Cars 3 movie review: road to nowhere
Three movies in, and this world of sentient driverless cars still creeps me out, and still does nothing except advertise a mountain of related merch for kids.
Cars 2
Planes review: crash commercialism
“Good” for nothing but the electronic babysitting of toddlers and fomenting consumer desire in impressionable children for the new line of made-in-China Dusty Crophopper extruded plastic. (new DVD/VOD US/Can)
question of the day: Are Pixar movies released too close together for each of them to get classic status?
Is Pixar working too fast? Is its talent stretched too thin? Or is Pixar doing just fine?
question of the day: Has Hollywood abandoned young men?
Transformers, Pirates of the Caribbean, Thor, Green Lantern, X-Men, Captain America, etc. This is what 2011 looks like at the movies. In what way can it be construed that young men are “endangered” at the box office?
question of the weekend: What would be some awesome evidence that homo sapiens and planet Earth had been intelligently designed?
We might have two livers as well as two kidneys and two lungs. There might be no plants or animals that are poisonous to us. What else?
Cars 2 (review)
Those clever sneaky Pixar folks are warning us that if we Americans don’t clean house, we’re going to bring the whole world down with us, and the entirety of human civilization will collapse into a nasty soup of irrationality and ignorance.
Brave (teaser trailer)
A girl heroine! In a Disney movie! And she’s not a princess! (Well, she is, in fact. *grumble*)
more embargo idiocy: ‘Cars 2’
No one in the UK go look at reviews coming out of North America, okay? All youse guys must wait for the end of July before you may read reviews. Thank you.
about ‘Cars 2’
Cars 2 (trailer here) doesn’t open in the U.K. till the end of July, but I’ll see it on Sunday morning. As long as there’s no embargo in place after that, expect my review sometime late Sunday or early Monday.
trailer break: ‘Cars 2’
This trailer hurts so much it makes me want to cry.
