The fests keep playing, which would seem to be where all the interesting movies are at, but nowadays October is just a likely to house a winner as loser. But more on that in a minute.DON’T CALL IT A COMEBACKIsn’t it funny how the Farrelly brothers spent ten years pissing away their good will? After … Continue reading
The new Iron Man teaser poster just looks like a Transformers 2 poster. It’s like someone at Paramount is just recycling ideas – did the design guy really want to get home early and beat all the traffic on the highway? I would like to donate a concept to Paramount, for free: A black poster. … Continue reading
Studios have often been willing to shift release dates for films that might comment too directly or crassly on current events, but I can’t remember an example of a picture being delayed because it could get several of its lead actors killed. (Not that directors haven’t been killed for the content of their films before: … Continue reading
The first trailer for Sweeney Todd, Tim Burton’s adaptation of Kevin Smith’s favorite musical, is here, and it does its damnedest to hide the fact that it’s a musical. You only get a hint of singing, and that’s in a sequence that appears so highly stylized that many people might think it’s a dream or … Continue reading

Not that I’m exactly concerned about purity when a sorta-indie jumps up to the majors, as Aardman Animation did with Dreamworks, but Chicken Run nearly put me off my feed with respect to the animation house, and I was afraid that … Continue reading
There’s something automatically humbling about riding public transportation in Los Angeles. Your personhood and independence in this town is very closely tied to your vehicle ownership, which means you get a lot of weird looks from people in passing cars when you’re standing at the bus stop. There’s a PSA campaign on the Los Angeles … Continue reading
I’d originally thought that Michael Clayton was going to be one of those movies that critics and audiences split on. It’s got a great big payoff of the sort that an adult audience just loves, but it’s also got a couple of weaknesses I’d figured would keep writers (as seen in Devin’s review) from buying … Continue reading
I’ve been waiting for a good, creepy game for my little DS. Resident Evil didn’t exactly fit the bill (I’ll be damned if I’d buy that game for the 6th time or whatever it was) and I was a little worried that the underpowered system couldn’t fit the visuals to creep us out. I was … Continue reading
