S03E09 - Modern B&W

Published: June 9, 2019, 11 a.m.

This week’s theme is modern-made films that have been converted into black and white. We start with Frank Darabont's third Stephen King adaptation The Mist (2007) with its double fuck-you ending. Next up is George Miller’s distillation of the Mad Max trilogy into Mad Max: Fury Road - Black & Chrome (2015), a film with a lot to say between the engine noises and explosions. We finish with the true swansong of the X-Men cinematic franchise: James Mangold’s Logan Noir (2017), a superhero western about a legend getting old in their own lifetime. Also: Steven Soderbergh’s Raiders of the Lost Ark. Justice for Barb. Star wormwood - Chernobyl (2019). Michelle Forbes. No time to explain! Get in the car! M-m-m-monster Kill! Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Diglett. We swap blood types. Old Man Logan. Bill Sienkiewicz. SPOILER for The Wolverine (2013) about 75m in. Professor Xavier is a Jerk. Hudson Hawk (1991). We play a game of “They come in colors”
