Take a break from work: watch a trailer… “Gimme back my son!” Oh, wait, that was a different movie. Anyway: Jon Hamm and Josh Lucas in the same movie? And they’re both all, like, angsty and shit? OMG! Depending on how good this is, it could be the beginnng of what I predicted, that thing … more…
Of course we’ve all been hearing about Kevin Smith’s misadventures with Southwest Airlines, but I wasn’t sure that there was much to say about it beyond what Smith has already said. In my leftover links this past weekend, I pointed you to Smith’s own account of the affair, in which he explains why he’s so … more…
…and because it’s my blog, and I can post what I like: (I actually kinda like Robert Pattinson. Or I at least pity him. Guys like it when you pity them, right? He’s not a great actor or anything, but I don’t think he deserves or even wants what he’s gotten.) Thanks to my pal … more…
Bill Nighy and Richard Curtis collaborated on a little film explaining why taking a few pennies from millionaires — who wouldn’t even notice! — in order to help the planet would be a good thing. Because it just sounds like such a horrible idea! Pretty brilliant move, calling it the Robin Hood Tax. Who doesn’t … more…

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… This looks beautiful. I can’t wait to see it. Also: Some aspects of Celtic mythology remain woefully unexplored in pop culture. I’m happy to see that righted, even if only a little. The Secret of Kells opens in limited release in Canada on February 26, and in … more…
This totally proves what that one guy was saying about Stanley Kubrick faking the moon landings! Was Hitler trying to build a secret weapon that would move like a flying saucer and decimate Allied bombing fleets over Germany? We know that Nazi scientists were experimenting with flying wings as well as building the first ballistic … more…
Surely I am not the only dork who, upon seeing a picture of the new observation module astronauts just installed on the International Space Station, thought, “Holy crap, they turned the ISS into a TIE fighter!” And I thought that was pretty nerdy. But it’s not much compared to the lengths some film geeks will … more…
Looks like Ethan Hawke got a promotion from his Los Angeles Training Day and a crosscountry transfer to serve with Brooklyn’s Finest (opens in the U.S. and Canada on March 5; no U.K. release date has been announced). Looks intense… And then there’s Cop Out (opens in the U.S. and Canada on February 26, and … more…
Another geek subculture I am either not cool enough or too cool to embrace: What I want to know is this: Who certifies that all those electric instruments and amps and such are steam powered? Cuz what would Jules Verne think if they weren’t? Seriously, though: Abney Park’s Web site is gorgeous…
