Our guest columnist Chris MacKenzie watched a documentary a day in January. He reports on the great non-fiction films he saw in PART ONE of a ten-part series.
A Greek Drama all dressed up like a Black Comedy (No, not the Tyler Perry kind, the other kind of black comedy).
Not as much fun as a pageant of big-breasted women.
Self-congratulation is still the rage in TinselTown. Let’s jump in, shall we? Here are all the awards that will go out week after week until the Oscars, February 24th, 2013.

The Cultural Impact of Christopher Nolan’s Batman Films and How Heath Ledger Tricked You Into Believing “The Dark Knight” Was the Trilogy’s “The Empire Strikes Back”.
Be that guy at the party who knows shit. Movie Guy Matteo Molinari has compiled facts to impress the people around you, organized in numerical fashion. Enjoy.
I’m the first to get cynical when it comes to 3D re-issues, reboots, remakes and all that. But Pixar movies are timeless, and I think should be back in theaters every five years or so, 3D or not.
Ridley Scott’s neo-noir, cyberpunk vision of Los Angeles in 2019 is one of those touchstone filmic environments that is so imaginative and so fully realized onscreen that it immediately transports you into its reality. Would it were that something more memorable happened there.
Is this the best movie ever made? Well, the great thing about movies is that arguing what the best one of all time is can keep you arguing until you pass out. But this is certainly my favorite, hands down.
“The Odd Life of Timothy Green” is about a sterile couple, so…start getting excited.
This film plays out like a quality western without the old west.
Perhaps in years to come, once we’ve gotten a little more distance on it, the entire Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy will be thought of in the public mind less as an entire piece, and more along the lines of “The one with Heath Ledger in it as Joker, and the other two.”
The Movie Guys give the once-over to July movie releases, including SAVAGES, THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, KATY PERRY: PART OF ME, ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT, STEP UP: REVOLUTION and THE WATCH. Quick, sharp and funny, we’ll tell you what they’re all about.
Movie Guys Paul Preston and Christanna Rowader stopped in on LA TALK RADIO’s “Broad Topics” to lay down a ton of material on “The Bourne Legacy” and “Hope Springs”. It’s a review, it’s jokes, it’s both.
Prepare for old people sex. Meryl moaning, crotch shots of Tommy Lee Jones. Just don’t say I didn’t prepare you.
I started to ponder about stupid movie titles — titles that are quite odd or that don’t seem to know what the movie is they’re representing.
Every documentary has an ideal audience that would benefit most from it’s messages. Here, that audience would be young adults who are thinking of going into stand up comedy (yes, there are people in this world who are thinking of doing that somewhere).
Movie Guys Paul Preston and Karen Volpe appeared for on LATalkRadio.com’s “Oh, Mary!” and stayed for the duration! They talked new movies, their history and what The Movie Guys are all about.
It’s a horrible tragedy when violence upsets something like a sporting or holiday event. But when violence mars the arts, I find it especially disturbing.
I won’t regurgitate the same old manure you could get EVERYWHERE else. Instead, I will inform you of my own personal journey. It is so much sweeter (and it has funnier (and hotter, I might add) pictures).
Christopher Nolan doesn’t make bad movies. Ever. Even this one looks great. Two bits of awesomeness stitched together.
Movie Guy Paul Preston talks with afternoon anchors Bonnie Petrie and Mike Barajas about what’s new in theaters. Continuing coverage of summer movies, Paul reviews “Ted” and “The Amazing Spider-Man”.
In this clip from The Movie Guys LIVE!, June 2012, David and Paul discuss whether Princess Merida of “Brave” is Irish or the other thing (Scottish), and they get the whole cast involved.
Inspired by the June 2012 release “Brave”
On the whole, I can recommend “Ted”. There are a ton of good laughs and if you’re a “Family Guy” fan, the faithful were out at the screening I went to and it was a huge crowd-pleaser.
After “Cars 2”, it’s good to know that some of Hollywood’s best filmmakers can pick themselves up and dust themselves off so quickly.
