'Shedding': Film Review
"As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat" – attributed to Ellen Perry Berkeley When describing Shedding's premise, one might immediately think of a reverse look at Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. Kafka's classic work is a depressing tale about a man who loses his identity and self-worth. Shedding is about a cat who becomes human. Instead of becoming a burden like Gregor Samsa's grotesque insect form, Panda the Cat as a human is a blessing to the few other humans he encounters during his adventure.

In 1995, Kathryn Bigelow made an underseen and underrated sci-film that takes place over New Year's Eve of 1999. Whilst touching upon a permeated vibe and fear that the world might end when the clock strikes 12 on the year 2000, the film also touches upon many aspects and themes that are even more relevant today than at the time the film was made.
Jason SchultzPublished 3 years ago in GeeksWorst films I've seen part 2
Even though the first film article isn't my most read article; it has the most hearts. So I figured, why not give my readers some more movies I absolutely hate. As previously stated in my first article I will not be including films where their goal was to just be shocking or controversial for clout. If you do not see a film you think should be on this list, please refer to my first list. Also a quick heads up if this article does get some more hearts just as my first one did, I will continue this trend of just trash talking films. Also how fitting the cover photo for this article is an empty movie theater, as they probably were when these films came out. First film aside since this movie had a lot of hype behind its' release.

Jonathan SimPublished 3 years ago in GeeksTop 10 Best Movies of 2020!
“It’s been a wonderful year for film, and here’s to 2020. Hope it’s even better.” I wrote that sentence on my “Top 10 Movies of 2019!” list last year. I know. How foolish of me to think that 2020 wouldn’t be the absolute dumpster fire of a year it was. With movie theater closures, nearly every movie release being pushed back, and a push to streaming services, 2020 has been the absolute worst year for film.
Jonathan SimPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMovie Review 'Night of the Kings'
I can honestly say that I am not at all familiar with the rich history of storytelling from Africa’s Ivory Coast. But, after experiencing the new movie Night of the Kings, I am fascinated by the intensity, invention and participatory style they’ve pioneered. The unique and thrilling story told in Night of the Kings uses this fantastic device of traditional storytelling to create a thriller narrative set inside of a famed Ivory Coast prison.

MovieBabblePublished 3 years ago in GeeksA Filmmaker's Guide: True Crime Cinema
In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.
Annie KapurPublished 3 years ago in GeeksWonder Woman 1984 and Excess
Remember the eighties? The time of big hair, Wall Street tycoons who cannot profit enough, and the beginning of franchise films that could not stop milking the beast, think Friday The 13th, which had its seventh sequel by the end of the decade. It was no longer enough to have a great album with photos and a well-thought press campaign. Now you need a music video, nay, you need several music videos. Plus, you have to be good looking to help sell these new music videos. It is the time of cocaine, a drug that feeds your ego and narcissism. In return, this substance drives you to want more, more material goods, more ego, more cocaine, thus, putting you in a perpetual loop.
