<description><![CDATA[Liza, minha querida cocainomana, Não sei se você lembra, mas há muito tempo atrás você era uma jovem]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://socasando.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/l_lizaminelli.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1223" title="L_LizaMinelli" src="http://socasando.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/l_lizaminelli.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="166" /></a></p>
<p>Liza, minha querida cocainomana,</p>
<p>Não sei se você lembra, mas há muito tempo atrás você era uma jovem que fedia a sucesso, vencedora de um Oscar de melhor atriz além de dois Tonys.</p>
<p>Dizer que o auge da sua carreira ainda está por vir quando ouvir o seu nome causa uma profunda sensação de compaixão e melancolia é, no mínimo, desconcertante.</p>
<p>O que você está esperando no futuro? Um Nobel de Economia?</p>
<p>Porque bater aquilo que você já foi um dia é muito difícil, ainda mais considerando o que você é hoje.</p>
<p>Sinceramente, eu nunca fui seu fã: sempre tive uma estranha aflição dos seus olhos, que são muito separados um do outro. Se eles fossem um pouquinho mais afastados você não seria um ser humano, e sim uma pomba.</p>
<p>E eu sei o quanto eu estou sendo chato, mas que lhe sirva de incentivo o fato de que eu torço por você, primeiro porque você é fodida da cabeça e teve uma vida completamente esmerdalhada, coisa que ninguém merece. Segundo porque eu amo retornos triunfais, como Burt Reynolds em Boogie Nights, ou David Carradine em Kill Bill, ou Elvis no ano de 1968.</p>
<p>Se tem alguém em quem você deve se inspirar nesse momento é Elvis Presley, só não vá virar uma obesa mórbida e morrer de gorda.</p>
<p>Bom auge de carreira,</p>
<p>Suza.</p>

<p><a href="http://blog.reelloop.com/3301/news/start-engines-prequel-death-race-greenlit/" target="_blank">From ReelLoop.com</a></p>
<p>A prequel to Paul W.S. Anderson’s Death Race has been given the go-ahead by Universal Studios. Penned by Tony Giglio and based on the story from Anderson, the upcoming straight-to-DVD feature will delve into the back-story of the masked and mangled Frankenstein, who was original played by the late David Carradine in the 1975 original film Death Race 2000.</p>
<p>Carradine provided Frank’s voice in Anderson’s Death Race.</p>
<p>Death Race was a marginal hit that made $75 million worldwide.</p>
<p>Production on the loosely titled Death Race 2 will begin after Anderson completes Resident Evil: Afterlife. He will serve in a producing capacity.</p>
<p>No word on a cast or who will be helming the project. We don’t care. As long as Natalie Martinez is back.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Chroniquer ce film de Bergman m&#8217;aurait tout simplement été impossible sans le travail merveill]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1677" title="The Serpent's Egg" src="http://zerodeconduite.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/the-serpents-egg.jpg?w=202" alt="The Serpent's Egg" width="210" height="300" />Chroniquer ce film de Bergman m&#8217;aurait tout simplement été impossible sans le travail merveilleux de quelques éditeurs de dvds consciencieux et passionnés (ici Carlotta) que je me dois de remercier chaleureusement. Car <em>L&#8217;œuf du serpent</em> est un des films les plus méconnus du réalisateur suédois, et &#8211; voyez-y une corrélation si vous le souhaitez &#8211; certainement le plus sous-estimé. Plusieurs raisons à celà: Bergman ne filme pas en Suède (le fisc au cul il est obligé de se retirer quelques temps), Bergman filme en anglais (et en allemand) et enfin, Bergman est produit par un Italien (Dino de Laurentiis, un ami) avec des sous américains.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>L&#8217;œuf du serpent</em> déstabilise le cinéphile dès son générique. Ça ne ressemble pas à du Bergman. Ça ne peut pas être du Bergman. Pourtant son nom est bien au générique. Liv Ullmann aussi. On est rassuré. L&#8217;histoire se déroule sur une semaine, au cours du mois de novembre 1923 alors que l&#8217;inflation et l&#8217;humiliation prennent de plus en plus les Allemands à la gorge. Comme paumé dans le Berlin des années 20, un trapéziste américain, Abel Rosenberg (David Carradine que je ne crois pas avoir déjà vu aussi bon) déambule bourré dans un quartier miteux. Alors qu&#8217;il rentre dans sa chambre d&#8217;hôtel il découvre le corps de son frère, suicidé d&#8217;une balle dans la tête. Désemparé, il décide de retrouver l&#8217;ex-femme de celui-ci (Liv Ullmann), elle aussi à Berlin avec laquelle il a toujours entretenu de bons rapports. Danseuse de cabaret et pute à mi-temps, elle décide de s&#8217;occuper d&#8217;Abel et de l&#8217;héberger quelques temps. L&#8217;inspecteur Bauer (Gert Fröbe dont les connaisseurs de James Bond se rappellent dans le rôle d&#8217;Auric Goldfinger) chargé de l&#8217;enquête de la mort du frère d&#8217;Abel invite celui-ci à se rendre à la morgue. Il lui présente les cadavres de plusieurs personnes qu&#8217;il se trouve connaître de près ou de loin. L&#8217;angoisse monte à mesure qu&#8217;il se sent menacé. Sa paranoïa est amplifiée alors qu&#8217;il pense être soupçonné du simple fait qu&#8217;il soit juif (on souligne à gros traits le contexte pour le moins chaotique de l&#8217;Allemagne de l&#8217;époque).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Passée la surprise des premières minutes, <em>L&#8217;œuf du serpent</em> s&#8217;avère être un film remarquable. Tourné dans les même décors que le <em>Berlin Alexanderplatz</em> de Fassbinder, il est un hommage non dissimulé à Fritz Lang. A son <em>Mabuse</em> d&#8217;une part (Heinz Bennent, terrifiant dans le rôle du professeur Vergerus), et au personnage interprété par Otto Wernicke dans <em>M</em> et le <em>Testament du Docteur Mabuse</em> d&#8217;autre part (en effet, on évoque un commissaire Lohmann). Deux histoires se mélangent dans le film, la grande et la petite. Mais ce n&#8217;est pas nécessairement une dénonciation d&#8217;un régime nazi en gestation à laquelle se prête ici Bergman. La petite histoire, celle de deux êtres broyés par la vie, cette grande machine qui va, l&#8217;intéresse bien plus. <em>L&#8217;œuf du serpent</em> (celui dont la coquille si fine permet déjà de distinguer le parfait petit reptile) obsède et terrifie à la fois. Un film éprouvant qu&#8217;on ne saurait mettre devant toutes les paires d&#8217;yeux.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Phillip Rogers was not at all happy with his wife, Tammy. In fact, he was so agitated with her, he told her, “Why don’t you just go kill yourself?” Tammy, not at all intimidated by Phillip, told him to go fetch the gun for her.</p>
