Waiting And Waiting

Turns out, October is all about waiting. The Larry Sanders Show: The Complete Series will be available November 2nd.

We All Go A LIttle Mad Sometimes

The Village Voice celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first showing of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho with Andrew Sarris’ original review. I likely don’t have to tell anyone that Psycho is a favourite of mine. Hitchcock directs, Herrmann composes and Bass does the titles*. There’s nothing there not to love.

*obviously, this trio is repeated and proceeded by other Hitchcock films but Herrmann and Bass come dangerously close to perfection here.

I hate you. Don’t leave.

I Hate You. Don’t Leave.–a short film by the incomparable Jeff Way. Jeff should make more videos.

Alive in Joburg

Alive in Joburg in case you haven’t watched it. Me and the wife saw District 9 the other night and it was fantastic. Also, Tempbot.

Arkham

A man after my own heart links to this promo site for the Arkham Asylum video game. Awesome but no, I wouldn’t send a loved on there. It’s not a good place. Remember when Powell did those covers? So good.

Raimi’s Wax Wings

Sam Raimi is pinned to direct an upcoming film version of World Of Warcraft. I really don’t know what to say. Sam, you’re a great director. Hell, I’ve even name dropped you in a song you mean that much to me. But World of Warcraft? Really? Why have you forsaken me? (Via @theyshootactors.)

Cinematic

Did you know you can shoot a music video with a Panavision lens mounted to a Canon EOS 5D? ‘Cause you can. (Via Coudal.)

Drag Me To… Hello!

They Shoot Actors, Don’t They with a review of Drag Me To Hell aka the movie I am most excited to see this year. The verdict? “It’s awesome.” Thank god I can get on board with Raimi again. I’ve missed him so much.
