Movies You May Have Missed 018: Don’t get blocked by ‘The Five Obstructions’

Lars Von Trier is ALWAYS a trip, but this is one of his most meta accomplishments. Von Trier holds film maker Jorgen Leth hostage, challenging him to remake one of his earliest experimental short films. All the while adding barriers to try and break one of his favorite directors while celebrating his genius at the same time.

Movies You May Have Missed was a film review podcast produced by Lee Buckley, Juan, and Marie Bagnell starting back in 2009. We focused on reviews of films we enjoyed, but which didn’t get the attention they deserved. Each episode was a spoiler free love letter to a piece of cinema. The podcast ran for three straight years, producing over 150 episodes, and at its peak was downloaded over 3 million times per month.

Friday Film Fan: Movies You May Have Missed 015 – ‘Better Luck Tomorrow’ Fast & Furious Prequel?

One of Lee’s first experiences with independent, low budget films. Notable as he’s since met most of the people that have worked on this film. A charming look at Asian American students flirting with their darker natures.

Friday Film Fan: Movies You May Have Missed 013 – ‘Seconds’ Rock Hudson and the Hollywood blacklist…

One of Juan’s all time favorite films, and of course to Lee’s chagrin, it’s in black and white. Strap in for a Twilight Zone-like story of tension and paranoia, featuring an incredible cast, from a fantastic director.

A new home for ‘Movies You May Have Missed’?

In 2009, three friends produced a movie review webseries called Movies You May Have Missed. It ran successfully for three years, but we were never able to host it on Youtube or monetize it.

We’re hoping VidMe can be a new home for this show. Is it possible to resurrect a long defunct webseries? That’s my experiment.

Friday Film Fan: Movies You May Have Missed 010 – Kurt Vonnegut Jr’s ‘Mother Night’

Adapting a Vonnegut novel for the big screen is an ambitious undertaking. Mother Night examines Nazi Germany through a radio broadcaster’s life while twisting our brains up by messing with time. Interesting premise, fantastic production design, and a phenomenal cast, it’s a shame more people haven’t seen it…
