4 Shots From 4 Paul Thomas Anderson Films: Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood, The Master, Phantom Thread


4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking.

Yesterday was the birthday of one of our greatest filmmakers, Paul Thomas Anderson!  This edition of 4 Shots From 4 Films is dedicated to him and his brilliant career!

4 Shots From 4 Paul Thomas Anderson Films

Boogie Nights (1997, dir by Paul Thomas Anderson)

There Will Be Blood (2007, dir by Paul Thomas Anderson)

The Master (2012, dir by Paul Thomas Anderson)

Phantom Thread (2017, dir by Paul Thomas Anderson)

 

Music Video of the Day: Lisa by Lita Ford (1990, dir by ????)


Earlier today, on a whim, I decided to do a YouTube search for any songs titled “Lisa.”

This was the first one that came up.  Other than what I saw in that Runaways movies, I have to admit that I  don’t really know anything about Lita Ford (and, to honest, I can’t even remember if her character had more than 6 lines in that film).  According to Songfacts, Ford wrote this song in honor of her mother, who was dying of cancer.  This is one of those songs where you can literally feel the heart beating underneath the lyrics.

As for the video, it’s pretty simple but there’s nothing wrong with that.

Enjoy!

Here’s The Trailer For Zoe!


When this trailer started, I was excited because I was thinking it was going to turn into a horror movie.

Then I saw that it was from the director of Like Crazy and I was like, “Oh, never mind.”  I would probably be more enthusiastic about this particular trailer if I hadn’t already recently seen about a hundred movies and television shows that all deal with the exact same premise.

I did enjoy Like Crazy, though.

Here’s The Super Dangerous Red Band Trailer For The Predator!


When it comes to Shane Black’s The Predator, we’ve had a family friendly trailer and an action trailer.  Today, we got a Red Band Trailer!

That’s right, it’s red band!  That mean that it has cursing and blood and the middle finger and everything and it can only be shown before R-rated films.  There’s nothing more dangerous than a Red Band Trailer!

So, here’s the Super Dangerous Red Band Trailer for The Predator, which will probably be really good because it was directed by Shane Black:

 

Music Video of the Day: God Gave Me Everything by Mick Jagger featuring Lenny Kravitz (2001, dir by Mark Romanek)


After writing 24 hours worth of material for World UFO Day, I’m a little bit exhausted so I’m offering this energetic video up without comment.

Enjoy!
