Charming little animated film, I give this the rundown and tell you whether it&#8217;s worth watching. Off to the Oscars after that, with <em>Amadeus<\/em> coming in for scrutiny. Was it deserving of the Best Picture gong for &#8217;84? You&#8217;ll have to read on to find out. Plus, the scarily creepy <em>Vacancy<\/em> gets a run, making sure you don&#8217;t look at seedy, run-down motels the same way again.<\/p>\n<p>Not a lot on offer this week, although there&#8217;s a very good reason for that.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I wanted to take a little time to mention some big stuff coming up here at the site! <em>Next<\/em> week, we commence Worst Film Week, an entire week devoted to the worst films of all time. There may be some surprises&#8230;. but then again, some you may guess. It&#8217;s six days of utter crud here at <em>fernbyfilms.com<\/em>! I have asked our regular contributors, as well as a couple of special guests, to come up with the films they consider to be the worst films ever seen. Let&#8217;s see if your choices match ours!<\/p>\n<p>Then, the week after<em> that<\/em>, we release a new 4 part series on film, DVD &amp; high definition technology that&#8217;s been months in the making! <strong>Widescreen &#8211; Can\u00a0I Get A Cream To Make It Go Away?<\/strong> It will hopefully answer some of the more common questions about all things film, DVD, home theater and everything to do with movies! We take a look at the misconception of aspect ratios, the latest in high definition technology, what to look for when purchasing your new home theater, and some other advice to boot.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to give you some advance warning about October. No, it&#8217;s nothing bad, in fact, we reckon you&#8217;ll enjoy it! Fernby Films has been working hard behind the scenes to delve into the archives to present\u00a0some early films and short subjects you may not have seen for a while, if ever. From <em>Hello Annabel<\/em>, to <em>Back To The Stix<\/em>, all your FF favourites (and some you may not have seen) will soon make an appearance on this site. Presented in easy to watch segments, <em>Hello Annabel<\/em> will make its web debut in October, right here at <em>fernbyfilms.com<\/em>. For those who haven&#8217;t seen it, or those who haven&#8217;t seen it since it debuted in 2001, this will be your only chance to reminisce with us as we go back in time to Fernby Films early days.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this major presentation will kick off a year long effort to bring you all of Fernby Films\u00a0stuff on this website, including <em>Alien IV<\/em> (yes, that one) as well as the original <em>Thrash Bus<\/em>, and all your favourite FF projects. Still, there&#8217;ll be more information on this later next month. It&#8217;s going to be huge!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, keep your nights free, because there&#8217;s plenty coming up here at <em>fernbyfilms.com<\/em>! We hope you enjoy it!<\/p>\n<p>Rodney T &#8211; Director, Fernby Films.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 This weeks reviews are a mixed bunch.
