Pan’s Labyrinth makes us feel warm all over, that’s a fact. I believe Devin is seeing Guillermo del Toro’s flick this week and he’ll either be one of the initiated lovers of the movie or he’ll be the worst person in the world. Unless you already think he’s the worst thing in the world. Then … Continue reading
As we get closer to the ultra-lame limited theatrical release of John Gulager’s Feast, a trailer has hit the web, and it’s gooey, gory and good. You probably remember that this is the film that was made on the last season of Project Greenlight and has been sitting on a shelf for a couple of … Continue reading
I never thought that I would stand for another Halloween DVD dip (what would this be, the Decalogue Dip?), but it turns out that sometimes unforeseen circumstances can lead to you buying a movie yet again and being happy about it. In this case it’s because of a truly historic find – “pretty much all … Continue reading
Ann Coulter has demanded that a great scene where she gets her skinny ass handed to her be cut from the documentary Al Franken: God Spoke. The film, which follows Franken’s book tour for Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right, his involvement in liberal radio … Continue reading

Richard Kelly’s sprawling sci-fi/action epic, Southland Tales, premiered at Cannes … Continue reading
It’s no secret that Michael Bay’s Transformers is being seen by Paramount and friends as the opening salvo in the next big film franchise. So what’s next? No one’s making any sure plans until this film is released and the box office numbers come out (although judging by what I saw, what I have heard, … Continue reading
Beerfest is the most fun I’ve had in a theater since your mom blew me during a showing of White Squall, but still people did not flock to the theaters as they ought to have. Maybe it’s because they’re lazy. Maybe it’s because they had to prepare for their own school season. Maybe it’s because … Continue reading
You know that thing in cartoons where someone sees something unbelievable and they blink a couple of times and rub their eyes? That’s what I had to do when I read that not only was there going to be a movie made about the 1999 Seattle anti-WTO protests-turned-riots, but that Charlize Theron would star in … Continue reading
Downtown LA is under attack by illegal aliens. No, not the ones that do your lawn but giant robot ones who shapeshift into vehicles and really hate humans. At least the evil ones, known as Decepticons, do. Michael Bay’s live action Transformers movie was shooting this weekend on Broadway and 9th, an area of LA … Continue reading
