It's sad that what sounds like mental illness or PTSD is being mined for a good old boy rah rah America movie, but I didn't know him and I haven't seen the movie, so whatever.

He's not as cool as this guy, who wrote a series of spy thriller novels, starring himself, as sequels to his real life military memoirs.

And one amazing, jingoistic video game!

I feel like the guy is being directed by Mondo or the trademark holders on how to design these things because honestly he does do good work. I have this print on my wall right now and I absolutely adore it:

What's hilarious is that if you watch the "making of" featurette for that game, you can tell why they voiced his video game avatar with Mickey Rourke. The guy sounds like a grandmother.

It's probably because they couldn't find anything else remotely positive to say about it.

Literally one of my favorite bad movies of all time, the poster still doesn't do it justice. It got knocked out for five bucks and a sandwich to compete with the DeLaurentiis King Kong flick.

I find it funny that the tagline is "The Defining Chapter" when the entire movie is an adaptation of one chapter of the book. A background event from that chapter, no less, because this is Middle Earth and we have to have epic fantasy fights in our adaptation of a literal children's book.

"C'mon! Let's tune our weapons!"

I know the guy who's making this. Ghost Shark 2 is still in post-production, and has been made for practically nothing in New Zealand over the last four years.

Then suddenly Sci-Fi puts out a trailer for THIS back in 2011;



Starring Richard Moll of all people.

Thus being the first case I know of a movie being ripped-off by it's unrelated "prequel" before it even comes out.

Suffice it to say, the director is less than happy with Sci-Fi.

Also coming out of New Zealand this year, a documentary on the world's oldest hip-hop crew.



LEXI, a drama about two people who can't make eye conact with each other, apparently...



and THE DEAD LANDS, the first-ever Maori Martial Arts flick. Colour me intrigued.
