• From AFI 100 to the Fanboy 100?

  Film Blog Daily Film Dose has put their own twist on AFI's revised Top 100 American Films as released earlier this year. Using their own semi-scientific formula similar to the guidelines applied in AFI's own voting, Daily Dose has determined what they believe to be "The Fanboy 100."

  The Godfather takes over the top spot followed by Psycho and Pulp Fiction. Psycho makes a decent jump from 14th to 2nd, while Pulp travels all the way up the list from 94th to 3rd place. Casablanca drops a spot from 3rd to 4th and Citizen Kane drops all the way from the top spot to number 5 in fanboy land.

  Check out the full list from Daily Dose right here.

• Tom Leupp tells it like it is in his Grindhouse review

  Tom's review of Grindhouse is now live on the site and, as of yet, it's certainly not the popular opinion. The reviews are looking pretty strong so far, but you have to wonder who's doing the praising? Rottentomatoes shows an 87 % so far, but... I have a question. Would anyone give a !%# about this movie if it were directed by anyone other than fanboy figureheads Tarantino and Rodriguez?

  

  I didn't like the movie, as I expressed the other day. Now, before you call me a naysayer, understand that I loved Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Sin City, El Mariachi, etc. I was really looking forward to this movie. Unfortunately, Grindhouse just a BIG FAT LETDOWN.
