This year’s 12th edition of the Scary Movies festival at Film at Lincoln Center premiered Ari Aster’s extended version of “Midsommar” this past Saturday.
It's about time they made a film about Tupac Shakur. Notorious was a dud, but Straight Outta Compton was such fresh and vitally alive filmmaking experience that I have to say I'm quite excited for this. I know many Tupac songs, maybe not enough, but his life story should be told. It looks a gangster film through and through, but check out Tupac lookalike Demetrius Shipp Jr. Did they wait two decades to make this movie just to get a guy that looks EXACTLY like Shakur? Danny Boom directs and his directing credits include episodes of NCIS: Los Angeles, 90210, and 50 Cent: Special Edition - The Massacre. Yikes.
