MORGAN SPURLOCK’S WAR ON REPUBLICANS

Morgan Spurlock, whose great film Supersize Me drew the ire of the kind of soulless assholes who defend nutrition-free megacorps like McDonalds, and which actually led to a real change in the world, is coming back to cinemas with a new documentary, The Republican War On Science. The documentary will be based on Chris Mooney’s … Continue reading

YOURS AND MAYAN

So, that Mel Gibson, he’s pretty much totally nuts now, huh?  Maybe you’ve seen him with that wacky Bin Laden beard, like he’s trying to channel the skills of all his celebrated filmmaker peers through facial follicles. Maybe you saw his last directorial effort, where Jesus gets physically brutalized for half the running time. Or … Continue reading

THE WORST OF 2005

For the first half of 2005 I was pretty convinced we were seeing a banner year for crapola. Thankfully the second half of the year came to the rescue, but 2005 still saw a plethora of garbage released into theaters. Picking the ten worst of these was tough – first of all you have to … Continue reading

BRUNO’S RADIO REVENGE

Continuing the bleak streak he’s been following with Sin City, Hostage and The Whole Ten Yards, Bruce Willis is keeping things grim with his latest project, a dark drama called Morgan’s Summit.

T FOR TRAILER

V For Vendetta played this past weekend at Aint It Cool’s Butt-Numb-A-Thon and it was a huge hit. Best film of the year, some people said. Fuck those people. OK, that’s jealousy talking. Unfuck those people. I just can’t wait to see this movie, and now that the trailer is here, I can’t wait even … Continue reading

MUTANT HEAD COLLECTION

If you caught the rather busy trailer for X-Men 3 (RIGHT HERE), you probably noticed there are approximately 372 characters this time around, several of which are new to the franchise (or recast from previous incarnations). If you want a better look at that extensive cast, our Down Under buddy (ahem) Garth Franklin at Dark … Continue reading
