A Spike Lee Joint: “OldBoy” (Explicit Red Band Trailer)
July 16, 2013
‘Nothing is more twisted than the truth.’
True indeed. And nothing, in recent times, is more twisted than this movie from Spike Lee. His version of “OldBoy” is an interpretation of the original Korean flick by the same name. Here’s a Wikipedia passage on it:
‘The film follows the story of one Oh Dae-su, who is locked in a hotel room for 15 years without knowing his captor’s motives. When he is finally released, Dae-su finds himself still trapped in a web of conspiracy and violence. His own quest for vengeance becomes tied in with romance when he falls for an attractive sushi chef.’
The core of the story was maintained in the Spike Lee joint, with Josh Brolin as the imprisoned lead. So was the gore (the trailer hints at some of it). Yeah. Spike went there with this one.
Starring: Josh Brolin, Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen (twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s younger sister), James Ransone (from Spike’s “Red Hook Summer”), Sharlto Copley (the dude that played ‘Murdock’ in the “A-Team” movie).

Gods’illa- “Sal’s Pizzeria” (Video)
January 10, 2012
This is the new video from DMV representatives Gods’illa, from their CPR Blendtape hosted by Erykah Badu. “Sal’s Pizzeria” is a tribute to the classic Spike Lee joint “Do the Right Thing”. The CPR Blendtape was most definitely one of the best releases of 2011, which displayed these brotha’s abilities to spit content and substance over a variety of styles while maintaining a quality sound. I had the pleasure of meeting Gods’illa in 2010, and like I said then, these cats are going to do damage in the game for a long time, so get used to the name.Enjoy!
