Trailer: Guardians of the Galaxy

Posted on February 19, 2014 at 9:10 am

One of the most anticipated releases of the year is Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” starring Chris Pratt (“The LEGO Movie”), Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, and Lee Pace.  The trailer looks amazing. I love the use of the Blue Suede version of the Jonathan King “ooga chaka” version of the B.J. Thomas song, “Hooked on a Feeling.”

And for hard-core fanboys and fangirls, here are the detailed analyses from Entertainment Weekly and director James Gunn himself.

A Remake Planned of “The Incredible Mr. Limpet”

Posted on January 31, 2014 at 8:00 am

Richard Linklater (“Before Midnight,” “School of Rock”) is going to direct a remake of the Don Knotts fantasy The Incredible Mr. Limpet, made in 1964 but set in the early days of the second World War. It’s the story of a shy fish-loving bookkeeper who turns into a fish and helps the Navy locate German U-Boats.  The original trailer is something of an artifact of its own, featuring television personality Arthur Godfrey.

The film had some innovative use of animation combined with live action.  And its highlight is this wonderful song.

I hope the remake keeps the sweetness of the original.
