My birthday is this coming Monday. You know what would be a great present? Tell a friend about Renegade Cut and send them a link to my Blip page. I don’t ask my audience for donations. I mean, for what? The show has a budget of zero. I also don’t need anyone to send me DVD’s to watch. I live on the Internet. How do you think I’m watching all these movies? But just let a friend know my show exists. That’s more than enough.
I find that I notice things I missed the first time every so often (Ravenous, Toy Story, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) with movies I enjoy, but if I didn’t like a movie the first time, I will almost never see it again.
I’m not brilliant. That’s not false modesty either. I’m just not. I can write reasonably well and articulate my points. I have no formal training in film. I just watch a lot of movies and have a bunch of weird ideas when I do.
Renegade Cut: That One Movie — What is that one movie you feel compelled to watch if it happens to come on television? Starring Brad Jones, Mat Williams, Dan Olson, Patrick Brogan, Jack Shen and Leon Thomas.
Renegade Cut: Killing the Dog — In a movie, when is it appropriate to kill the dog? Warning: Contains spoilers and graphic images.
Renegade Cut: Iron Sky and Not Bad Movies — Iron Sky is not a bad movie. It is not a so-bad-it’s-good movie. It’s a genuinely good movie.
All kinds. My favorite artists are Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, The Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys, Counting Crows, The Mountain Goats, Stew & The Negro Problem and They Might Be Giants.
Renegade Cut: The Endor Holocaust — Can the Star Wars films be explained by science? What happened to the Ewoks once Return of the Jedi ended?
Renegade Cut - Willy Wonka: Child Murderer — A wacky (and frightening) fan theory about the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