<p>In a moment straight out of The Deer Hunter, Tammy put the gun to her head and pulled the trigger. Fortunately, the gun was not loaded and nothing happened. This would have been a good time for both parties to take a step back and think about what just transpired.</p>
<p>Because they were drunk, however, the situation only went from bad to worse. Phil, being the type of guy to see things to the end, at this point loaded the gun for Tammy and handed it back to her. She proceeded to point the gun at her head again, pull the trigger, and for all practical purposes, put herself in a vegetative state for the rest of her life.</p>
<p>Of course, this is just Phil’s version of the story. While it seems totally believable, I think I would go with a version that has the part in it where Phil loads the gun and shoots his wife. While she may have pulled the trigger once, had he handed the loaded gun to her the second time, I am confident we would be reading about the now dead Phillip Rogers.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4730" title="phillip rogers" src="http://stopannoyingme.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/phillip-rogers.jpg" alt="phillip rogers" width="160" height="180" /></p>
<p>(Phil, giving you his evil &#8220;do it&#8221; look).</p>
<p>In any case, Phil still got charged with “assisting with an attempted suicide”. Something tells me that this carries somewhat less of a charge than, say, premeditated murder. Nice job, Phil. You might be able to swing some sort of suspended sentence or parole out of the deal.</p>
<p>When Phil was arrested, he allegedly told the police officers to “jump off of a bridge”. Four officers drowned after taking these instructions to heart. Phil just has that kind of effect on people. In fact, when he was arraigned, he told the judge to “stick his head up his ass”. After several minutes of trying to comply, an embarrassed Judge Buford T. Justice called for a recess to wash the poop out of his hair.</p>
<p>Kissimmee police: Here are a few other cases that didn’t happen the way you think they did. Ron and Nicole did not just slip and fall several times on top of a sharp knife. Jimmy Hoffa did not lie down to “take a nap” in a concrete pit. The Menendez Brothers were not crocheting an “I love Mom and Dad” shotgun sheath when the gun “accidentally” went off. David Carradine was not spanking his monkey when he just happened to hang himself. (Wait…he did? Ok, don’t count that one).</p>
<p>Anyway, get to work and don’t let this guy off the hook.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Quentin Tarantino is one of the most controversial and most unique and visionary filmmakers of the l]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Quentin Tarantino is one of the most controversial and most unique and visionary filmmakers of the last 20 years.  His films have such range and originality and they establish themselves as “clearly Tarantino.”  “Pulp Fiction,” “Reservoir Dogs” and “Inglorious Basterds” are some of my favorite films (all directed by Tarantino).  All of his movies stand alone as their own films.  All but the “Kill Bill” films, of which there are two.</p>
<p>The “Kill Bill” movies have a basic premise: revenge.  A woman (played by Uma Thurman), whose name is not completely known until the end of the second film, was wronged on her wedding day.  Actually, she was pregnant and while exchanging vows with her husband-to-be, a squad of assassins obliterates the attendees, the groom and many others in the church.  This entire scenario is not part of the film as a scene in and of itself, but rather it is told through flashbacks and dialogue between the characters.  Thurman’s character, referred to as “the Bride” in the first film, awakes after years in a coma to discover that her unborn child is gone and her life that she had known was no more.  She escapes a sadistic chain of events at the hospital she resided at for years and makes a list of the “assassins” that killed her loved ones.  And so, the story of “Kill Bill” really begins.</p>
<p>The two movies are titled “Kill Bill: Volume I” and “Kill Bill: Volume II” and even though they are the same story continued over the course of two films, they are in no way the same movie.  The styles are so completely different between the two that one may mistake them for being two different directors, but that’s the genius of Tarantino.  He’s able to make an homage to the kung fu films of the 1970’s (“Volume I”) and an homage to classic revenge westerns (“Volume II”).  These two styles and different films make the viewer attentive to the details and keeps them focused on the chain of events in the story, which is a tribute to the filmmaking style of Tarantino.</p>
<p>VOLUME I:</p>
<p>This film is the starting point of “the Bride” and her quest for revenge.  For this first installment, she makes a rendezvous at the house of Vernita Green (played by Vivica A. Fox).  The “meeting” soon turns into a kung fu fight that is nothing short of over-the-top stunts, but that plays to the effect and tone of this particular film.  My favorite scene in this “chapter” (the movie breaks up the scenes into clearly distinctive chapters, making it more involving for the viewer), is when Green and “the Bride” are in the middle of a sword/fist/table fight and a school bus pulls up in front of the house.  Green’s daughter walks into the house and the two women immediately try to act as though nothing is happening.  This is an example of Tarantino’s use of humor in intense scenes to break the tension.</p>
