Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from a TV show on DVD. Guess the TV show — you don’t need to guess the episode, just the show. And if you assume it’s something I’ve said I’m watching or said I like, you’re not necessarily on the right track.
How else are we supposed to interpret “J.K. Rowling Won’t Write More Harry Potter Books to ‘Reward’ Daniel Radcliffe”? Oh, wait…
Behold the Generic Fantasy Movie Trailer! What’s the movie about? Who knows? Who cares? It’s got dragons and talking mice and lions who can do magic and minotaurs with working-class accents and cute kids having adventures and some more dragons. And it’s in 3D!
With Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio, Baz Luhrmann onboard at this point, is it worth giving this movie a chance, at least until we start seeing terrible trailers? Or should some novels simply be written off as unfilmmable?
I’m almost entirely sure that no one who has not read The Deathly Hallows will be able to grasp what’s going on. The film is damn nigh impenetrable without the background of the novel, and all the previous novels in the series. It was almost impenetrable to me, who has read all the books, at least on an emotional level.
Imagine, if you can, a time when paper towels did not exist, and had to be invented, and then sold to harried housewives with misbehaving dogs and children…
Someone has thought a lot about how the Doctor’s alignment varies from persona to persona. Yes, one of them is chaotic evil…
How do you manage child care while doing all the footwork required to plan your wife’s prison break? It sounds ridiculous, and it should be ridiculous up on the screen. But Russell Crowe makes it work in ways that far exceed any expectations we should honestly have for such a preposterous potboiler of a concept.
Bored rich guy is bored with his privileged life… until a little girl makes it all better. Hoorah!
Nothing against Ryan Reynolds, but can any one man be the Sexiest Man Alive? And if this can be, wouldn’t the editors of People have to at least meet all three billion or so men on the planet before coming to a conclusion that genuinely reflects all men alive?
