Gunfighter Paradise (2024)

Like a Southern fried “Donnie Darko,” writer/director Jethro Waters’s darkly comic dissection of America and masculinity is truly one of the most unique and bizarre dark comedies to come out of the independent circuit. I don’t think audiences are ready for what someone like Waters has in store, placing America’s current social climate up to a big lens and lending some insight in to the lunacy of it all, and how the lunacy has become the new norm.
Every Bugs Bunny Ever: Frigid Hare (1949)
Frigid Hare (1949)
Directed by Chuck Jones
Written by Michael Maltese
Animation by Phil Monroe
Music by Carl Stalling
I think “Frigid Hare” is the point in Bugs Bunny’s career when he stopped being a mere foil or protagonist and started being something of a hero. When he finally steps up to defend a small penguin named “Playboy,” who–a very small cute penguin… from the wrath of an inuit. That’s the exact time Bugs started becoming something of a hero for the little guy. All of the other scenarios of Bugs giving in to his baser urges to be egomaniacal, or just plain antagonistic are a bar he’s just toppled. With “Frigid Hare” the animators and writers set a high bar with a short where we’d see him defending and fighting for other smaller animals in the near future.

With the debut of Ishina Night Shyamalan I was hopeful that we would get a bold new voice for the genre film. Instead, she offers up a lukewarm, barely edible movie that fails as cinema, and failed as a movie you cam just use it as a means of killing time on a boring Sunday. You won’t kill time, but you might just doze off every now and then, thanks to its almost pride in tedium and dullness. For almost a ninety minutes movie, Shyamalan’s movie is painfully uneven in tone and pacing slowing down big time in various moments as a means to stage her clunky symbolism.
