"And then I’d say Tomorrow Never Dies, because I think you get a real bang for your buck in that — and I enjoyed making it. It was just a nice, big Bond, going back to the old style. It just kicks arse, and you believe he’s in there getting his arse kicked as well."

"In a bit of a stylistic departure from the Dogme films, which are bound by their namesake, Lars von Trier plays with rear projection and melodrama so beautifully. The color-treated scenes are just jaw-dropping; it’s a perfect marriage of style and substance. Not to mention Jean-Marc Barr is a total dreamboat here."

"Strangelove was one of the reasons I called the Coen Brothers. I became a fan after their first movie [Blood Simple], because it had so much of my home about it — I’m from Texas and I knew people who’d worked on it. And it had a sound and style of storytelling I thought was great."

"The best of the Nathan Zuckerman novels, and that is saying something. The story rewinds several times, postmodern-style, and each retelling is a distinct, sometimes shocking alternative to the previous narratives, and yet the novel’s grip only tightens. Harrowing, funny, sexy, set in England and Israel, New York and New Jersey, altogether splendid."

Hmm...

In not sure about this one. The first one was good, I gave it five stars, but this one was really drawn out and is turning into a reverse harem style series. I struggled from early one and it didn't really get any better for me.

I don't think I'll be continuing the series.

When I first heard this, I immediately thought - Circa Waves. But then as I kept listening and listening it soon became aware of their own sound and style. I've seen them live more times than I can recall. Every time, however, has been as a supporting artist, definitely think they need their own gig!
