Nastuh Abootalebi


Visual effect artist with a showcase that allows the user to view the pre-production and post-production work side by side. Pretty cool

The Best Film of the Year. I said it.


Filmy ones...
I caught Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men last night.
The finest film of the year, in my estimation.
Super smart. Super intense. Michael Caine kills it.
And, it's got all the severed limbs you need.
See it before it's gone (or add it to the DVD list).

Second ShawScope Screening

Screening Thursday Feb. 8th 19.00 hrs, announced (Grand):

The Last King of Scotland

“You came to Africa to play the white man. But we aren't a game. We're real. This room is real. And when you die, it will be the first real thing you have done”



Admitted: Bobby (Like our Bob) is a hard act to follow, but this is our best bet I feel. It opens today, so I hope that no one has to exchange tickets, for any unauthorized private screenings of the film, this weekend. Further details will follow

Get excited:
Video of the real Amin aka. The heavyweight champion of Uganda
The Film: IMDB // Wikipedia

And the title you ask ... It is said that he gave himself the title "His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular."
