Okay, it’s not that absolutely no one is going to the movies — it’s just that a lot of people do seem to be avoiding the multiplex lately. And you can’t say that it’s because the movies are mostly crap. The movies are always mostly crap — this same time last year saw a huge … more…
Have you heard about this bint Margaret B. Jones, whose real name is Margaret Seltzer, a boring white chick from, like, Sherman Oaks or somewhere who thought she could fool the world into thinking she was a gangbanger? The publishers of a critically acclaimed memoir about a girl raised by a black foster family who … more…
The Net is abuzz today with the news of the alternate ending to I Am Legend — which will apparently be on the DVD — that is so much better than what we actually saw in the theaters. You can watch it here; thanks to reader boz for pointing this out to me, and everyone … more…
Newsflash! Apparently some guy called David Hernandez who’s appearing on the modern Gong Show known as American Idol has been revealed to have been a stripper! Shocking! Unbelievable!

But on the other hand, if it means a concentrated refocusing on making fewer and … more…
So it turns out people are stabbing one another for no reason at showings of the horror movie The Signal, which is about people stabbing one another for no reason. What isn’t widely known is that this kind of thing happens all the time, and not just with horror movies inspiring people to go on … more…
Maxim magazine got itself in a tiny bit of hot water this week when it published a review of the new Black Crowes album without anyone actually having listened to it. Maxim called the review — which gave the album two and a half stars out of five — “an educated guess.” Peter Angelos, the … more…
Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony made history: by garnering the fewest viewers ever for an Oscars telecast. Apparently there are many different reasons why no one gave a crap this year: not enough of the nominated movies appealed to women, and even though the nominees were mostly “guy” movies, guys didn’t want to see them either; … more…
