Cal's Heroes of the East is a regularly updated blog about the kind of movies that often get overlooked or even totally ignored amid more mainstream fare. His focus on Asian cinema and martial arts, with the odd diversion into other areas, means that he has carved out a unique area for himself on FilmJournal that's consistently informative and entertaining.
Season 2 starts with a rather lazy and unimaginative way of concluding part 1 of Shockwave and Enterprise continuing it's mission of the week episodes just as Voyager and The Next Gen did. The unhealthy trend of rehashing old stories. In previous interviews with writers and producers of 'Star Trek the Next Generation' it seems that they were trig...

Tell me about it. This wonderful technology to bring us closer together and what do people do? sit across from each other in a coffee shop talking to people on their i-phones more than to the person in front of them. Travis Bickle would do well to stay away from these wallies....

I was invited to be a guest on The B Movie Cast, a popular weekly film podcast hosted from South Carolina by Vince Rotolo. We talked about Norman J. Warren's first movie, Her Private Hell. I've made a couple of appearances on the show in the last twelve months, and it's always fun. Click on the picture to go to the website for download details,...

Here's a question for UK geeks out there- which of the UK comics of the 1970s that reprinted Marvel's comics of the 1960s onwards featured The Avengers? I remember Spiderman Comics Weekly contained Spiderman, Iron Man and Thor. I seem to remember the Mighty World of Marvel comic contained Hulk, Fantastic Four and, I believe, Dr.Strange. But The ...

While two of the more written-about films released this week – The Woman in Black and A Dangerous Method – are not remakes in any conventional sense, they can't be said to cover particularly new ground either. In addition to the highly-regarded original novel by Susan Hill and the long-running theatrical version (not so much a conventional play...

To Be The Best... Saturday, September 12, 1970. A watery northern European sun lights a crisp autumn afternoon at Old Trafford, where a crowd of 48,939 fans of Association Football have gathered to watch Manchester United of the English First Division play Coventry City. It was also the day where Hellmuth Costard, one of the most important ex...

First up I want to say that FilmJournal has been good to me; it introduced me to the world of blogging and all the pleasure that comes with it. The thing is, when you're a dedicated film nut it can seem a lonely pastime. Friends and acquaintances often look at you with a mixture of pity and suspicion. Enjoying the movies is one thing, but actually...

It's blogs like this that make me think I watch too many movies :( I'm up to 325 so far this year. Nice to see other film obsessed people about, as well as statistic obsessed! Statistics are so great....

No, 'just' 2D. I wear specs and I just can't get comfortable wearing those Real3D things over my usual specs. I've tried a few 3D movies and only felt that Avatar added anything to the experience being in 3D, and even with that film, I've never missed the 3D when I've watched it on standard 2D at home. Interesting that the 3D helped with The Av...

Ndersa une them se ia vlen te komentohen filmat shqiptare per nje arsye kryesore: te mesojme se cfare nuk duhet bere ne nje film. Them se je treguar pak i ashper me kete film. Une nuk besoj se ky eshte nje film i shtirur apo anti-kinematografik. Thjesht nuk eshte nje film i mire. Madje Qendra Kinematografike Shqiptare ka hedhur leke edhe ne filma m...

Megjithese megjithese keta filmat qe i kane te gjitha personazhet brenda me duken si politika shqiptare, pra eshte aty edhe Sali Berisha por edhe Edi Rama edhe Gjinushi e Topalli por nuk mungon as Taulant Balla(...