<p>Eventually, Green is killed and “the Bride” is off to kill the next person on her list: O-Ren Ishii (played wonderfully by Lucy Liu).  This confrontation takes the remainder of the film and the overly graphic, blood splattering showdown is so over-the-top that it’s not believable but almost laughable.  Again, this is the intentional style of director Tarantino.  The original 1970 kung fu films were not realistic and the violence was so fake that it was laughable.  This entire sequence between the showdown of O-Ren Ishii and “the Bride” features gravity-defying stunts and fast shot cinematography which gives the viewer the feeling they are right there among this chaotic blood bath.  As was the case with Vernita Green, O-Ren Ishii is defeated and “the Bride” continues her rampage of revenge, making her way closer and closer to the man that orchestrated the killings of her loved ones: Bill.  This is the end of “Volume I” and some may find this film to be so violent and so campy that the second film was not even an option.  However, I believe that this homage to kung fu films works.  The story is that of revenge and the characters, “the Bride” included, are so focused on their own personal gain.  The viewer must realize this and with this in mind, the movies become more of an enjoyable experience.</p>
<p>VOLUME II:</p>
<p>The second installment of the “Kill Bill” movies takes a complete turn and becomes an homage to western movies.  The name of “the Bride” is revealed as Beatrix Kiddo or “Black Mamba.” Beatrix continues her quest to take down Bill, the orchestrator of the mass killings on her wedding day.  But first, she has to take down Budd (or “Sidewinder”…played by Michael Madsen) and Elle Driver (played by Daryl Hannah).  Driver is the first to go in a shootout/fight scene similar to that of the Green/Beatrix showdown in the first film.  However, instead of taking place in a suburban home, it takes place in a hotel room and is more “western” looking in the shooting style.  Driver (perhaps the most sadistic of the killers) is taken down and Beatrix moves on to her next victim: Budd.</p>
<p>Budd is perhaps the “hippie” of the group in his laid back style.  He realizes that what he did was wrong, but he doesn’t feel remorse for his actions.  Budd also realizes that Beatrix is going to take him and everyone else down and that she “deserves her revenge.”  This doesn’t mean that he’s going down without a fight.  She shows up at his trailer house and obliterates him, leaving one target left on her list:  Bill (brilliantly acted by the late David Carradine).</p>
<p>Beatrix’s showdown with Bill is epic and the deep connection between the two is revealed.  I’m going to spare the details on this particular fight and the story developments that ensue, simply because I’ve exposed so many key points to the films that there should be some incentive to see these films.  Is Bill killed in the end?  Does Beatrix avenge her loved ones?  Is her daughter still alive?  Watch the movies and see…</p>
<p>The second film is not nearly as violent in the gory, bloody sense, but it still is graphic.  The use of violence by Tarantino is intense and the viewer should be aware that it is shocking at times, but it’s use is part of the cinematic effectiveness of his style.  Tarantino’s “Kill Bill” films are two distinctively different films but are the same story.  They are not his greatest films, but are definitely his most unique.  The acting is flawless.  Thurman is so convincing that we, the audience, actually want her to kill all these people.  Carradine is great with a subtle intensity and the chemistry between him and Thurman is really believable.  The supporting players, Madsen, Liu, Hannah and Fox, are all sadistically convincing.</p>
<p>The style is unique.  The soundtracks are great.  The “Kill Bill” movies are simply Tarantino.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Ya hablé sobre esta cinta en artículos anteriores, estaba realmente ansioso por echarle un vistazo, ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Ya hablé sobre esta cinta en artículos anteriores, estaba realmente ansioso por echarle un vistazo, no se, pintaba de puta madre, Tarantino, Carradine, Madsen,  Harleys, 1%, mujeres explosivas hambrientas de sexo y drogas, violencia…</p>
<p>La dirige Larry Bishop, el tío conocido entre mi grupo de amigos como: “El señor eres más inútil que un culo en el codo”,  hijo del actor Joey Bishop y también actor, dirigió “Encantado de Matarte” una película que a mi personalmente me gusta bastante, al enterarme de este proyecto de Bishop y habiendo visto anteriormente su opera prima, pensé que podía ser una muy buena experiencia cinematográfica… me equivoque.</p>
<p>SINOPSIS: Narra la historia de Pistolero, The Gent y Comanche, quienes comenzarán una caza contra los 666ers, un grupo de motoristas rivales que han asesinado a Cherokee Kisum, la novia de Pistolero.</p>
<p>Bueno, eso sería a grandes rasgos la sinopsis, pero solo a grandes rasgos. No se muy bien como empezar a hablar de la película, quizás, empecemos por una pregunta: ¿Por qué Quentin solo produce mierdas de segunda? Hagamos una retrospectiva, veamos que basuras ha producido el señor Tarantino. Tenemos por un lado las terribles secuelas de “Abierto hasta el amanecer”, que en cierto modo estaba casi obligado a producir.  Luego tenemos “Tú asesina, que nosotras limpiamos la sangre” (nombre más propio del gordo Almodóvar) cortometraje que convirtió en largo y seamos sensatos, no le salió demasiado bien. Y por último  la saga de “Hostel”, que en fin, solo tenéis que buscar mi opinión en el blog. Ha producido más pero yo hablo de las películas de segunda que por alguna extraña razón a él le parecen acojonantes. Hell Ride me parecía un proyecto de lo más ambicioso y daba mi voto de confianza a Tarantino y a su equipo, bueno, en realidad a su equipo no, Michael Steinberg y Shana Stein solo han producido y dirigido mierdas, pero no se, se trataba de una cinta con un ambiente “grindy” de los que me gustan (como ya sabéis soy un enamorado del cine de los 70).</p>
