Seth Rogen Slams 'American Sniper,' Reminds Him Of Fictional Nazi Propaganda From 'Inglourious Basterds'Seth Rogen and Clint Eastwood have found themselves strangely interlinked in a conversation about national, and perhaps nationalistic, cinema right now. That overlap is due to their respective films, The Interview and American Sniper, both of which have become rallying cries for American freedom — despite being at the polar end of the other ...

'American Sniper' Complaints Grow in Hollywood: Should Clint Eastwood Be Celebrating a 'Killer'? In the wake of Oscar nominations, Academy members begin buzzing over recent criticism of the film’s subject, Chris Kyle
Even as "American Sniper" breaks January box-office records and revels in six Oscar nominations, criticism over the subject of the film, sharpshooter Chris Kyle, is rising and reaching into the Academy of Motion Picture of Arts and Sciences, which votes on the Academy Awards.
Over the weekend, multiple Academy members told TheWrap that they h... (more) See our archives for more on this unapologetic mass murderer and pathological liar.
Update: I'm watching the movie, it doesn't show him having any serious qualms about killing people unlike the trailer which created some entirely phony emotional tension.
As to the quality of the movie itself, formulaic doesn't even begin to describe how cheesy it is. Overall, I'd say it's a pretty good comedy. - Chris |

Ross Ulbricht's Lawyers Claim That Mt. Gox CEO Was The Real Dread Pirate RobertsIt's pretty rare that a trial has a real "surprise" unveiling or twist. It happens all the time in TV and movie courtrooms, but in real courtrooms... not so much. Most people know the basics. Someone may admit something surprising, or testimony can go awry, but the "big dramatic reveal" isn't so common. Yet in the trial of Ross Ulbricht, concerning whether he was or wasn't the "Dread Pirate Roberts" behind the Silk Road hidden market, things are already off to quite a start. We'd already me...

YouTube Pranksters Pretend to Be 'Coke' Pushers at the Beach. Cops Show Up, Fun BeginsLos Angeles, CA — The guys from Nelk Filmz decided that it would be funny to act like coke dealers at the beach. Only the coke they were selling was the same coke you could get out of a vending machine.
The idea was that if someone said “yes” to the question of, “Hey do you wanna buy some coke?” they would pull out one of the cans they had stashed in the back of their SUV.
Apparently this got the attention of the LAPD, who quickly showe... (more)

Critics Hate 'The Interview'I watched it expecting nothing, it opens with almost zero character development and doesn't have much pull, but I thought it ended up being a decent movie, with some very funny parts. It's not jingoistic propaganda, and pokes fun at US interventionism at a few points, but it doesn't have an overly political message either way. (As opposed to a movie that is straight pentagon-run propaganda like Pearl Harbor (See: Operation Hollywood: How The Pentagon Shapes And Censors The Movies). That said I'm a 29 year old male, though I find graphic violence repellant, which the film has a decent amount of, I've been somewhat desensitized to it as it's the new gimmick which seems to be in tons of modern comedy films/sketches (I detest the trend, but I just ignore it when I see it). I could see older people with different tastes hating it. - Chris, InfoLib |
