Lego: The Force Unleashed

I made this as part of an animation challenge on bricksinmotion.com. The goal was to make the coolest lightsaber duel possible. The lightsaber and blaster effects were done in photoshop.

70-minute Star Wars: The Phantom Menace Review

That’s right, a 70-minute review of The Phantom Menace.

I was skeptical about watching such a long review, but it’s actually pretty funny and done quiet well.

Give the first 10 minutes of the review a watch (above) and if you like it; check out the rest after the jump.

Jon on Film

I've been rating the movies that I watch via Twitter so I thought it would be a good idea if I explained my rating system.

1/5 stars - Horrible movie. You probably had to turn it off or felt bad for wasting your time once it ended.

2/5 stars - Meh. Not horrible, but nothing special either.

3/5 stars - Entertaining. Movies that get this rating probably didn't blow your mind, but you enjoyed them.

4/5 stars - Awesome! Movies that earn this rating are the ones that you can't wait to discuss with your friends.

5/5 stars - Classic! Perfect movies that will still be watchable years later.

Film Analysis: Pulp Fiction

I always find it interesting to hear people’s thoughts on popular movies. I especially like it when details of the film that I never noticed are made obvious.

The following two videos focus on the gold watch in Pulp Fiction.

Film Analysis: Pulp Fiction: Part 1

Film Analysis: Pulp Fiction: Part 2

Of course, this person could be over analyzing details of the film, but I think it's safe to assume that this was the story that Quentin Tarantino was trying to tell to his audience.
