In this first Jettisode (Jettisode 18!) of 2010, Jett Garner gives us his take on the Hughes Brothers’ film, Book of Eli, starring Denzel Washington and Gary Oldman. Do we have a winner or is it a look at things to come in 2010?
Jett also looks back at 2009 and some of the recent “new classics” like The Hurt Locker and asks the question if they match up to the “old classics” like The Godfather or Gladiator. Is the current cream of the crop gonna stay at the top or sink away into cinema history?

In the last Jettisode (Jettisode 16), Jett stirred up a bit of controversy due to his honesty regarding padding the resume. Every industry in every business you’ll find that people pad resumes. Hell, we do it on our college applications don’t we?
Anyway, the greatest thing about episode 16 was that it started some open and civil dialogue in the comments section. Love to see more of it in the future!
And from the ashes of the the last Jettisode births Jettisode 17, where Jett Garner responds to Short Film Texas community member Kathy Greenup and her dilemma regarding sending her high school graduate daughter off to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career.
Are there alternatives to LA? What cities offer a serious actor more opportunity than Los Angeles?

Jettisode 16 – Tips On Padding Your Acting Resume
I wonder what's on his resume?
In Jettisode 16, Actor / Director Jett Garner discusses the finer art of padding one’s acting resume.
Having “hired” said actor I need to go back and look at that resume he gave us so many years ago and see what fictional works of acting he put down. I’m sure there are some classics. Regardless of how you look at it, he got the job and excelled in his role.
Could a little resume padding help you?
Listen and learn.

Last week, Austin Actor/Director Jett Garner pleaded for viewer’s to leave respectful and constructive responses and comments to the films shown on ShortFilmTexas. What we got instead was a very unnecessarily crude and vicious email sent to ShortFilmTexas in regards to the latest episode of the Dallas, Texas web series “Dallywood.”
In Jettisode 15(!!) Jett responds to this delightful old man’s email and then puts in his 3 cents regarding another aging Hollywood old-timer, Roman Polanski and his recent arrest.

In Jettisode 13, Austin, Texas Actor / Director Jett Garner plays catch-up with the box office films that have hit or miss and gets some strong feelings off his chest concerning Megan Fox, Kanye West and the sad state of celebrity in Hollywood. He also comes up with a possible sequel idea for Jennifer’s Body starring one Miss Meryl Streep in Meryl’s Body.
It’s all about class in Jettisode 13. Sit back. Pull up a chair and enjoy the “lunatic ravings of the criminal mind.”

While researching upcoming films to review for future “Jettisodes,” Jett Garner explores the legends, myths and what if’s of the origins behind epic disaster master filmmaker Roland Emmerich’s upcoming feature film 2012. The film stars John Cusack and Amanda Peet caught in an adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world.
It’s not so much the film itself that catches Jett’s attention but the prospect of survival preparedness if a natural or unnatural disaster were to actually occur. Do you know how to start a fire? Build a shelter for your family? Hunt and skin an animal? Purify water for drinking?
Welcome to Jettisode 2012 (officially #11). Prepare for the end times…while the good times roll. (you damn dirty apes!)

In the first year of the German occupation of France, Shosanna Dreyfus (Melanie Laurent) witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa. Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema.
Meanwhile, somewhere else in Europe, lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) organizes a group of Jewish American soldiers to perform swift, shocking acts of retribution. Later known to their enemy as “the basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) on a mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquis, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own….
Thus the tale of Quentin Tarantino’s INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS is born.
In Jettisode 10, Jett Garner had a chance to take in a screening of Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds for ShortFilmTexas and is here to spew forth his review of the film. Does Tarantino have a hit on his hands? Does Brad Pitt steal the show? Actung people!
