Aqua Teen Hunger Force Is Now A Feature Film

Filed under: Animation », Comedy », Site Announcements », Fandom »

If you have never seen Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the idea of a trio of talking food products -- a meatball, a milkshake, and a box of fries -- would probably not sell you on the show. The animated series was created by Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis, and had been originally intended as a segment for Space Ghost Coast to Coast on the Cartoon Network. Seven years later, the show has slowly achieved cult status and has been available on DVD for a while now. I have to admit, it's provided me with few giggles, but most of the time I was just kind of confused.

MTV news reported that the website for Aqua Teen Hunger Force posted a teaser for the upcoming feature Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Movie. The story follows Meatwad, Master Shake, and Frylock in a battle over a piece of mystical exercise equipment. Willis did provide some other hints as to what to expect, "A personal story? Oh, like a journey? Like learning? No, no, no. They don't learn anything. It's really just 90 minutes of them bickering over their gas bill." Willis also mentioned some celebrity cameos in the film; although the strangest tid-bit was that the soundtrack would include new music from Phil Collins -- that's right, Mr Sussudio himself.

So is anyone excited about Aqua Teen Hunger Force The Movie? Or is it just one of those late-night shows best enjoyed in a cloud of bong smoke.

Review: Miami Vice -- Christopher's Take

Filed under: Action », Drama », Romance », New Releases », Universal », Theatrical Reviews », Remakes and Sequels »


With a Michael Mann film, I've come to expect that I won't have time to open my notebook, let alone jot down many details. His work, which includes Heat, The Insider and Collateral, is typically that engaging. This isn't something I mind, because even though I'm a critic, I prefer to enjoy the movies I'm watching rather than to meticulously dissect them as they play out on the screen. I tend to leave the analysis for when I get home, where I can think about the movie as a whole.

However, with Mann's latest film, Miami Vice, which is based on the hit television show he executive produced in the '80s, I not only found moments in which to open my notebook, but I was bored enough with the film to fill up pages, mostly with ramblings about how little I've come to accept those meet-and-greet scenes involving undercover cops and drug dealers. You know, the ones in which the cops attempt to convince the dealers that they are not what they indeed are. These scenes all proceed in the exact same way, right down to the dealer's doubting bluff, therefore by now they should be easily accepted, and yet I always find them instead to be ridiculously unbelievable. Anyway, I could go on -- I did during the movie -- but there's no point in concentrating on one little scene. Besides, I wrote down a lot of other things that I can share, such as, "This movie has some awesome clouds in it." I think that note especially speaks for how engaging the actual story was for me.
