trailer break: ‘Mars Needs Moms’
Mars needs moms to tell them to eat their broccoli? Oh, yes, that’s what turns out to be the case. Doesn’t Mars need dads, too?
movie buzz
question of the day: What should we expect from the upcoming ‘Blade Runner’ sequels and prequels?
As as you ponder this question, keep in mind that it’s the folks who gave us The Blind Side and The Book of Eli who will be making these films. Try not to cry…
trailer break: ‘Lord of the Dance 3D’
Ho boy. I saw Lord of the Dance at Radio City Music Hall in New York a godawful number of years ago, and I remember being flattened back into my seat by what was basically Riverdance gone Vegas.
trailer break: ‘The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec’
Oh. My. God. How cool does this look?
Weinstein Company has a fucking comment on the shit piss fuck PG-13 version of ‘The King’s Speech’!
It’s sort of like someone getting blasted by an atom bomb and then commenting on how lovely and warm the weather suddenly is.
wtf: ‘Clash of the Titans 2’ will be converted to 3D
Our Hollywood overlords hate us.
wtf: Harvey Weinstein doesn’t want you to see the version of ‘The King’s Speech’ that just won Best Picture
If you despair of the lack of smart, mature movies for adults now, just wait till The King’s Speech, reedited for knee-jerk prudes afraid of their own shadows and unable to competently parent their children to explain how words work, makes $100 million at the box office.
trailer break: ‘Apollo 18’
Hmmm. I wonder if I would have been happier not seeing this trailer. Infection? Is that it?
trailer break: ‘Take Me Home Tonight’
Isn’t Topher Grace way too old to be playing the Guy Who Dropped Out of School to Bum Around in a Video Store Until He Figures Out Who He Is? Oh, right, I forgot: American male postadolescence extends until the age of 40 these days.
maybe it’s time to just give the fuck up on movies
Warner Bros. to remake The Bodyguard. You don’t even need to know anything beyond that.
