Film Forum is screening Wild Style through next Thursday, in honor of its 25th anniversary. The '83 graffiti classic features such old school hip hop pioneers as Fab Five Freddy, Grandmaster Flash, Grand Wizard Theodore, Busy Bee, Cold Crush, and Rock Steady Crew. Reviewing it for the Times, A.O. Scott writes: "Wild Style remains, to borrow a term from the rap lexicon, permanently fresh. In capturing the Hip Hop aesthetic at an early point of ferment and vigor, Ahearn's film was able to intuit what Hip Hop would become."
It's a big weekend at movie theaters—click through the gallery to see what's opening.






Saw Quantum of Solace last night. SOOOOOOOO GOOD!
good or bad, make up your own decision. casino royale cemented daniel craig's place as the only bond. forget connery- have you seen those laughable films recently? he can't punch his way out of a paper bag. those scripts were written by a bunch of idiots- c'mon- goldfinger...how corny was that!!!
austin powers showed us just how stupid most of the old bond movies were. daniel craig rocks.
If you've ever read any of Fleming's books, or Markham's Colonel Sun (Amis) then you know Craig is the best Bond ever. Lazenby was pretty good, but Craig is the best.
Wasn't there already an environmental badguy? Walken was sort of, right? And the stupid World is not Enough with media tycoons... oy!
Read Swarup's "Q&A" the novel on which Slumdog Millionaire is based.

New bond sucks. All dark and serious. Daniel Craig is the new Timothy Dalton.
