Welcome to rebirth of the Carnival of Cinema, a bi-weekly display of the best in film. Every other week we will have links to movie reviews, film commentary and industry advice submitted from around the world.

The last Carnival was in 2008. Sometimes a guy needs to take a year off.

Getting us back into shape Conan Stevens.

This week Conan offers us a whole bunch of behind the scenes info. on Bangkok Adrenaline, a film he wrote. Bangkok Adrenaline has recently been released on DVD in the U.K.

Conan isn't one to sit still. Sure, his movie is out on DVD but why should that slow him down. Here is the synopsis for his latest movie; currently looking for funding. Go to 7FT STUNT ACTOR CONAN STEVENS for more on getting involved.


Next up we have THE CRITICAL CRITIC'S Vaprak review of Iron Man 2. "With so many conflicts that require different resolutions, Iron Man 2 had promise going for it. Then..."

Why would I cut this off? Because it would spoil the review. Click on the link to find out more.


Third in line this week is SR from THE MOVIE BLOG. This week SR lists 8 Things I don't like in Hollywood Movies.


I don't suppose one of the 8 things is vampires that sparkle?

Hey, speaking of the mincing undead...

Wanna see the new Twilight Eclipse trailer? Toni of WIFELY STEPS has the goods.


Sticking with the adaptations, Casey Markee from BOARDING SCHOOL WIZARD BLOG lists "15 Fictional Boarding Schools We Wish Were Real!"


Hey remember Jan Svankmajer's adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, Neco z Alenky? Yeah, me neither but hey Steve has. Go to FLICK FREAK to read his review.


If teen vampires and wizards or little girls on a drug freak out aren't your thing, than maybe Edward Phillips has a list of the 20 Best Picture Films That Were Even Better Books. Click over to ONLINE UNIVERSITIES for more.


Next, Mike Ross of STAR COSTUMES BLOG offers what he calls "the most wicked moms in film history. In proving the psychopath doesn’t fall far from the tree, these bad mamma jammas have provided us with some of the more memorable roles in cinema history."

I couldn't have said it better. So I didn't


Finally, we have NO FILM SCHOOL'S Ryan Koo. He ends out carnival this week by offering you The DSLR Cinematography Guide.