<p>Bueno pues cuando la película empieza, parece que vas a ver una opera “híperviolenta” de moteros genial, pero se convierte en una hora y dieciocho minutos de diálogos completamente absurdos, personajes que van y vienen sin sentido, un Larry Bishop que realmente se pone las botas fornicando con todas las muchachitas pervertidas que salen en la cinta, quizás aprovechando su posición de director y productor, actores de segunda mal aprovechados… en fin, lo que normalmente se llama una puta mierda.</p>
<p>Hablemos de los actores: Larry Bishop, es un tipo que no tiene demasiadas dotes interpretativas, no es malo, pero muy pesado interpretando, de hecho me da la sensación que creó a su personaje, Pistolero, sin demasiadas pretensiones artísticas para que no flojeé su interpretación, que por otra parte acaba siendo nefasta. Este hombre empezó formando pareja cómica con Rob Reiner, actor, escritor, productor y director de películas bastante míticas y que conforman un núcleo contracultural de cierta generación, pelis como: la friki “This is Spinal Tap”, la increíble “La princesa prometida”, el referente humorístico “Cuando Harry encontró a Sally”, la entrañable “Cuenta conmigo” o la inquietante “Misery”… pero Larry pasó completamente desapercibido basando su carrera interpretativa en apariciones estelares en series de los 70 o ya en los noventa, en producciones para la televisión.</p>
<p>Dennis Hopper interpreta a Eddie Zero. No me parece mal que intenten dar una oportunidad a Hopper, porque desde que salió en “Super Mario Bros” interpretando al villano Rey Koopa, no levanta cabeza el hombre. No está mal, pero tampoco esta bien que le dejen interpretar un papel sin explicarle siquiera que hace en la película, porque me da esa sensación, el anciano Hopper se pasea por la película sin pena ni gloria y  dando la impresión que no sabe que hace ahí… Al igual que Carradine, que sinceramente me parece una pena que esa sea una de sus últimas películas, por lo menos no será recordado por interpretar a The Deuce, por que ni siquiera me acuerdo yo, su aparición es como un trozo de pollo enganchado a los dientes, molesto.</p>
<p>No me alargaré mucho más, Vinnie Jones me parece un actor bastante carismático pero limitado a los papeles que hasta ahora está haciendo en cine, no me parece mal y de hecho me gusta, pero hubiera estado de puta madre que en “Hell Ride” por lo menos te den una explicación sensata de quien coño es y porque se encarga de matar a diestro y siniestro a todo el santo mundo. Sigamos con Eric Balfour, un chaval que es de lo mejor de la peli y que espero que haga más trabajos porque realmente tiene potencial, pero precisamente ese es su problema en “Hell Ride”, Bishop no es un buen director de actores y no ha sabido aprovechar a Balfour.  Pasemos a Madsen, a mí Michael Madsen me parece un actor genial, es malo, sin llegar a la altura de Ben Afleck, pero queda la hostia de bien en las pelis que sale y el tipo quiere hacerlo lo mejor posible y se nota que se esfuerza, a destacar en “Hell Ride” su voz (la vi en versión original), más ronca si cabe que en el resto de producciones. Por último hablaremos de Leonor Varela, que interpreta a Nada… sus apariciones en la cinta se basan en follar o intentar follar a Bishop, soltando parrafadas bastante extrañas e incoherentes, y en comportamientos descabellados y que se salen completamente de tono.</p>
<p>La banda sonora se compone de canciones sacadas de otras pelis de motoristas interpretadas por el rey de las bandas sonoras de pelis de motoristas, Davie Allen &#38; the Arrows, siendo aun así bastante regular, destaca la maravillosa “Maggot Brain” de Funkadelic.</p>
<p>Bueno, que voy a acabar que me estoy liando, cuando terminas de ver “Hell Ride” piensas en que coño has visto, si ha merecido la pena perder tiempo en verla y te sorprende bastante porque te das cuenta como te han vendido la moto con trailers cañeros firmados por Tarantino. “Hell Ride” es una visión de las pelis “grindhouse” de motoristas, como hizo Tarantino en “Death Proof” con las pelis “grindhouse” de coches, o Rodriguez con las de zombies,  pero siendo muy, muy poco efectiva, con la narrativa típica de esta clase de películas pero sin transportarte en ningún momento a una sala de cine sucia, ni a ese mundo de violencia “pulp” desmedida, un fracaso por parte de Bishop y de Tarantino.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Después de habernos ahorrado (en Occidente) las terribles muertes por las enfermedades infecciosas q]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://notengoremedio.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/muerte.jpg" alt="muerte" title="muerte" width="250" height="286" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-445" />Después de habernos ahorrado (en Occidente) las terribles muertes por las enfermedades infecciosas que nos asolaban en la Edad Media, de que la hambruna sea algo minoritario, y de haber evitado muchísimas enfermedades por las medidas de Salud Pública (básicamente, potabilizar el agua, canalizar las aguas fecales y lavarnos las manos), <strong>en esta &#8220;vida moderna&#8221; nos hemos inventado otras formas de morirnos. </strong>No me refiero a ninguna enfermedad médica, y hoy tampoco quiero hablar de los accidentes de tráfico, los suicidios o las sobredosis. </p>
