Comment on American Splendor: Being our own life’s comic relief by Chris

The seamless mixing between reality and the actors was, perhaps, the best feature of this film. Paul Giamatti did an excellent job portraying Harvey Pekar; everything down to the voice and mannerisms.

If corporate culture is anything like in American Psycho, I don’t think I want to go to law school. :p

Great blog though. Mila Kunis starred in the second one. It was pretty bad.

It definitely paints a picture. It’s not my diagram though. This was in the movie. I was a little hesitant to put it up actually, thinking it might put off readers, but the pay off is, it might intrigue readers too.

If only people would give this movie a chance… I’ve never encountered a movie that has gotten as much as heat as this one.

Thanks James! What a coinkydink. Existere is a lot of work, but really fun.

The Toronto After Dark was amazing this year — at least the two films I saw anyway (The Human Centipede and Evil in the Time of Heroes). Hopefully next time I can get accreditation, because tickets to these things aren’t cheap.

Great to have found your blog too! I’ll be looking around. Cheers!

Ofelia, great to have found your blog and glad you enjoyed Toronto After Dark! Interesting to note that you’re working on existere. When I was at York, I was on the editorial board, from 1990-1992. Keep up the good work!

Comment on | 500 Movie, 365 Days / Now Playing | Movie 2: Shedding some Eternal Sunshine on concept-driven Inception by Ofelia Legaspi

Dear readers (particularly Inception fanatics), Inception might be ripped from . . . a Scrooge McDuck comic book?.

Thanks for the comment Zak! I guess that you could try to categorize films based on their strengths and weaknesses, but I still think it's not fair to reduce art, which is what I think film is, to its genre. However, I think I am guilty of this. See my review of Salt. Also, I'm sorry to break this to you but Nolan might have derived Inception from a certain grumpy duck .
