Cine: Kaboom (2010)

Ésta es una de esas películas en las que lo real y lo alucinatorio se confunden de tal manera que resulta prácticamente imposible para el espectador saber cuál es cuál. Todo el relato, pergeñado por Greg Arakki ("Mysterious Skin"), deambula entre la comedia, el erotismo, el misterio y e incluso el terror. Su protagonista, Smith (Thomas Dekker), acostumbra tener sueños que involucran a su madre (Kelly Lynch), a su mejor amiga Stella (Haley Bennett) y a tres extrañas chicas, a las que no había conocido antes. Éstas aparecen más tarde: una como pareja de Stella (Lorelei, interpretada por Roxane Mesquida), otra acaba vomitándole en una fiesta (London, en la piel de Juno Temple) y la última como una tal Madeleine (Nicole LaLiberte), de quien sabe poco o nada a pesar de que se le aparece constantemente. Justamente, Madeleine es la protagonista de otro sueño en la que es asesinada por hombres con máscaras de animales.

Smith no termina de admitirse como gay: tiene sus encuentros con chicas, pero le apetece bastante Thor (Chris Zylka), su compañero de cuarto con buen cuerpo y pocas luces, el amigo de éste, Rex (Andy Fischer-Price). Folla con Hunter (Jason Olive), a quien conoce en una playa nudista y hasta se conecta con un tal Oliver (Brennan Mejia). Vida sexualmente productiva para un universitario de dieciocho años. Lamentablemente, la angustia lo llevará por constantes caminos de tensión y desquicio hacia un destino aún más inesperado.

Best of Original Cartoons: Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake

FredFilms Postcard Series 3.7

• How a casual web comic became a MAX series.

Don't think that Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake isn't for you.

Starting as a tossed off web comic by Natasha Allegri –then a storyboard revisionist, now creator/showrunner of Netflix's Bee and PuppyCat– in the summer of 2010, Fionna and Cake starred in some massively popular episodes included in the the original Adventure Time series and then spawned merch, costumes, cosplay and comics.

Mathematical! A woman had the chance to be the hero of her favorite show.

It wasn't uncommon to find gender reversed fan fiction in aughts. But of course, Natasha did her fan fic with art that was perfectly on point. Eric Homan, AT creative executive, put it on our Tumblr and the fandom went nuts.

Soon enough, Cartoon Network would greenlight an 11-minute one-off and lo and behold, an already hit series had it's most popular episode yet. More followed over the next several seasons and if you happened to be at a comic con women who had been cosplaying other series characters all of a sudden were all over the place as Finn-now-Fionna.

KaBOOM! comics knew how popular their Adventure Time was, but they couldn't have anticipated the success of the Natasha written/drawn F&C books.

What we have here is a gen-u-ine phenomenon.

Adam Muto, the showrunner and executive producer of Fionna and Cake, has been with the original Adventure Time series longer than even creator Pendleton Ward. He was Pen's sole Los Angeles co-worker on the original short we produced for Nickelodeon in 2006, went with the show to Cartoon Network in 2009, eventually becoming the creative director. When Pen moved to a consultancy role, Adam became the stellar showrunner, bringing the characters to new and continuing intriguing places. He ran the movie mini-series starring Finn and Jake, Distant Lands, and then took on the leadership of Sam Register's Cartoon Network Studios putting together a full blown F&C series.

Today, MAX drops the first two episodes of a complete Fionna and Cake cartoon series, cementing Adventure Time's status as a bona fide franchise, the coin of the realm in our streaming world.

A web comic-to-series success!

Rhombus!

Drive-Away Dolls

I've just seen Drive-Away Dolls on the big screen (France was late releasing it and my local cinema even more so) and it was a lot of fun! Two lesbians go on a road trip without knowing that there's a severed head in the trunk of the car they've leased.

Note that this movie has a lot of sex: it's rated R in the US and even has a little warning in France (we're not afraid of sex here), so don't plan on watching it with family members. lol It's a mix between the thriller Bound (1996, f/f) and the trippy movie Kaboom (2010, bisexual male protagonist, m/f and m/m). Apparently, we're entitled to a film like this only every 14 years.

Marian is my favourite character because she's clearly demisexual, and probably autistic as well. <3

Kaboom!