<p>Antes de nada, <strong>me gustaría que esto no sonase frívolo: NO ES MI INTENCIÓN</strong>.  Pero en los últimos tiempos me llama la atención comprobar cómo saltan a la palestra noticias de personas que fallecen de vacaciones o, al menos, en una escapadita. Por ejemplo, este verano fallecía <a href="http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/478887/0/turista/espanola/zambia/">una chica en un safari en Zambia</a>, tras ser atacada por un elefante. Hace varias semanas, se daba por muerto (tras estar varios días desaparecido y no poder ser rescatado) <a href="http://jenesaispop.com/2009/09/21/muere-el-creador-de-shin-chan/">al creador de Shin-Chan</a>. Y hoy me enteraba de la muerte, -combinando las dos modalidades anteriores, de <a href="http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/553170/0/cantante/muerta/coyotes/">Taylor Mitchell, una cantautora folkie canadiense</a>, mientras hacía senderismo, al ser atacada por dos coyotes.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/5LqW3DzkDeY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/5LqW3DzkDeY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Otros artistas también han muerto en circunstancias poco convencionales; <strong>Jeff Buckley</strong>, ahogado en el río Wolf (Memphis), <strong>Aaliyah</strong>, en un accidente de avión, <strong>Steve Took</strong> (T-Rex) atragantado con el hueso de una cereza&#8230; y eso sin entrar en el mundo de las sobredosis, ya sean de heroína (<strong>Janis Joplin, uno de los Ramones</strong>&#8230;) o ahogados en su propio vómito tras haberse bebido hasta el agua de los jarrones (<strong>Keith Moon</strong> -batería de los Who-, <strong>John Bonham</strong> -batería de Led Zeppelin-, <strong>Bon Scott</strong> -cantante de AC/DC&#8230;). </p>
<p>Está claro que de algo hay que morir. Pero creo que <strong>morir de viejecito todavía tiene su encanto&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>PD1: Como véis, no hace falta recurrir de manera obvia a otros miembros del <strong>&#8220;Grupo de los 27&#8243; </strong> -no me refiero a la Unión Europea- cuyas muertes no están tan claras (<strong>Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, o Brian Jones</strong>). Tampoco he dicho que <strong>pensaba que tanto Pete Doherty como Amy Winehouse podían entrar en ese grupo</strong>. Y tampoco he (había) mencionado otra muete polémica todavía reciente, la de <strong>Jacko</strong>. Son muchos, pero <strong>podían haberse muerto de viejos, como harán Mick Jagger, o Sting, o Raphael&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>PD2: La <a href="http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2009/06/05/television/1244191633.html">muerte de David Carradine</a> tampoco la tengo muy clara.<br />
<img src="http://notengoremedio.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/testmuerte1.jpg" alt="testMuerte" title="testMuerte" width="298" height="248" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-450" /><br />
PD3: Al inventor de <a href="http://www.test-de-la-muerte.com/?regul=no&#38;tduid=cb1e45925eab84569fa7fb067ab8a6d5">este incordio</a>, me gustaría saber qué le ha salido en su propio test. Ojalá fuese una <em>muerte tonta, de esas que nadie se explica</em>&#8230; (como dicen <a href="http://open.spotify.com/track/6oODshMHo6IurY1q1uiK8x">Los Punsetes</a>)</p>

<p>Although<em> Kung Fu </em>may seem an unlikely Weird Western subject it does qualify because of certain episodes with supernatural themes.  Season Three in particular ventured into this area as the storylines became more mystical and, to some, more confusing.  This YouTube segment from the episode &#8220;One Step To Darkness&#8221; (3:15) provides a perfect example of a storyline featuring a demon.  All the Weird Western episodes are featured in my book.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-5026" title="kill_bill_vol_two_ver5" src="http://lella.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/kill_bill_vol_two_ver5.jpg?w=202" alt="kill_bill_vol_two_ver5" width="202" height="300" />ATENÇÃO! Contém Spoilers.</p>
<p>&#8220;Kill mothafucka Bill&#8221;, um dos filmes de mais sucesso de Tarantino, e também, na minha humilde opinião, um dos menos entendidos.</p>
<p>Tirei os últimos dias para tentar colocar meus &#8220;filmes que quero ver pela primeira vez ou de novo&#8221; em dia. Comecei por Lady Vingança, que vai ganhar uma resenha própria, e passei por &#8220;Rock&#8217;n'Rolla&#8221; (do Guy Richie), que provavelmente também ganhará. Passei aos blockbusters e fui direto ao <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266697/">Kill Bill</a>. No momento em que comecei a assistir, lembrei que só havia visto no computador, antes de sair no cinema, e que nunca mais tinha colocado os olhos no filme. Foi bom assistir novamente.</p>
<p>O tema principal do filme talvez seja realmente a vingança que Kiddo procura e o que faz até consegui-la. Mas permitam-me dizer que esse não é o tema do filme. O tema do filme é simples e se resume em uma palavra: consequência.</p>
<p>Bill é o líder de um esquadrão de matadores de aluguel e ganha a vida matando as pessoas ao redor do mundo e ganhando rios de dinheiro com isso, como ele mesmo define. Porém, o que ele ainda não enfrentou na vida (ou não tinha enfrentado, até cruzar com a fúria de Kiddo) era a consequência. A consequência por seus atos, bons ou maus, mas a simples e cruel consequência.</p>
<p>Foi Bill que recrutou Kiddo e contou a ela sobre Pai Mei, e também foi Bill quem colocou os dois em contato para o treinamento. Foi mencionando o nome de Bill que Kiddo conseguiu que Hattori Hanzo quebrasse seu juramento e lhe forjasse uma espada. Foi Bill que convocou todo o seu grupo de extermínio para matar Kiddo e todo o seu quase-futuro de felicidade e também foi Bill que atirou na cabeça de Kiddo, provocando assim o seu coma e a sua fúria.</p>
<p>Foi Bill quem se apaixonou por Kiddo, e lhe fez um filho, e foi por causa desse filho que Kiddo encontrou a felicidade, depois de tantas mortes. E essa foi a consequência final de Bill: dar como presente, depois do gosto doce da vingança, a felicidade ou infelicidade de  ter para sempre um pedaço de si junto a sua assassina e amante.</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p>Em tempo:  Mil perdões por ter ficado tanto tempo sem postar aqui. Tentarei ser mais constante.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>When I started pulling my ideas together for this list last week, I sent a message to my Triforce of geek culture at HowStuffWorks.com &#8212; TechStuff&#8217;s <a href="http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/author/hswjstrickland/">Jonathan Strickland</a>, ScienceStuff&#8217;s <a href="http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/author/hswrlamb/">Robert Lamb</a> and editor Chanel Lee &#8212; asking if they had ideas. I had a pretty clear idea of where I wanted to go, but I wanted to know if they&#8217;d seen something I missed. Among their responses was this note from Jonathan about a movie I&#8217;d never heard of, called &#8220;Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat&#8221;:</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s a <a href="http://science.howstuffworks.com/vampire.htm">vampire</a> western that takes place in a town called Purgatory. Half the vampires want to live in harmony with humans and are developing a <a href="http://health.howstuffworks.com/artificial-blood.htm">synthetic blood substitute</a>. The other half want to live as predators, believing themselves to be superior to humans. Bruce Campbell is in it as a descendant of Van Helsing. David Carradine is Dracula. M. Emmet Walsh is in it too. It&#8217;s awesome. AWESOME.</p></blockquote>
