Sum Up | 2018 in Review

The Stop Button Posted by on Jan 27, 2019

I didn’t have any big plans for The Stop Button in 2018 other than blogathons and whatever came up. Comics Fondle I was reading all of Love and Rockets, which took more than 2018. But Stop Button… well, marathon training. It was going to take up a lot of time. Of the 157 feature films… the three read more

I got one episode left on “Punisher” Season Two and I’m dreading it. I’ve read skimmed the posts about the concerning finish. Like multi-level concerning finish. And it’s already been a self-indulgent season. Two episodes of selling Jon Bernthal as a heartthrob, the en read more

Icarus XB 1 (1963, Jindrich Polák)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jan 25, 2019

It’s very difficult, even when an effects shot fails, to not be impressed with director Polák’s practical ambitions with Icarus XB 1. The film needs effects shot-it’s about a starship on twenty-eight month voyage from Earth to Alpha Centauri. The first starship to take that trip. So there’s read more

The Quiet Room (1993, Steven Soderbergh)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jan 24, 2019

The Quiet Room really, really, really, relies on its twist. The ending is really predictable too; like, director Soderbergh and writer Howard A. Rodman do way too well on the foreshadowing. Because Room is a slightly exaggerated noir–part of the “Fallen Angels” TV anthology– read more

Love and Rockets #50 (May 1996)

The Stop Button Posted by on Jan 23, 2019

Love and Rockets #50 is a perfectly solid issue of Love and Rockets. Beto’s Palomar farewell is outstanding in its execution, with him employing a lot more comic strip-influenced narrative techniques than usual. He doesn’t have enough room, it’s clear, and some things are rushed. Mario’s back read more

Hello Destroyer (2016, Kevan Funk)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jan 22, 2019

With Hello Destroyer, writer and director Funk spares down a character study. He saps the action from it–and there’s a lot of potential action, as the character the film studies is a rookie pro hockey player (Jared Abrahamson). Abrahamson’s a quiet loner who fits in well enough wi read more

Recorded Live (1975, S.S. Wilson)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Jan 21, 2019

Recorded Live is a student film. So director, writer, and animator Wilson’s flat composition gets some wide latitude. He’s got this silly slapstick score on a sound picture, with John Goodwin getting hired to work at an already strange-sounding TV studio only to arrive there and discover a sack read more

Three-feet thick

The Stop Button Posted by on Jan 21, 2019

I really need to do something with Summing Up‘s theme. It bothers me. It’s been a nightmare so far. Possibly because I decided to start blogging on it again so soon before I did. I still remember when it was fun to set up a blog for anything. The ease of it, which still seems to be part read more
