Because I am an insane person and I like to do stupid things, I thought it would be a good idea to watch every single DreamWorks Animation film. All of them. Chronologically.
That is 36 films. 35 of which were theatrical.
First up: ANTZ (1998)
BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW (2010) – A Psychic Burn
[This article was originally written as an assignment for my degree.]
Panos Cosmatos’ 2010 debut, Beyond The Black Rainbow is a strong statement of intent. The film crosses the genre line between science-fiction horror and psycho-thriller, whilst simultaneously identifying as a piece of film from the plots period, 1983.
MANDY (2018): Revenge is a hallucination
[This article was originally written as an assignment for my degree.]
Mandy is a film split in two.
FuBball Wie Noch Nie X MOGWAI
On 12th September 1970, Hullmuth Costard took a load of cameras to Old Trafford and filmed George Best playing football against Coventry City. The final film, ‘Fußball Wie Noch Nie’ was released in 1971, its status as a document to the best footballer to never play a World Cup only being a footnote.
A footnote I discovered in 2006, with the release of ‘Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait’, my hunt for this film began. A hunt which ended in 2020. This is my edit of the film.

Damn, everything just sucks. Killing time. Trying not to lose my sanity.
With that in mind, inspired by one Max Rushden and his XI, I asked people I know for thier All-Time XI’s.
Manager, 6 substitutions and formation is free to choose.
The results were…… interesting.
