It’s 1st March and we know what that means… it’s not only the start of Spring but the 71st edition of the Berlinale kicks off today! There’s a packed programme over the next week and below, we outline which gems we will be catching… 15/2/2021 GFF 2021: What we watching?! By Adam Ray Palmer
It’s that time of the year again, and one of the best festivals around kicks off in the United Kingdom once more… It’s GFF 2021! This year sees a lot of diversity and talent on show and we are excited to be covering the Scottish festival for a fourth year. Here’s s selection of what’s coming up over the next 10 days… 9/8/2020 The Three Rules of a Remake. Recently, we have been doing some thinking about remakes. Mulan is of course a go-to in the current times, but reboots in general really.
A lot of remakes can be made prematurely, or perhaps be long overdue, but even sometimes they can be made out of nowhere, and never really needed. So, with that in mind, we wanted to write down our own “rules of a remake”…  When a new movie is upon us all, what’s the first thing we do? Check IMDB for any updates, then probably watch the trailer, and then perhaps even check alternative posters… well we do!
In this feature, we want to shine a light on the artists who create those complementary artworks for the production companies. In episode #4, we have a stellar foursome for you…  By Adam Ray Palmer
The golden oldie feature continues on Cineroom! Yes, it’s the revisit of the classic ‘Acquire, Hire of Fire’ feature – but this time with me! How does it work I hear you ask? Well, if you Acquire a film, it means you love it. If you ‘Hire’ a film, it makes you like and would rent again; and of course, if you ‘Fire’ a film, you probably hate it. I decided to choose the topic this time, so here is the ‘Emma Stone’ edition…  This day and age, there’s a lot to consider when spending a hard-earned tenner. Maybe three meal deals? Maybe some cigarettes? Or perhaps a crafty cinema ticket?
Sometimes it’s hard to justify a standard cinema trip for a whole family at forty-odd pounds when you can get a brand-new, replay-able DVD for a quarter of that. So, in a nutshell, when we spend our cash at the cinema, where does our money go?  Sometimes, films just stick with you. A lot of the time it’s a specific plot, or a cast member, or even a killer scene that is simply mesmerising.
This feature is inspired by those majestic scenes, but with more of a focus on soundtrack that gives the movie its finishing touch. This is the second episode in this music feature, and there’s another focus on a particular genre…  By Adam Ray Palmer
Battle of the Sequels returns once again! This time we are focusing on two film series, a decade apart… we are calling it the ‘Tolkien Saga’. This battle royale will pit the three Lord of the Rings films and the three Hobbit movies against each other to see which epic comes out on top! Which movie will be the one true film? When a new movie is upon us all, what’s the first thing we do? Check IMDB for any updates, then probably watch the trailer, and then perhaps even check alternative posters… well we do!

In this series, I take a look at different forms of media that will either rival cinema, put cinema at risk or even decline itself because of cinema. Last time out, we looked at YouTube, this feature is on DVDs. DVDs are an interesting topic nowadays, with the decline in sales mainly – but also how the collection of them has become an expensive hobby as streaming is now a cheaper alternative, but I’ll get to that. Let’s start with some facts… |
