Matinee

Matinee is absolutely wonderful. In fact, I remember the reaction at the UK press show - there was more or less unanimous agreement that it would get sensational reviews (well, duh) and that hardly anyone would go to see it, since it was so clearly aimed at 1950s film nostalgists rather than the teenage audience the producers presumably expected. It's hard to think of another early 1990s American film that gave me so much sheer pleasure - though Gremlins 2 comes close.

One of the many things I love about it is that Dante, rather like Tim Burton a year or so later with the not dissimilar Ed Wood, absolutely respects his sources - he said in an interview that he was most insistent that the special effects in Mant ("Half Man! Half Ant! All Terror!") be pretty good by early 1960s standards, as he felt that the John Goodman character would have poured most of his budget into making them state of the (then) art. It's all too easy to poke fun at the alleged naivete of our forefathers, but Dante never once makes that mistake, and his film is all the richer for it.

I was a massive Dante fan from the moment I sneaked into The Howling underage, and spent the 1980s catching up on earlier work like Hollywood Boulevard and Piranha while watching everything that came out. That said, I've rather lost touch with him since seeing the massively underrated Small Soldiers on its original release - what have I missed?

Joe Dante

Not sure if this belongs in this section, feel free to move it accordingly if not.

So I'm curious... what do people on this forum think of Joe Dante?

Personally, I think he may be one of the more under-appreciated modern auteurs, a director who manages to sustain a nice juggling act of indulging in pop-culture archetypes and subverting them within the same scope. There's a true love of genre and old Hollywood that runs through the entirety of his work (Scorsese and De Palma do as well, and also share with Dante an encyclopedic knowledge of film and culture, American and beyond), but I think sometimes people find his work too sentimental (I'm thinking primarily of the first Gremlins, Explorers, and Innerspace, films I hold really dear). I think he's often mistaken for a Spielberg lackey a la Zemeckis. Personally, I think he's a far more consistent and inventive director than Spielberg, whose films (at least lately) carry such a strong whiff of 'importance' that it can be suffocating.

There's always a moment, and its often very easy to spot, when his movies just go completely off-the-wall and enter the realm of something, for lack of a better word, magical. That's something only certain directors can do consistently, very few even manage to do it once.

Of course, that's a personal reaction. I wouldn't be surprised if some on here detested his films, or at least ignored them.

Don't wanna write all my thoughts in a single post, hopefully we can get some kinda dialogue going.
