Strange Movie Titles...

So I found this on the web sometime ago and planed on sharing it then, the great computer disaster of 2011 happened. This brought many lost files, photos and plans to the table... as I still recover from it I find this kind of stuff...

Enjoy!

21 Questions: Jason Tammemagi [Artist]

With: Jason Tammemagi

Tell us about your career and what you are currently working on or involved with?
I make TV shows for young children. I created, wrote and directed a preschool show called Fluffy Gardens and have directed several other shows. I arrived here by way of animation, moving from animator to director, on commercials then to children's television. I'm currently working on a new show, COSMO, which aims to teach young children the basics about the Solar System through fun, silly adventures.

Is this what you thought you would be doing with your life, what was your first passion?
You know, I had no idea what I would do with my life. I watched a lot of children's television and I was always drawing but it wouldn't have been something I thought of early on. I mean, I don't think I knew that people could do this as a job. I've had a lot of passions and went down a few roads but this is the one that stuck. And I love it. There are few things as rewarding as making children smile and knowing you're giving them something really good.

To whom do you credit your success to, who gives or gave you the most support?
I've had people believe in me at points in my life, probably more than I did. I probably never would have arrived here at all if not for my mother's willingness to allow me to act on my uncertainty, which is probably a lot harder than being supportive when your child is certain. I dropped out of University not because I knew what I wanted to do, but because I knew what I was doing wasn't it. I found animation. In animation, my biggest champion has always been my producer, Gerard O'Rourke, who took a lot of chances on me over the years. He pushed me into writing, for example, believing I could do it long before there was any evidence that he was right. And, of course, my wife is always supportive. She sees all the work that doesn't get out there and knows what I can do (or can't) more than anyone as a result. She understands fully where I'm at and it's so important to have someone like that.

If you could meet or work with [living or dead], who would that be and why?
I'd love to meet William Shatner. That man is a god. He has so much personality and he's comedy gold, something he didn't seem to get much credit for early in his career. I think he's fantastic. Bruce Campbell too. The chin. I'd love to work with both.

What would you like to be remembered for 100 years from now?
If I'm remembered at all, I'll be doing well. But, secretly, I hope I won't have to be remembered because I'll actually still be here. Maybe in a robot body.

Who inspires you?
Most of the people I work with. I'm lucky to work with really creative people. And I have a lot of classic cartoon influences, particularly in UK television: Oliver Postgate, Roger Hargreaves, Bob Godfrey and so on.

How are things different today, than the same day 1 year ago?
I'm older. Little closer to that robot body. But things are less certain. I'm in a fragile business, one I don't even really consider a business. I'm just lucky to be doing what I'm doing. I was still doing my one-a-day zombies a year ago. That was pressure! I have been going a bit easier on myself with the zombies.

What is the last song you bought or listened to in your musical device [ipod, computer, stereo, etc.]?
I just bought Myth, a Xenogears arranged album by Mitsuda. As I'm answering these questions, I have Devlin, a UK rapper, on in the background.

Last good film you had seen, and the best movie you would recommend to someone asking?
Last film I saw in the cinema was Tron Legacy. I loved it. I was so hyped for it and it didn't disappoint. As for best movie I'd recommend, probably Session 9 because I know it's one a lot of people haven't seen. It's a wonderful horror film.

What is the single greatest moment in your life?
I'm hoping I haven't had it yet! I've had some great moments but I'm working towards even greater ones.

Favorite Horror Film?
Day of the Dead.

Favorite Book?
Right now it's an encyclopedia of the Universe.

Favorite Song?
Agh! Do I have to choose? There are too many. Noel Coward's 20th Century Blues is coming to mind.

Favorite Film Character?
That's tough too. McDermott from Day of the Dead.

Favorite Film Composer?
John Harrison (spotting a theme?)

Favorite Thing In Your Home?
My latest handheld (now PSP Go but soon to be 3DS)

Favorite First Pet?
Favourite pet was my dog Reg, who was my best buddy for 17 years. I still miss him.

Favorite Coffee Or Tea?
Coffee. Though I drink more tea.

Favorite Phrase?
Poopy-yuk. My two-year-old keeps throwing that at me and I keep on laughing.

Favorite Hiding Place [Not that we are looking]?
My own head. I spend a lot of time there.

If you could tell someone something someone told you, "words to live by" what would that be?
Strive for excellence.

Fast Five [2011]

Vin Diesel and Paul Walker lead a reunion of returning all-stars from every chapter of the explosive franchise built on speed in Fast Five. In this installment, former cop Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) partners with ex-con Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) on the opposite side of the law. Dwayne Johnson joins returning favorites Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Matt Schulze, Sung Kang, Gal Gadot, Tego Calderon and Don Omar for this ultimate high-stakes race.

Since Brian and Mia Toretto (Brewster) broke Dom out of custody, they've blown across many borders to elude authorities. Now backed into a corner in Rio de Janeiro, they must pull off one last job in order to gain their freedom. As they assemble their elite team of top racers, the unlikely allies know their only shot of getting out for good means confronting the corrupt businessman who wants them dead. But he's not the only one on their tail.

Hard-nosed federal agent Luke Hobbs (Johnson) never misses his target. When he is assigned to track down Dom and Brian, he and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture them. But as his men tear through Brazil, Hobbs learns he can't separate the good guys from the bad. Now, he must rely on his instincts to corner his prey...before someone else runs them down first.

21 Questions: Danielle Soloud [Artist]

With: Danielle Soloud

When did you realize that you could create art and how did you act on it?
I don't think it's something that necessarily gets realized but that gets done. I've always loved "making art", I'm obsessed with creating and drawing, literally. In a sense it's almost like asking when did I realize I could breathe and how did I act on it!

