Now This Is The Kind Of Movie I Want To See More Of...

Kung Fury... a late Christmas present for a guy just getting back into the blogging groove! Thanks to my buddy Jeff Bond (a la my man Glenn) we get this awesome project called Kung Fury, a proto movie being created in Sweden about a renegade cop in 80s Miami that gets kicked off the force because he is too aggressive... and then decided to go back into time to hunt the greatest Kung Fu villain of all time: The Kung Fuhrer himself, Adolf Hitler! Oh, and there are also dinosaurs, power gloves, Viking warriors, Thor, and much more. Jesus, are you kidding me? The best part about this project has to be that the director has already shot 30 minutes of footage, went to Kickstarter to raise money to travel to Miami to get the background shots he needed for the film, and promptly achieved DOUBLE his goal of 200,000 in funding. So now my man has close to a half a mil to finish this thing up properly. Let's hope he does it and gives us a classic in the vein of Black Dynamite... Check out the trailer and behind the scenes pics after the jump...

M. Night... Love 'Em Or Hate 'Em???

Everybody is poo-pooing all over M. Night Shyamalan lately. His last few films have not captured the audiences the way his first few films had (I think The Happening is the worst movie ever... EVER!!!). I have yet to see The Last Airbender, but its getting smashed by critics (like 12% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes), and believe it or not, some of our C-C-D friends that watcht he cartoon show saw it and thinks it was wonderful! Anyway, our man M is kind of embracing the hate... kinda. First, check out this fake movie he made for MTV called "Escalation", which is supposed to make fun of the new film he wrote (but did not direct) Devil (it takes place in an elevator. Get it, elevator-escalator... meh)

So he seems to be having some fun with the bad reactions he has been getting. The new movie, Devil, featured his name prominetly in the original print ads and TV spots:

Notice the "From the mind of M. Night Shyamalan" along the top of the poster? Seems like the studio wanted to push our boy M's involvement in this sucker. But the subway posters have just hit NYC, and with the film about to be released, they changed the poster a bit:

Same graphics on the poster, no credit to M Dog anymore.... Hmmmmmm, thats interesting, no??? Apparently M might be ok with the negative attitude the public has torwards him, but I do not think the studio finds it so funny. They have chosen to excise M -Diggity's name from the poster. Will people forget he was involved in this movie and maybe give it a good review? We will find out in the next few weeks once the film comes out in September. Till then, we say fuck the M-man haters.... 6th Sense and Unbreakable buys him a pass here at CCD anyday!!!
