To Woody Harrelson in Zombieland, the Twinkie was a “spunky yellow delicious bastard.” But the totally objective, just-plain-fact of the matter is that Twinkies are nasty. And somehow, they are rendered even nastier when the creamy filling is green: Does it taste like wasabi? Or like mold? It’s an adventure in every bite! (Apparently, there … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Huh. I didn’t know Quentin Tarantino had gone to Bollywood. Where’ Uma Thurman?

We should have been so lucky. The U.K. box numbers are out, and Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood fared much better on its nominal home ground (for all the Brit involvement, it’s still an American-funded production keyed to a Hollywood mindset).
