My Ten Worst for 2005My Top Fifteen for 2004 I learned a lot about the movies this year. I saw over 150 of them in theaters, so I would hope I came out of that with something more than hemorrhoids. One of the things I learned about was the way movies aren’t stationary things. You … Continue reading

I walked into this interview with one goal – say ‘twat’ to Pierce Brosnan. It’s a low goal, sure, but every interview needs its focus. ‘Twat’ didn’t just come out of nowhere.

What the fuck is wrong with the Internets? I know it’s a slow week for movie news – it’ll be slow until the new year – but that’s no excuse for a bunch of sites to start running fake news. The item in question says that Michael J Fox told Moviehole that he is in … Continue reading
I haven’t been reading Gawker and Defamer as regularly as I should (they’re two of the best sites out there), and so I missed this little tidbit – Brett Ratner has sent out his holiday cards, which features him and the cast of X3. This is news for two reasons: The card gives us a … Continue reading
