Just this morning I saw an incredible movie called Save the Green Planet. It’s a Korean film from 2003 that’s only now getting an American release, and it’s stunning and bizarre and funny and sad and gory and weird.

They had another scoop that was much less correct: “It won’t be a female Angel. I don’t … Continue reading
The end of the Lord of the Rings films has left a hole in my year-end moviegoing experience. I’m hoping that the upcoming Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe can help plug that hole to an extent. Now the folks at Narnia Fan have gotten a hold of an advertisement for … Continue reading

I think that at this point it’s pretty common knowledge that I am getting positively tumescent with excitement about the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy movie coming on April 29th. I spent about an hour playing on the website for the film today (http://hitchhikers.movies.go.com/), just giddy with excitement. So when I tell you that the … Continue reading