Who is your inspirations within the art world?
Bruce Timm, J. Scott Campbell, Jim Lee, Chris Sanders, Glen Keane, Adam Hughes, and a more general inspiration would be Disney and 1980's-1990's anime.

What are you currently doing in the art field?
I do a lot of sketch cards for companies, my webcomic Life with Death, and other random projects.

What advice would you give someone trying to accomplish the same things you are?
Draw as much as possible, whenever possible. Try new things and experiment. It's going to be horrible at times, your heart will get broken constantly and you may want to give up, but you can't. Not if you really want to be a good artist.

What is favorite piece?
A piece that I'm really excited and fond of is my Sai O'Nara character poster for an upcoming comic I'm to start working on.
http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/034/3/7/379aaa6736d0a4a09520443701291af7-d38os0x.jpg

How do you decide what is next?
It's difficult! There's so many ideas and things to do that it's hard to find a place to start. Sometimes I'll do what I feel at that time will come out best. Or if I start something that I'm not feeling, I'll switch to something else. I like to work on multiple things at a time to keep everything fresh and avoid feeling complete hatred for something.

Have you ever drawn anyone famous, that has seen your sketches?
Not that I know of, but Soulja Boy contacted me and told me he liked my work.

How do you get your word out in the world?
Conventions and internet!

Have you ever drawn something and immediately threw it out, cause it was just too...?
Constantly. If I think something is terrible I'm not going to keep going on it. I've actually finished things and hated it so much that I had to redo it. It's important to be proud of the work you put out there. Even though that can be difficult since, like most artists, I'm my own worst critic.

Many pieces of your art are very vixen-esque, do you find it helps sells better?
I have no doubt that it helps. I think most everyone can agree that the female form is beautiful.

What is the silliest request you have been asked to do?
A grandpa tentacle monster sitting around, telling a story to young tentacle monsters about how back in his day they only had Japanese school girls. It was awesome.

Where can we find your work [location, web, etc.]?
The sites I update the most are:
My main site: http://www.DanielleSoloud.com
My webcomic: http://www.LifeWithDeath.com
and my DeviantArt: http://dsoloud.deviantart.com

Do you find it tougher being a woman in a sort of man club when it comes to drawing or creating?
No, this hasn't been an issue for me so far. As long as you're doing your best then I think your work speaks for you and that's what matters.

First and last thing you do in the day?
Draw.

Do you use music as a catalyst for creating your art, if so what do you listen to?
Yes! I change it up depending on what I'm drawing and how I'm feeling. Generally I listen to 80's pop, classic rock, surf rock, and electro.

Any shows we can see and meet you at, at the very least say hello?
Right now I'm only staying on the east coast and sticking to local cons for the most part in Florida. Although I do go to Heroes Con in North Carolina and considering Baltimore. I hope to expand to more cons along the east coast and then eventually the west coast. I welcome anyone to stop by my table and say hello!

If you could design the next dollar bill, what would it look like and how would it be different?
Oh dear. I would be a terrible choice for the next dollar bill. It would be neon green with unicorns holding AK-47s shooting rainbows out and they'd be saying, "AMERICA, BITCH!"

Digital art or hand drawn?
Both! I don't think an artist should stick 100% to either. There's plenty of pros and cons to both.

Last film you saw that you hated, but gave it another look cause you thought you may have been to rough on it the first time?
I definitely wouldn't say hate, but the first time I saw The Other Guys, I thought it was just okay. When I watched it again, I thought it was absolutely hilarious. I've seen it more times than I can remember now and it's now one of my favorite movies.

Puppets with or without strings, why?
Without strings. I don't want them to be able to choke me or cut off my head with that string when they come alive to kill me.

Your Highness [2011]

Just Because You Throw "YE OLDE" In Front Of Something...

Doesn't Make It True.

Throughout history, tales of chivalry have burnished the legends of brave, handsome knights who rescue fair damsels, slay dragons and conquer evil. But behind many a hero is a good-for-nothing younger brother trying just to stay out of the way of those dragons, evil and trouble in general. Danny McBride and James Franco team up for an epic comedy adventure set in a fantastical world--Your Highness. As two princes on a daring mission to save their land, they must rescue the heir apparent's fiancée before their kingdom is destroyed.

Thadeous (McBride) has spent his life watching his perfect older brother Fabious (Franco) embark upon valiant journeys and win the hearts of his people. Tired of being passed over for adventure, adoration and the throne, he's settled for a life of wizard's weed, hard booze and easy maidens. But when Fabious' bride-to-be, Belladonna (Zooey Deschanel), gets kidnapped by the evil wizard Leezar (Justin Theroux), the king gives his deadbeat son an ultimatum: Man up and help rescue her or get cut off.

Half-assedly embarking upon his first quest, Thadeous joins Fabious to trek across the perilous outlands and free the princess. Joined by Isabel (Natalie Portman)--an elusive warrior with a dangerous agenda of her own--the brothers must vanquish horrific creatures and traitorous knights before they can reach Belladonna. If Thadeous can find his inner hero, he can help his brother prevent the destruction of his land. Stay a slacker, and not only does he die a coward, he gets front row seats to the dawn of an all-new Dark Ages.

But under a blood red moon, the wolf has upped the stakes by taking a human life. Hungry for revenge, the people call on famed werewolf hunter, Father Solomon (Oldman), to help them kill the wolf. But Solomon's arrival brings unintended consequences as he warns that the wolf, who takes human form by day, could be any one of them. As the death toll rises with each moon...
