• Zodiac Isn’t Sure Who The Real Killer Is, But David Fincher Might Be | CineFix Top 100

  “He gave himself a name…” The CineFix Top 100 is back… Kinda! It’s not quite season 4, but Clint and Cal couldn’t wait. We wanted to spend a few episodes with the extended CineFix family before diving back into a regular season, and to start, we’ve got ‘My Best Shots’ pioneer, IGN UK’s Simon Cardy. In addition to having a RIDICULOUS Top 250 of his own on Letterboxd, he’s bringing one of his all time favorites to the Top 100 this week, David Fincher’s true crime masterpiece Zodiac. Clint, Cal and Cardy talk about the film’s incredible wide shots, how hairy Jake Gyllenhaal’s knuckles may or may not be and why Cardy refuses to say who the real Zodiac killer is. Meanwhile, Dan’s Algorithm is drunk on Aqua Velva, claiming to be a handwriting expert. Eat smart with Factor.

• Die Hard Is The Sequel To The Book Seven Samurai Wrote On Action | CineFix Top 100

  Die Hard landed in 1988 among a murderer’s row of great movies and came out of it as perhaps the most iconic of them all. It was a coming out party for Bruce Willis the action star and Alan Rickman the villain and invented a whole new sub-genre of bottle episode action cinema. Clint, Cal and Alex discuss how John McTiernan learned all the right things from Akira Kurosawa action, why the movie doesn’t matter if it isn’t about marriage and how Alex can’t keep holding her grudge against the movie. Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm doesn’t ever want to hear about the Die Hard / Christmas movie debate again...

• Planet of the Apes HAD to Star a Big Old Jerk | CineFix Top 100

  Planet of the Apes was a franchise spawning phenomenon in the late 60s. Living in the center of the sci fi spectrum, it wore its b-movie camp on its sleeve right next to relevant social commentary. With Charlton Heston playing opposite some revolutionary make up effects, off a script by Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling and a former HUAC blacklist-er, Planet of the Apes took everyone by surprise. Clint, Alex and CineFix’s senior Apes Correspondent Scott Collura talk about the impossibility of watching this movie in proper context, the genius and often overlooked score, how The Simpsons lovingly spoils classic film and creative new ways to pronounce Orangutan. Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm hates every ape it sees, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee...

• The Truman Show Makes You Its Main Character (And You Might Be The Villain) | CineFix Top 100

  There was not a faster rising star in the mid 90s than Jim Carrey. After an 18 month window that gave us Ave Ventura: Pet Detective, Dumb and Dumber, The Mask and Batman Forever, it was a little surprising to see him take a more dramatic role in Peter Weir’s The Truman Show. The story of Truman Burbank slowly discovering that he’s the unwitting star of a lifelong reality TV show marked a real turning point in his career. Clint, Cal and Alex talk about the overlooked greatness of key grips, how the film was both ahead of its time AND very of its time and how staggeringly good Laura Linney is. Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm says there’s no more truth out there than in the world it created for us...

• The Dark Knight’s Best Line of Dialogue Is Coming True | CineFix Top 100

  “You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” The Dark Knight landed in the middle of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy like an escaped Arkham inmate with the superpower to create prestige cinema in a world of comic book. The middle act of a three part re-telling of Bruce Wayne’s origins as the caped crusader find him squaring off against the Joker in a battle for nothing less than the soul of Gotham. Clint, Cal and Alex discuss Heath Ledger (of course), the breathless pace of the editing (that sometimes works against the movie) and whether or not The Dark Knight’s legacy has been tarnished by the superhero bubble we’re currently in the midst of. Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm wonders if you want to know how it got these scars...
