SPEED (1994, dir. Jan DeBont)
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Apparently today is International Godzilla Day, so here’s my sleek version from the unmade 1990’s Sony/Jan deBont version. Proud of this one.

I'd have to go back and look at individual stories. I know Jan DeBont - superb cinematographer - was anecdotally a pain in the ass when he became a director.

I am old enough (and was dumb enough) to see the Jan DeBont remake of "The Haunting" in the theater. I'm still mad about it.

I went to the Metrograph for the first time and went to a double feature: 1994's Speed, dir. Jan DeBont and 1979's Babylon XX, a Soviet-era Ukrainian movie directed by actor Ivan Mykolaichuk. What do these movies have in common? I'll tell you: nothing.

This film is so boringly shot. Where is the flair of Jan DeBont?

Create your own double feature.
It's the Jan DeBont back-to-back sense-attack that'll leave you sock-free and your rafters in tatters! Bring some Haribo, your energy drink of choice, and pop the plugs in to stop your brain from dribbling out your ears! Yeah boieeee!

This looks like what they would've done to Ghiddy if TriStar got their way with the DeBont film.

He did an okay job. But, man. DeBont knew how to light, and how to get the best from his lenses.

Oh, à ce niveau là, je ne suis pas sûr que ce soit si différent au fond des Renny Harlin, Jan DeBont, Roger Donaldson, Peter McDonald, Breck Eisner ou encore Kevin Reynolds.

This technique is normally used to switch from a stunt performer to the actual actor in the same shot, but Speed’s director Jan DeBont does it with city buses. It’s great filmmaking.
