A Filmmaker's Guide to 80 Things You Should Know About "The Matrix" (1999)
"The Matrix" (1999) is known for its revolutionary film techniques, its visionary composition, its amazing visuals and its intense score which only made the tense scenes a lot more tense. The vision was first established by the wonderful Wachowski Sisters. I personally really enjoyed the first film, but I didn't enjoy the other two that much. The first one was very enjoyable and felt like a real experience, whereas I think maybe the novelty wears off after this. I think that the cultural impact of "The Matrix" (1999) reaches to far more than just fancy visuals and media experiences of different kinds because if that were the case then why do people still watch the film today with all the newer and more novelty film mediums being released?

Unpopular Opinion: Batman & Robin is a good ‘comic book’ film
It is a truth universally acknowledged that ‘Batman & Robin’ is the worst film ever made. It’s been over 20 years since the film debuted to great revile, and people are still talking about it. Every time a new Batman property is announced, the distaste for ‘Batman & Robin’ rears its head once again. There’s no arguing that the film isn’t polished, but is it really a bad ‘comic book’ film?

Black Womanhood in Film
I am buggin’! Cher and Dionne are totally back in style! The dynamic duo will be back on the big screen as the 25th anniversary of Clueless approaches in early May. Of course, like any Clueless fan, I am so excited about the nostalgia this particular movie brings. Although the movie became an instant 90's classic, it will soon make is combat in today's pop culture. The campaign called black girl magic is taking the front stage of equality in the film and media industry. The movement inspired me to share my memories of Clueless and what it means to me as a black woman.

The Godfather, Casablanca, Back To The Future: All Undeniable Classics That Can Be Remade. Top Story - March 2020.
When asked whether he would sign off on seeing his time-traveling comedy classic receive the remake treatment, Back To The Future director Robert Zemeckis emphatically replied with an "oh, God no... That can’t happen until both [his writing partner] Bob [Gale] and I are dead. And then I’m sure they’ll do it, unless there’s a way our estates can stop it."

FLINT
...So this I haven’t really shared with anyone, well with the exception of my wife Natalie and maybe... I can’t remember right now to be honest, if I told my agent Barb. Let’s keep this between us and the Internet. It’s on my mind simply because of all these Facebook memories that keep popping daily about my time on the set of the movie “Flint” a couple years back.

Scary Disney: Pinocchio: The Coachman, Donkeys and The Whale
Pinocchio. The famous wooden puppet who was magicked to life by a blue fairy and desired to be a real boy one day. Mr Disney made a masterpiece of this but left a few dark details that we’d all remember for years to come. Honest John and his pal Gideon the cat lead him astray from school one day and convinced him to join a puppet show with a man called Stromboli. After an outstanding show Pinocchio wishes to go home, but Stromboli has other plans and locks him in a bird cage against Pinocchio's own will, a nightmare for all children. Miss Blue Fairy appears from nowhere, and then Pinocchio starts to lie about his whereabouts that day, not a very good role model to kids here, he vows to be good and Miss Blue Fairy lets him go. Stromboli could have been nicer by offering him money, fame and telling Geppetto, but I guess the whole story would have been different that way. The word kidnap comes to mind, which gives off a bad message to its audiences. Pinocchio is led to Pleasure Island where he makes a friend, Lampwick, he smokes, drinks which leads to him being half turned into a donkey, he runs away and ends up jumping into the ocean trying to save his Father. He comes across a montster of a whale, Monstro, who has Gepetto living in his mouth. Pinocchio manages to save his father and the Blue Fairy turns him into a human, a happy ending for everyone. The movie did however leave in a few scenes enough to scar its viewers for the rest of their lives.

Scary Disney: Fantasia: Yen Sid, The Dinosaurs and The Night on Bald Mountain
Fantasia. Walt Disneys third movie. A stunning masterpiece leaving its audiences in awe. We see pieces from a creepy wonderful sorcerer, dinosaurs teaching us evolution and the magnificent Chernabog leaving us with nightmares for the rest of our lives. The music and the images are certainly beautiful making us remember this movie for years to come. Walt certainly did a good job with this movie.