<p>That&#8217;s when my original list went out the window, and I went on a quest to get my hands on this movie.</p>
<div id="attachment_21501" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 370px"><img class="size-full wp-image-21501" title="abstinent-vampires-3" src="http://howstuffworks.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/abstinent-vampires-3.jpg" alt="abstinent-vampires-3" width="360" height="247" /><p class="wp-caption-text">David Carradine in Lionsgate Home Entertainment&#39;s &#34;Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat.&#34; The sunglasses and hat aren&#39;t just for show. (Photo courtesy Lionsgate)</p></div>
<p>Purgatory&#8217;s abstinent vamps have a leg up on Bill Compton for one reason: There&#8217;s strength in numbers. In &#8220;True Blood,&#8221; Bill is an outlier &#8212; the local bar and grill stocks Tru Blood, but Bill is really the only vampire who comes in and drinks it. In Purgatory, though, a whole community has gone mainstream. The corner store stocks real <a href="http://recipes.howstuffworks.com/food.htm">food</a> &#8212; but no <a href="http://home.howstuffworks.com/garlic.htm">garlic</a> &#8212; and the cooks at the local diner serve up plates of burgers and fries in case any unsuspecting non-vampire comes along. When people show up, the vampires put on hats, coat themselves with <a href="http://health.howstuffworks.com/skin-care/beauty/sun-care/sunscreen.htm">sunscreen</a> and pretend to be ordinary folks. Like Bill, they&#8217;ll turn people when necessary &#8212; like, for example, if you&#8217;re building their synthetic <a href="http://health.howstuffworks.com/blood.htm">blood</a> plant and suddenly catch on to the fact that the goop&#8217;s not going to the local hospital. And their guilt quotient is relatively low &#8212; although most of the town&#8217;s citizens gave up blood out of guilt, they&#8217;re not really dwelling on it now.</p>
<p>But the trouble with Purgatory&#8217;s un-bloody vampires is that they&#8217;re so focused on keeping up appearances that they wind up being pretty average. Carradine and Campbell &#8212; and the extraordinarily cheesy &#8217;80s production values &#8212; steal the show.</p>

<p><strong>Director:</strong> Paul Bartel.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Año:</strong>1975</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Duración:</strong> 84 minutos</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Spoilers: </strong>lo mismo sí.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Hoy no tengo resaca, tengo cacotas.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Me hallo en el baño y los melodiosos cánticos procedentes del ogete de Eolo fluyen in my mind, los suaves y espesos aromas acarician mis arcos nasales… mierda… huele rico.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ojos en blanco e inspiraciones profundas, estoy en mi medio y los recuerdos me atenazan. Rápidos flashes de monstruos sobre ruedas, toreros y mandíbulas desencajadas me provocan convulsiones, que favorecen el desprendimiento fecal requerido para una correcta higiene bucal. Beso negro…</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Nunca volverá a ser lo mismo, adoro la mierda, la caspa reguñera (la de rascarse), las drogas y lo socialmente correcto que ahora es socialmente incorrecto.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Desde mi dorado trono (me he meado fuera, qué pasa…) evoco aquellos momentos de complicidad, las risas espontáneas, las miradas picantonas, los sobresaltos en los momentos más inesperados&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">&#8230;DEATH RACE 2000…. Te amo.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Repasemos los ingredientes: futurismo retrospectivo, violencia legalizada, coches tuneados de la hostia, tíos dominantes con tías tetonas, tías dominantes con tíos sumisos, Sylvester Stallone y David Carradine en la misma película, Sylvester Stallone y David Carradine en la misma película&#8230; OMFG!!! ¡¡¡SYLVESTER STALLONE Y DAVID CARRADINE EN LA MISMA PUTA Y JODIDA PELÍCULA!!!</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Parece difícil de creer, pero estos dos poetas de la inexpresividad congenian a la perfección en un filme de argumento descabellado, llena de acción y violencia gratuita.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<div id="attachment_1559" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1559" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/dr2-frankentits.jpg" alt="Como me gustan las teticas gratuitas." width="400" height="267" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Como me gustan las teticas gratuitas.</p></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Veamos de qué va.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>*/SPOILER/*</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">En el <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">año ni puta idea</span> futuro los habitantes los iuesei están imbecilizados, víctimas de un gobierno totalitarista, no se dan cuenta de que les están endrogando por lo bajini, que son alimentados con el opio de la violencia y del espectáculo, que a sus espaldas transcurre una dictadura mientras ante sus ojos se celebra la carrera transcontinental más guay del mundo… LA CARRERA DE LA MUERTE.