HOLLYWOOD ROCKS!!!!

Hello Spilldos



I was going through my bookshelves today when I came across an old issue of Classic Rock Magazine;





In the issue was their picks for the 50 greatest rock movies of all time. They were:



50. This Is Spinal Tap





49. Imagine: John Lennon





48. It's A Complex… Continue

Tim Burton's Batman DIDN'T kill The Joker

Tonight I decided to sit down (well, lay down as I'm not feeling well) and watch Tim Burton's Batman from 1989. While the film may have its flaws, I still found it to be enjoyable. But one complaint that seems to come up every time some talks about this movie is that Batman KILLS The Joker, something that goes againist everything Batman stands for.



But he doesn't.







It may take a while, but wait until about 7:15.



As you can… Continue

I have a slight correction to make...........

Hello fellow Spill users



I usually hate to admit that I'm wrong, but in this case I have to.



A few months ago I wrote a review for Magical Mystery Tour, a movie about The Beatles doing random acts of craziness for an hour. If you don't want to read it, I'll give you the short version:



I Hated It



But now........I..........like it. I don't love it, I just like… Continue

Music Movies #24: The Beatles - Part Seven: Across The Universe

When music artists need a boost in their carrers, they usually resort to covering another artist's songs (e.g. Eric Clapton (I Shot The Sheriff) and Brian Ferry (A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall). When artists cover The Beatles, it never works. Ever.

But what about actors covering The Beatles?







The movie, set in the 1960's, tells the… Continue

Kwai Chang Caine: A Euolgy



Alas, poor Kwai Chang Caine! I knew him, Spill users:



A fellow of infinite wisdom, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on many sage words a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is!

My gorge rims at it, whatever the hell that means. Here hung those lips that I have heard through your flute I know not how oft. Where be your words now? Your skill? Your songs? Your flashes of action, that were wont to set… Continue

Music Movies #23: The Beatles - Part Six: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Wow. After seeing this, I realise I was a little too harsh on Magical Mystery Tour. That was a masterpiece compared to this!









This 'film' tries to tell the story of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Peter Frampton and The Bee Gees), a band that comes to grips with the music industry and battle evil forces bent on stealing… Continue

Music Movies #22: The Beatles - Part Five: Let It Be

By 1970, The Beatles were no more. After 13 albums, 27 Number One singles in the US and UK alone and over a decade of making music, The Beatles split up in a blaze of controversy and lawsuits. All this happened during the filming of their last movie together, Let It Be.







The film is a documentary about The Beatles recording the infamous 'Get Back' sessions, which would later be scrapped in favour of recording… Continue

Music Movies #20: The Beatles - Part Three: Magical Mystery Tour.

I've got nothing. I have absolutely nothing. I mean, what the hell am I supposed to say? It's the Magical Mystery Tour. I might as well get started.







When I first put the DVD into my PS3, I was greated by this disclaimer:



Please forgive any discrepancies in the quality of the film you are about to see.

'Magical Mystery Tour' was shot in 1967 by The Beatles and friends on 16mm film.

Music Movies #19: The Beatles - Part Two: Help!

After 'A Hard Day's Night', The Beatles were more successful than ever. Records continued to fly off the shelves and kept reaching number one in the charts across the globe. So most of the same team from 'A Hard Day's Night' came back to make another movie a few months later. What we got was...............this.







I am going to try and explain this movie the best I can. An Eastern cult is about to perform a… Continue

Music Movies #18: The Beatles - Part One: A Hard Day's Night

The Beatles.





There is nothing else I can say. The Beatles. If you don't know who they are, either you are 3 years old or you've been living under a rock for over 50 years. John, Paul, George and Ringo have played an important role in many people's lives, giving us a body of work that can never be equaled. During the decade they were together, The Beatles made 5 films together. The first one has often been called one of the greatest… Continue

Music Movies #17: Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem

What do you get when you cross a French house band and a famed creator of many anime and manga series? You get this.











