A lot of critics seem to be putting out their Best of Year (so far) lists, so we’ve decided to do the same. But, rather than list films guaranteed to garner critical acclaim (and respect of our academic elitist peers), we’re choosing those we would honestly watch more than once.
Best films (Chris):
Shinobi: Heart Under Blade
So [...]
On Monday, Kris Kobayashi decided to leave dreamlogic.net for good. While she will be missed, she will be replaced by Kris Kobayashi-Nelson, a wonderful addition to the established caliber that is dreamlogic. We expect good things from her and she hopes to live up to the high standards and expectations of our readers.
In other words, [...]
A-yeup. Valentine’s Day is here, and that means romance flicks. But we at Dreamlogic aren’t that into chick flick nonsense or simplistic Hollywood flings.
With that in mind, here are some films with romance that Kris and Chris approve of.
Punch Drunk Love
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Splendor
He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
Closer
40 Days and 40 [...]
I don’t know what it was, but 2005 was a pathetic year at the boxoffice. So much crap was shoveled into the cineplexes we couldn’t even come up with a top 10 best of the year. Even most critically acclaimed films were still derivative of such tried and true formulas that nothing truly new was [...]
Let me remind you that Yakusho Koji (Tampopo, Charisma, Memoirs of a Geisha) is much more than a pair of walking cheekbones with a ‘fro. He possesses the ability to simultaneously emote strength and warmth, intelligence and naïveté, charming fragility with weight-of-the-world endurance. This is why he’s perfect in the role of Michio [...]
This is Brett Sullivan’s very first interview on his upcoming project, Hush. Kris and I got to sit down with the director of Ginger Snaps: Unleashed, and ask a few questions. Brett is an extremely busy man, so we only had time for a few questions, but we did get some quality short-essay [...]
Happy Halloween from Chris and Kris!
It’s that time of the year again for spookity scareathons and time to share our top 13 horror flicks. These may not be the most well-known or critically lauded horror and suspense films, but they definitely deserve to be on the top of our lists. A few aren’t [...]

DO NOT MISS THIS ONE
For such a small word, WAR imbibes and evokes the presence of fear, destruction, and humility. But does it hold any connotations with the word humanity? Americans as a nation wholeheartedly supported and slaved for WWI, turned a deaf ear on the Korean War, then split on the controversial Vietnam [...]
SPACE KITTY BLASTS THROUGH SOME THICK NOGGINS “Possibly Maybe” –one of my favourite Bjork tunes and the best way to describe the experience of this incredible flick. Subtly referencing (possibly) everything from The Little Prince, Phillip K. Dick and Roman mythology, Masons and mind control, to Itchy and Scratchy, Happy Tree Friends, 50s TV Japanimation [...]
SHE SAID: Ce n’est pas une école. Columbine is a subject I sometimes wish would just go away. Not because it was a tragedy, but because the media never handles situations of that magnitude truthfully. (i.e.: Iraq~ Jessica Lynch). Don’t you remember High School? Sure it was fun, but it wasn’t all hunky-dory and [...]
