Take a break from work: watch a movie trailer… His message is righteous? His love is everlasting? His gift is life? I didn’t think the Saw franchise could get any more revolting, but it has, in just the marketing of it. Bravo! Saw V opens today, without benefit of critics screening, in the U.S. and … more…
Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights. But hey: one guess per comment — no fair hogging all the guesses.
Another weekend is upon us, and I never covered last weekend’s U.K. box office. Ack! Here’s how things played out in the U.K. last weekend: 1. Burn After Reading: £2 million (NEW) 2. Eagle Eye: £1.1 million (NEW) 3. Igor: £1 million (NEW) 4. The House Bunny: £.66 million (dropping 27% in its 2nd week) … more…
Apparently I’m not enough of a Trekkie to have realized that there’s been a thing between William Shatner and George Takei all these years.

All these all-singing, all-dancing high-schoolers are downright adorable, and without being annoying about it, either…
Take a break from work: watch a movie trailer… When I talk about geek stuff going serious, this is the kind of thing I mean. Wow. Waltz with Bashir opens in the U.K. on November 21; opens in New York and Los Angeles on December 26.
So I’m watching High School Musical 3 last night, and I’m thinking, Hey, that Troy kid is really cute. And then I went, Hey, Troy’s dad is even cuter. And then I realized that all the actors playing the parents of all the high-schoolers are, like, my age. And I felt old. And I just … more…
It’s Thursday, so it’s time to remake an 80s classic TV show or movie with an all-new cast. This week: He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, the 1983-5 syndicated cartoon series that was among the first seemingly designed to do nothing but move toys off store shelves. (This topic was suggested by reader Bill. … more…
(previous: Episode 3: “Bad Habits”) Do you smell pie? I smell pie. Mmmmm, pie… [spoilers after the jump!] I was horrified to discover this morning that my DVR had not recorded last night’s episode of Pushing Daisies. I think I’ve fixed what I think was ailing the stupid machine (we’ll see if it records Life … more…
