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…

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Sad pathetic old men are so adorable, aren’t they? Solitary Man is now playing in the U.S. and Canada; no U.K. release date has been announced.
Made of spoilers. Don’t read until you’ve seen the episode.
Take a look back at an old trailer… Knight and Day made me think, I want to see ‘Romancing the Stone’ again. (The comparison was not favorable to K&D.) This is probably all I’ll have time for for a while. Romancing the Stone is available on DVD in Region 1 from Amazon.com and from Amazon.ca … more…
Every week my browser gets cluttered up with tabs for stuff that I stumble across and figure I might be able to use as a Question of the Day or a WTF Thought for the Day or grist for some other post. And inevitably, I end the week with most of that material unused. But … more…
