All Quiet On The Western Front

Something I wrote for Solute for their Year of the Month (1928) on the Remarque novel:

Year of the Month: Joseph Finn on All Quiet On The Western Front

Sometimes I Guest On Things!

As we ramp up on our movie watching for 2018, why not join me as I guest on We Love To Watch and we discuss the best movies of...2016?  (We're not fancy-pants pros with their press screenings; I actually have something in my top ten here that I saw three days before we recorded this.)

The Last Jedi (2017)

A sea change in Star Wars.

The Disaster Artist (2017)

What might have been if they had taken a step back and dug further.

Justice League (2017)

The team assembles and it's not quite as super as it could be.

Hey, I Wrote A Thing!

The folks over at The Solute were nice enough to let me ramble on about Dave, its interestingly cynical fantasy feel and the terrible DVD menus it has, for their Year Of The Month feature on 1993!  I'm pretty happy with how this came out.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989)

Jesus, what a nonsensical turd. About the only good thing I can say about it is that Alice gets brought
back from 4 and doesn't get killed off (I hate that trope). Dumb, cruel, shoddy looking and kind of mean.  Avoid at all costs, and here's hoping Nightmare 6 is somewhat better.
