kind of) in love (fer sure) and blogging while partaking in a cafe au lait. i will confess that today's coffee/blogging experience is way more corporate than the normal muddy's locale- it's barnes and noble, which would be fine except for the person talking loudly on their cell...

limbo pick of the week (french kiss and thoughts on genre films)

or the limbo pick for this week's look at french cinema, we'll be steering away from movies made in france and looking at an american movie SET in france. because let's face it; hollywood is the place to go if you're looking for twilighty neither good nor bad films- you gotta fill your multiplex...

artsy pick of the week (french sampler)

first thought, when movie geek opted to devote this week to french cinema (or, in at least one case, an american film in france): did i have enough material? italian cinema, as i've men tioned, is something i've got a genuine love for. i like french cinema well enough, but have i studied enough of...

current release of the week (paris, je t'aime)

movie geek was unable to indulge in cinematic fun this weekend, due to a combination of laziness and absent mindedly turning the wrong way on barry road from 169 whilst already 10 minutes late for a showtime. well played on my part, eh? anyway, i DID get to check out something that was already out...

God movie of the week (more randomness)

well, it's the end of the week again (finally) and friday once again finds movie geek in Muddy's, blogging and gettin' his cafe au lait on. and it also finds me once again not actually picking a God movie of the week, but blathering on instead about the week's theme and how said theme connects (or...

b movie of the week (catalina caper)

as is often the case, today's pick is gonna be a big time reach as far as fitting into the weekly theme (heist movies this week). we're ready for a b movie pick, you see, and most of the bad heist movies i can think of still stay on the limbo side of things. Extensive googling has revealed some... Sign in to see full entry.

artsy pick of the week- big deal on madonna street

buon giorno! i say buon giorno cuz we're going back to italia for today's movie geek excursion into artsiness. Heist movies are our theme for the week, but just to demonstrate how diverse films can be even within the context of a specific genre, i thought we'd look at a comedic heist film -which...

current release of the week (the Bank Job)

Ah, my movie geekery continues unabated; this weekend, I continued to filter through the usual awkward post award- pre blockbuster movie season, finding what nuggets I may. On Friday, the nugget in question was The Bank job. I confess I didn’t pay much attention to this movie when it came out a few... Sign in to see full entry.
