Crime Fiction Lover: The Site for Diehard Crime and Thriller Fans posted their choices for The 20 Greatest Classic Crime Movies of All Time.
I’ve seen 14 of their 20. And while I don’t think their list is the best [No LA Confidential? The Big Heat? Carlito’s Way?], it did give me six more crime films to seek out.
The Playlist had an interview with David [Gone Girl; Se7en; Fight Club; Zodiac] but the link is dead so I added the interview below for your pleasure. – Craig, 2021
American Heist stars Adrien Brody, Hayden Christensen, and Jordana Brewster. The trailer below feels like another one of those seen-the-trailer-seen-the-movie previews.
I am so ready for February 8, 2015.
The poster and trailer to Poker Night do their job well enough to make me want to know more.
Dennis Culver created these cool Breaking Bad character drawings.
Since posting that I am looking forward to Dynamite’s new Shaft comic series people keep asking me if I think Shaft is back.
After seeing Comic Alliance’s interview with Shaft scribe David Walker and preview interior art from Bilquis Evely …
Yeah, I’m thinkin’ John Shaft is back.
[Apologies to John Wick.]
How about a teaser for one of the best shows on tv? Justified!!
Polar: Came from the Cold by Victor Santos began life as a free online web comic. Dark Horse later published Polar: Came from the Cold as a 160 page hardback.
Constantin Film and Dark Horse Entertainment announced this week that they plan to bring Santos’ tale of a retired assassin who finds he and his child the target of assassins to the big screen. I plan to keep tabs on this one!

Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips are taking Criminal back to Image Comics and they’re kicking off the move with a 48 page one shot…
It’s 1976, and Teeg Lawless is doing 30 days in county jail with a price on his head; his only safe company from the savagery: a beat-up old comic magazine his dead cellmate left behind. It’s CRIMINAL like you’ve never seen it before, with a comic within the comic and all those slick ‘70s thrills!

The poster for We Gotta Get Out of This Place features are by Sean Phillips!
Since the poster was created the name of the movie title has changed to Bad Turn Worse which I like better. As for the trailer, I’m diggin’ it and Bad Turn Worse is now on my “must see” list.
I’m looking forward to Better Call Saul the spin-off from Breaking Bad. According to the AMC site….
The series is set six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and, often, against Jimmy, is “fixer” Mike Ehrmantraut, a beloved character introduced in ‘Breaking Bad.’ The series will track Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “Criminal lawyer.” The series’ tone is dramatic, woven with dark humor.

That amazing drawing of Sly as Jack Carter was created by artist extrodinaire, Hoyt Silva. I met Hoyt at Heroes Con and set up the take home commission.
Hoyt, in addition to being an amazing artist, has great communication and packages the art securely. I highly recommend Hoyt to all sketch collectors! – Craig
