• HATE FUN 2003! The Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok

  
  AWESOME ENGINE — Authority: 143
  Not very good Detective Conan-a-like, this time the spin is that it’s occult investigations. And when I say not very good, I just mean mediocre. That’s the thing that really strikes me is that considering the sheer amount of anime produced in the last 10 years, very little is truly dire or utterly inept across the ...

  Showbits — Authority: 106
  Its not a new phenomenon for video games to be adapted to film, though it is rare that its done well. Mortal Kombat is my favorite such effort, and even it was a fun popcorn movie of little substance. Yet such translations continue unabated. The latest attempt to carry a games success to the silver screen is the ...

  FilmCrunch — Authority: 480
  The first image from the 30 Days of Night sequel, Dark Days , is out and fails to make an impression on me. Kiele Sanchez replaces Melissa George as our heroine, Stella Oleson, wielding a particularly large knife. While the movie may be a direct adaptation of its graphic novel origin, this photograph recalls the ...

  By Michael Farah Make no mistake, the Fantastic Mr. Fox is a Wes Anderson film. All the Anderson hallmarks are there: quirky characters and set design, the subtle melancholy in tone and, of course, Bill Murray. But whereas Anderson’s previous flicks sometimes suffer under the weight of too much twee, Fox is a ...
