Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I thought Michel Gondry was gonna make a superhero movie that didn’t look like every other damn superhero movie. Wasn’t that the idea? Or did Columbia get cold feet at the last minute when they suddenly realized they’d hired a weird-ass French arthouse director and strongarmed him … more…
I don’t watch Jimmy Kimmel Live, but I’m wildly intrigued by the episode that aired last night (which I only just heard about this morning).

With a musical legacy spanning decades, he was without doubt one of the world s most influential musicians and a true legend … more…
If the ongoing meltdown of Michael Douglas’s obnoxious asshole in a three-quarter-life crisis is your idea of a good time, have at it.
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… It just drives me crazy that this is relegated to arthouses and will be seen by so few people. Crap like Jonah Hex — which everyone involved knew was crap before it even started shooting — opens on thousands of screens. But a film like this one … more…
Reader Feh in comments following my review of Killers asks: MaryAnn, do you have any insight into the ripoff pattern? Why do Hollywood movies tend to come out in pairs? Killers/Knight & Day, Abyss/Leviathan, Deep Impact/Armageddon. Feh then links to a story titled “11 Identical Movies Released at the Same Time” — which dates back … more…