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Aunque no todos están ciegos… existe un pequeño grupo de insurgentes que pretende sabotear tan magna carrera con traicioneros ardides y técnicas barriobajeras.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Pero el argumento no se centra en este grupo de makis futuristas con ropas de los años sesenta, quizá lo mejor es explicar de qué va la carrera de la muerte.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<div id="attachment_1550" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1550" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/deathrace1.jpg" alt="Versión tuneada de los Autos Locos." width="500" height="344" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Versión tuneada de los Autos Locos.</p></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Cada año un reducido número de pilotos (5 pectlh)  toman parte, junto a sus copilotos, en una competición automovilística que pretende recorrer los EEUU de costa a costa.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Una de las peculiaridades de la carrera de la muerte es que durante la carrera hay que provocar la muerte para ganar puntos. Quien muera es lo de menos, el caso es matar por matar y yo mataría por matar por matar.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Aún así no todo es un baño de sangre y vísceras a lo loco como podría parecer en un principio. Están regidos por un sistema de puntuaciones en función de la persona a la que atropellen.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Féminas: 10 puntos</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Varones: 40 puntos</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Engendros (eso que sale de las féminas fertilizadas): 70 puntos</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Viejales: 100 puntos</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Quien más puntos consiga y llegue primero a la meta, será el vencedor.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">¿El premio? Fama, respeto… y poder darle la mano al presidente del país.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El elenco de corredores es reducido pero representa un conjunto de topicazos dignos de una tienda de recuerdos de Chipiona:</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Calamity Jane: </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Castiza y agresiva corredora de coches y de hombres, con su coche-toro protagonizará la mejor corrida que he visto en película alguna.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1552" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/death-race-2000-mary-woronov12.jpg" alt="" width="429" height="323" /></p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Matilda the Hun: </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ser nazi y participar en carreras de coches son sus dos aficiones favoritas. Gasta mala hostia.</p>
<div id="attachment_1553" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1553" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/dr2-tlda.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="230" /><p class="wp-caption-text">No todo lo nazi da asco.</p></div>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Nero el héroe de Lonigan</strong> (Nero the Hero queda mejor)<strong>:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Se mola mucho a sí mismo, lleva un coche cobrizo y come uvas de moscatel  porque se sigue molando cual Adonis. Un lamentable accidente en la carrera y un cambio de rumbo en su vida, propiciará que años más tarde se convierta en el profe de karate que atormentará con acierto al gilipollas de Daniel-san en <em>‘Karate Kid’</em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Joe Viterbo:</strong> Apodado ‘Machine Gun’ porque le mola ametrallar a la peña que le cae mal y al público en general. Su coche, un bólido mafioso con ametralladoras en el morro y un machete en el centro, por si se le escapa alguno, es de los más pinigrosos de la carrera, no porque corra más rápido que las balas que lanza, sino porque lo maneja ¡¡Stallone!!</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Gasta una mala hostia de cuidao, no duda en zurrarse con lo que sea, soltar palabrostias o matar a cuello.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">A resaltar la escena en la que zumba a su compañera en pelotas en toda la face.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<div id="attachment_1549" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1549" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/deathrace6.jpg" alt="El casco sirve para proteger a los demás de su prominente cabeza." width="400" height="273" /><p class="wp-caption-text">El casco sirve para proteger a los demás de su prominente cabeza.</p></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Frankenstein:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">La leyenda, el mito, el tropocientas veces ganador de la carrera transcontinental, el tipo de hombre al que ves por la calle y piensas “ese tío es la rehostia divina y además me cae bien hasta el punto de parecerme homosexualmente atractivo”.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">David Carradine interpreta a este soberbio personaje con su afamada inexpresividad… y cuando se quita la máscara también.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Hecho polvo por cienes de accidentes, se rumorea que todas las partes de su cuerpo han sido sustituidas por implantes biónicos que no hacen ruido al andar.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Es el personaje más misterioso y enigmático de la peli y eso provoca que se las lleve a todas de calle, pero a él no le interesan las mujeres… le molan más otras cosas que hace con su mano siempre enguantada…</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<div id="attachment_1544" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1544" src="http://elblogbuster.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/frankenstein.jpg" alt="El hombre con traje de neopreno y quitamultas." width="500" height="382" /><p class="wp-caption-text">El hombre con traje de neopreno para sesiones BDSM y quitamultas.