It was a good cereal while it lasted. Discontinued in 2010, children raised on Kaboom feel helpless in adulthood without the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune to sustain them during the winter of their discontent.

March 2019 and August 2021. Two flavors of the L.A. apocalypse, part of a larger genre that also includes KISS ME DEADLY, REPO MAN, WILD PALMS, MULHOLLAND DRIVE, and SOUTHLAND TALES.

NOW APOCALYPSE, which came and went in 2019, was created by Gregg Araki and cowritten with Karley Sciortino. It follows four sexually frustrated L.A. 20somethings: Ulysses (Avan Jogia), a stock Araki protagonist (mostly gay, perpetually baked, effortlessly hot) who's been suffering disturbing apocalyptic premonitions and weird visions; Carly (Kelli Berglund), his blond, white, mostly straight bestie, a struggling actress and part-time camgirl who I think is supposed to be Sciortino's self-insert; Ford (Beau Mirchoff), Uly's tragically straight aspiring screenwriter beefcake himbo roommate; and Ford's girlfriend Severine (Roxane Mesquida), an autistic French "astro-biological theorist" whose mysterious top-secret government project is probably connected to Uly's frightening visions.

Allegedly inspired by TWIN PEAKS, NOW APOCALYPSE feels more like a redress of Araki's 2010 film KABOOM. The surreal mystery aspects seem to be trying to make a point about the city's predatory appetite for hot, exploitable 20somethings (underscored by the return of Araki regular James Duval as a tormented homeless man), but if you're expecting the show to pay off or even pay much attention to its own mystery, you'll be disappointed. On the other hand, if you're in it for the sexually fluid horniness (which occupies about 85 percent of the plot and most of Araki and Sciortino's apparent interest), the flashes of weird David Icke-style alien conspiracy nonsense are distracting, and Araki seems either oblivious to or unconcerned about the antisemitic roots of conspiracy theories about sinister "Reptilians." As a modern sex comedy, NOW APOCALYPSE is pretty good, although it's familiar territory for Araki (it's really similar to KABOOM and even NOWHERE) and lacks the bite of his '90s work. The part that ends up standing out is the unexpectedly sensitive treatment of Severine; Mesquida manages to make this abrasive woman (whose personality Carly likens to nail polish remover) seem like a real person, who's not without feelings despite her discomfort with emotional expression.

BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR, created by Nick Antosca and Lenore Zion based on a novel I haven't read, wants very much to be the love child of David Lynch and David Cronenberg: a surreal supernatural black comedy, set in the 1990s, about a driven young filmmaker named Lisa Nova (Rosa Salazar) who turns to witchcraft after she loses control of her unsettling short film to a sleazy producer whose contract she hasn't read carefully. A weird Boyle Heights mystic who calls herself Boro (Catherine Keener at her deadpan best) agrees to curse the producer for her, which has unexpected consequences, beginning with the fact that Lisa now vomits up kittens at regular intervals. Meanwhile, the embittered star of Lisa's short film (Siena Werber) resurfaces to reveal the horrifying events surrounding the making of that film, and some extremely weird things are happening at Lisa's new apartment.

BRAND NEW CHERRY FLAVOR is frustrating because it almost works. It's full of interesting pieces (including a memorable if obviously derivative segue into Cronenberg-esque body horror) that don't quite add up and some spooky moments whose tension the story keeps failing to sustain. (While the showrunners have obviously seen MULHOLLAND DRIVE, their attempts to evoke a Lynchian nightmare-logic sense of incipient dread consistently fall flat.) The biggest issue is that the show can't make up its mind what kind of story it's trying to tell (is it a cautionary tale? a parable about the creative process?), which leaves the protagonist a cipher and many of the story threads going nowhere.

This is a common problem with modern media, especially in this generic vein: Deliberate ambiguity and creative indecision are not the same thing, and if a story lacks clear stakes and thematic direction, all the cool, creepy, intriguing bits in the world won't amount to much. Rosa Salazar tries very hard, but she's hampered by the writers' uncertainty about how we should feel about Lisa, and Manny Jacinto is wasted (literally) in a minor supporting role as her former boyfriend. The standout is Catherine Keener, whose flair for droll understatement makes Boro (who's both more and less than she appears to be) a memorable villain.
