Sunday, 15 March 2015. What many indies are doing wrong. The indie explosion has finally happened. New indie companies and teams appear every day. At the same time a lot of pessimism has entered the scene: so few indies are actually making money! This is mostly because the market simply isn't big enough to support us all. But I believe another cause is that a lot of indies are all making the same mistakes. Here is what I think many indies are doing wrong. The true skill of the game designer isn't in comi...

Alright, is anyone getting a bit of Nintendo fever again? Or did all sympathy for them disappear with their "We don't play with Garage Developers" comments? I'm pretty excited. Don't know if I'd buy it. I got excited for the Wii, but never bought it. Didn't buy 360 or PS3, either, so I. Jump on an HD capable console from Nintendo. Needs a cool title. I want a...

Filmadeus: F for Fake (Orson Welles, 1974)
http://www.filmadeus.com/2015/10/f-for-fake-orson-welles-1974.html
F for Fake (Orson Welles, 1974). Do not trust this man. Let's work our way back, shall we? For Orson Welles, already portly and seemingly glued to the villainous outfit he wore in The Third Man. Teaming up with French director François Reichenbach in this, his last true production, you start by telling that all films are lies. You'd make it a documentary about forging, fraud and frippery.

Spectre (Sam Mendes, 2015). Here we are again. There’s something to be said for Bond as an auteur series. Back for seconds is director Sam Mendes, who did a superb job infusing Skyfall. 160;with an unusually personal story for Bond and an even more unusual, quaintly apocalyptic final act. And it worked. Having him return for Spectre. Want updates on new posts? Like' the Facebook page below! Spectre (Sam Mendes, 2015).

Filmadeus: January 2016

The Hateful Eight (Quentin Tarantino, 2016). Not a warning, not a question. a bullet. How do you make a minute-long shot of a snow-burdened carving of Jesus on the crucifix the very height of suspense? Simple. Shoot it beautifully in Ultra Panavision 70 (with a whopping 2.76:1 aspect ratio) and have maestro Ennio Morricone score the damn thing. As the custom-built camera draws back and reveals the approach of a distant stagecoach in this, The Hateful Eight. Want updates on new posts?

Filmadeus: Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (Adam McKay, 2013)
http://www.filmadeus.com/2015/08/anchorman-2-legend-continues-adam-mckay.html
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (Adam McKay, 2013). By the hymen of Olivia Newton-John! How'd I miss out on this a second time? Years ago, when I saw Anchorman: The Legend of Run Burgundy. On DVD, my first thought was quite honestly outrage: why had no one told me this was one of the funniest movies ever made when it came out? Appeared, I skipped it. I thought: surely this can't be as good as the first one. I thought: the characters are probably played out. Yes, there's a sense of repetition here and t...

With an unusually personal story for Bond and an even more unusual, quaintly apocalyptic final act. And it worked. Having him return for Spectre. But then the intro titles manage to produce chills. Tentacles glide over naked bodies (inducing memories of David Fincher’s The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. It’s pretty mu...

Filmadeus: Captain America: The Winter Soldier (Anthony and Joe Russo, 2014)
http://www.filmadeus.com/2014/04/captain-america-winter-soldier-anthony.html
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (Anthony and Joe Russo, 2014). Offering some of the finest destruction of hardware since the Death Star. This, in itself, is impressive. What elevates it to stupefying levels is that they haven't dropped the ball a single time. The worst films in the list (a toss-up between Iron Man 2. And The Incredible Hulk. Have been thoroughly entertaining and quite simply fun. The best ones? They've been no less than superlative action films. The original Iron Man, The Avengers.

Captain America: Civil War (Anthony and Joe Russo 2016). I want to punch you in your perfect teeth. Cap does it again. After being (either mildly or strongly) disappointed with every MCU offering since The Winter Soldier. The Russos show they have what it takes. They once again deliver an intriguing, heartfelt superhero thriller, without being swamped by the array of characters on display. Age of Ultron. Was in that manner buried under its own weight, Guardians of the Galaxy. Want updates on new posts?

Filmadeus: Warcraft (Duncan Jones, 2016)
http://www.filmadeus.com/2016/06/warcraft-duncan-jones-2016.html
Warcraft (Duncan Jones, 2016). Spacing concurrent to movie title, which is weird since Warcraft has always had closely tucked together letters): what a strange film! I wonder why. For years I was unsure how to even approach a Warcraft film. How to keep it from being too pulpy? Would it focus on random characters adventuring in this huge, huge world? Or what was it again?