Interstella 5555 tells the story of an alien band from a parallel galaxy with ONE OF THE MOST AWESOMEST NAMES EVER!!! 'What is this awesome name of biblical proportions?'… Continue

Music Movies #16: Don't Look Back ("Give The Anarchist A Cigarette")

He is the poet laureate of rock 'n' roll. The voice of the promise of the 60's counterculture. The guy who forced folk into bed with rock. Who donned makeup in the 70's and disappeared into a haze of substance abuse. Who emerged to find Jesus. Who was written off as a has-been by the end of the 80's, and who suddenly shifted gears releasing some of the strongest music of his career beginning in the late 90's. He is Columbia recording artist Bob Dylan.

Dylan has starred in many motion… Continue

Music Movies #15: The Who - Part 3: The Kids Are Alright (The Ultimate Rock Band in the Ultimate Rock Film!)

The Who...smashed guitars, demolished hotel rooms, cars in swimming pools and some of the band's most explosive performances. All this and more in The Kids Are Alright







I would have had this review up with the other Who movies I reviewed earlier but I only got a copy of this movie recently so here we go.



The Kids Are Alright is a rockumentary about The Who from their start as The High… Continue

Music Movies #14: Talking Heads - Part 3: True Stories (It's A Completely Cool, Multi-Purpose Movie)

Wow. That's all I have to say. Wow







Now, by the look of the trailer, you would think that this movie would be like a documentary with David Byrne talking about a regional town in Texas and its citizens.



YOU COULDN'T BE MORE FUCKING WRONG!!!!!!



True Stories features Byrne as an unnamed, cowboy-hat-wearing stranger who visits the fictional Texas town of Virgil, where he… Continue

Music Movies #13: Talking Heads - Part 2: Storytelling Giant (WTF!!!!)

Welcome to Part 2 of my trilogy of Talking Head movie reviews. This review is about something you may never have heard of before. Something I wasn't aware of until a week ago. But I found a copy on eBay and bought it so I can review it for whoever wants to read this. This is Storytelling Giant.





Now, the only way I could possibly describe to you what this is about, is to copy the description on the back of the… Continue

Music Movies #12: Talking Heads - Part One: Stop Making Sense (Same As It Ever Was)

Talking Heads was a new wave band formed in 1974 by lead singer David Byrne and was disbanded in 1991.



(If you don't know who he is, he sung the Windows Media Player sample song 'Like Humans Do' and he was in The Simpsons episode 'Dude, Where's My Ranch?)





In the time they were together, Talking Heads had many sucessful singles such as Psycho Killer, Burning Down The House, Road To Nowhere and Once In A Lifetime. But they… Continue

Music Movies #9: The Sex Pistols (Part One) - The Great Rock And Roll Swindle (God Save The Queen, And God Save Me From This Bullshit)

Bollocks. That's what this movie is, and what it always will be. No plot. No talent. No future.







This pile of shit is a fictionalised account of the creation of The Sex Pistols, told from the view point of their manager, Malcolm McLaren. It was originally supposed to be a satire of the music industry at the time and how could a group like The Sex Pistols get a record deal. That at least would have been… Continue

Music Movies #11: 24 Hour Party People (I'd Dance To Joy Divison)

Manchester. The town where railways and omputers were invented. It was also the birthplace of Joy Division, New Order, The Happy Mondays and 'The Rave'. Hence the name, 24 Hour Party People







The movie is the story of Tony Wilson, the head of Factory Records and the creation of the 'Madchester' scene, which brought ecstacy into the mainstream. With a great soundtrack featuring The Clash, The Sex… Continue

Music Movies #10: The Sex Pistols (Part Two): The Filth And The Fury (You Want The Truth?! Here It Is!)

Ah, now this is more like it. Julian Temple, the director of the first Sex Pistols movie decided to do the band the justice it deserves and makes a documentary about the truth. The whole truth. And nothing but the truth,







Mixing old and new footage of the band, Temple's documentary charts the rise, decline and fall of the Sex Pistols from their humble beginnings in Shepherd's Bush to their disintegration at the… Continue

Music Movies #8: Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars (He Took It All Too Far, But Boy Could He Play Guitar!)

By today's standards, people would watch Ziggy Stardust and say "It's one of those queer-o-sexuals!", but in 1973 everyone in the world, especially England, loved him.







In 1973 David Bowie released 'The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars', a concept album about a Martian who comes to Earth to liberate humanity. Ziggy Stardust is the definitive rock star, sexually… Continue
