Because it seems like The Golden Compass is turning into fool’s gold: Movies for dummies: Two-hundred-mill-plus budget? It can’t help but flop…

Such a heartless tease: “Preorder your DVD!” But I want it now…

All round the dial A December Saturday No Hanukah flicks

It’s 9am on a Saturday, and I’m off to a screening of Alvin and the Chipmunks… Saturday mornings Hoards of kiddies turn out for Screamings, not screenings

Part of a series: Movies for dummies: The guy who looks like he’s dead? Only mostly dead…

Yer standard romantic comedy: Act I: Hey, you’re cute… Act II: Oh my god, you’re vile! Act III: I love you!

Second in a series: Movies for dummies Modern monster B-flicks? It’s Sci Fi Saturday

Yer basic movie: Act One: “Let’s explore!” Act Two: “It’s hopeless! We’re doomed!” Act Three: “We’re okay!”

I saw a new show on Broadway tonight: The Farnsworth Invention, and my head is full of it… A broadcast empire Built on theft: Farnsworth’s TV NBC’s glory
