Take a break from work: watch a trailer… So, I’ve generally been unable to post trailers for Disney movies because they always have embedding disabled (I’ve written before about the mysteriousness of studios refusing to let Web site owners give them free advertising.) Which is why I hadn’t posted a trailer yet for Alice in … more…

Gary Coleman, leading the … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… And then watch this one: Same movie… but you might not guess it from these two trailers. The first one makes this look like it’s akin to a cozy British mystery you might find on PBS: sure, there’s sex and murder, but it hasn’t been glamorized and … more…
Today’s question comes from reader doa766: Why are Avatar and District 9 getting so much critical and awards recognition now when neither Aliens or Blade Runner got any when they were released? is it because highbrow, art or oscar bait movies have decreased in quality? is it because of a generational and average age change … more…
(Sometimes related to entertainment. Sometimes not. Always stupid.)
