Film & TV on DVD - John Doe Film News & Reviews

Greetings Film Fiends and welcome to John Doe's Film Blog. 30 years of dedicated celluloid obsession has meant that I have seen a few films. Drawing attention to some of the lesser discussed gems that I love. Cult classics, obscure curios and quality genre pictures. This blogs purpose is to translate some of my passion for these films and with luck, inspire you the reader to go check em out.

Animated - Film & TV on DVD

Manic Muppet’s Staring Contest.

Danimal versus Animal

muppets, animal, ok go, muppet band, drummer

The Keith Moon of the Muppet World has to be Animal.

Of course Animal has groupies!

It’s almost a matter of tradition now that with each new Muppet highlight that becomes a minor pop culture phenomenon (Do-Do-Da-dodo) John Doe features it here on the site. Most recently there was the Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody. Before that it was the Muppet movie posters. Earlier still it was a review of Season 1 of The Muppet Show to coincide with its arrival on DVD.

This latest morsel may not amuse everyone. Some may watch it and demand a 3 minute refund on their life. But others will have a smirk that morphs into a smile then becomes a giggle and eventually a solid belly laugh to match JD’s reaction.

Starring Johnny’s favourite anarchist monster with a hand up his backside, Animal is front and centre for this comic moment.

Ok Go

As the footage begins a presenter, lead singer of Chicago Rock Band Damian Kulash is interrupted and in whispered tones told that there is something weird happening. Following his band mate down a flight of stairs Damian enters a tension filled room. There he discovers drummer Dan Konopka has got himself into a bit of eye ballin’ trouble with the Muppet’s famous stick master.

To see what happens, watch the video below and keep an eye out for Zach Zach Galifianakis.

Akira 2009

Akira is one of my favourite films of all time. Released in 1988, it’s an achievement not just in Japanese animation of it’s time, but continues to demonstrate a quality of animation that equals that of modern cartoon animation.

Shrek the Third – A Fimink Review

Shrek the Third – A Fimink Review

Regular visitors to the site will know that I freelance for FilmInk magazine. The new issue is on the shelves and a few of my reviews are published online so Johnny thought he would partake in a bit of self promotion. Hope you like them.

A Looney Tunes Monday Morning - Includes Full Length Classic Shorts

What’s your Favourite Looney Tunes Toon?

US DVD Box Set- Available individually in Australia

Whacky, self referential, slyly ridiculing the artistic elite, adult ettitquette and cultural idiosyncrasies, the WB Looney Tunes remain hysterically funny regardless of chronology or maturity.
