Movie Trailers for October

If September was famine, October is feast. Let's eat!

Digger (October 26th)

You son of a bitch, I'm in.

 

"Pompeii" by Bastille

My first pitch is that this is a meditation on gentrification by a white guy afraid of every brush with minority culture in cities.

My second take is that no one knows if "Bastille" is the band or if it's the song title. Is "Pompeii" the song and "Bastille" the band? Did I fuck with the title just to mess with you? Eventually, it's all mononyms  you're pulling out of a bag.

Movie Trailers for September

This month's movies are defined by how completely off-the-shelf they feel. 

Forgotten Island (September 25th)

Well, y'know, thank the gods for K-Pop Demon Hunters, otherwise we'd never get atypical animated movies set in countries that aren't the US. Is it trying to be KPDH? Probably. Is it still doing it's own thing? Yes. It is a good sign? Yes. I think when you have something--LITTLE MONSTERS! That's the movie I'm thinking of! Little Monsters! Yes, it's so much like that! That was bugging the hell out of me!