</p></div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Estos cinco corredores competirán por ser el asesino más rápido y despiadado, pero se toparán con Thomasina Paine, líder del grupo insurgente que tratará de sabotear la carrera con más o menos éxito…</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>/*END SPOILER*/</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">No quiero contar nada más sobre el desarrollo del argumento porque considero que merece la pena ver la peli y disfrutar de sus virtudes.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Fíjate si mola que hasta tiene giros argumentales y todo.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Rezuma humor negro por los cuatro costados, situaciones imposibles e hilarantes que mantienen tus babas pegadas a la pantalla sin importarte que la radiación de tu vieja televisión de tubo te deje estéril, ciego y repleto de acné.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>El mileurista de La Moraleja.</strong></p>

<a href="http://www.michaeljackson.com">Michel Jackson</a>, come le altre Star scomparse nel 2009 (<a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farrah_Fawcett">Farrah Fawcett</a>, <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Carradine">David Carradine</a> e <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Swayze">Patrick Swayze</a>) sono tutte in purgatorio e sono molto arrabbiate perché non sono state &#8220;invitate&#8221; direttamente in paradiso. La loro colpa è quella di essere stati delle celebrità in vita.</p>
<p>Ad immaginarli così sono stati gli autori di <a href="http://www.southparkstudios.com/">South Park</a> nel primo episodio della nuova stagione intitolato <em>I see dead celebrities</em> andato in onda lo scorso 7 ottobre negli Stati Uniti. Ovviamente <strong>Stan</strong>, <strong>Kyle</strong>, <strong>Kenny</strong> e <strong>Cartman</strong> aiuteranno <strong>Jacko</strong> e gli altri a giungere in Paradiso.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>It&#8217;s the <a href="http://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/category/bad-movies/"><strong>Bad Movie of the Week</strong></a>! In the world of bad movies, <a href="http://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/tag/david-carradine/">David Carradine</a> is a high priest (though he has been known to star in good movies as well). But this isn&#8217;t just any David Carradine movie. Its production began in 1970, when <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Lee">Bruce Lee</a> co-wrote a script for a new movie called <em>The Silent Flute</em> through which he intended introduce Eastern philosophy and martial arts to Western audiences. Due to a number of conflicts, the project did not go forward. After Lee&#8217;s death in 1973, the project was revived with David Carradine in Lee&#8217;s roles, as well as a new script with more &#8220;comedic scenes&#8221; and a new, meaningless title:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078975/"><strong>Circle of Iron</strong></a> <strong>(1978)</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://bplusmovies.today.com/2008/10/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2326" title="circle-of-iron" src="http://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/circle-of-iron.jpg" alt="circle-of-iron" width="352" height="468" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Plot:</strong> Young, brash <strong>Cord</strong> is a martial artist competing to be chosen for the dangerous task of seeking the mysterious wizard <strong>Zetan</strong> and the Book of Enlightenment. Losing the competition, he decides to go anyway, and sets out alone. Along the way, he attempts to befriend a blind wanderer who turns out to be a talented, but frustratingly enigmatic, martial artist. At times, the wanderer leaves Cord alone, and Cord is forced to face a series of trials armed only with his strength and the wisdom he has acquired. Finally, he reaches Zetan, but what he finds is not what he expected.</p>

<p><img title="More..." src="https://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" alt="" /><strong>Best quote:</strong> A movie full of wisdom&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Cord:</strong> How long have you been blind?</p>
<p><strong>Blind Man:</strong> How long have <em>you </em>been blind?</p>
<p><strong>Cord:</strong> I&#8217;m not blind.</p>
<p><strong>Blind Man: </strong>Am I?</p>
<p><strong>Cord: </strong>Do you answer every question with a question?</p>
<p><strong>Blind Man:</strong> Do you question every answer?</p>
<p><strong>Cord: </strong>Aww, talking to you is like talking to a wall.</p>

<p><strong>Most implausible moment:</strong> Circle of Iron is full of oddities and non sequiters: a surreal <a href="http://fliiby.com/file/460895/md2mdc8qf9.html">scene</a> with <strong>Eli Wallach</strong> as a man trying to dissolve his lower extremities in a barrel of oil; a barrage of dubious wisdom delivered with Zen-like pomposity by David Carradine; and a mid-career <strong>Christopher Lee</strong> as the Chief Warlock of Rivendell/Cloud City.</p>
<p><strong>Final score: 2</strong> (6 is worst). Some actors are completely full of themselves. We know this; we saw it vividly when Carradine and <strong>Chuck Norris</strong> faced off in the epic <a href="http://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/2008/12/21/bad-movie-of-the-week-lone-wolf-mcquade/">Lone Wolf McQuade</a>. Great as Bruce Lee was, it&#8217;s hard to deny he was a little full of himself too. So it&#8217;s no surprise that a movie with the history of <strong>Circle of Iron</strong> &#8212; conceived by one such actor, finished by another &#8212; ends up being odd, scattered, and pretty darn full of itself. Although its ambitions to greatness fall ridiculously flat, however, <strong>Circle of Iron</strong> earns a key place in the bad movie pantheon. The chance to watch David Carradine lay down some Bruce Lee-style wisdom is enough in itself to earn this movie a <strong>2</strong> &#8212; silly, but definitely worth a look.</p>
