In my day, the great debate was “Star Wars or Star Trek”? Today it appears to be “Harry Potter or Twilight”? (Openminded and ecumenical fans have always known that there was no need to choose, that there is always plenty of passion to spread around.) The half-not-kidding jokes about Your Favorite TV Show or Movie … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Gonna have to call bullshit on this. A 40-year-old man is romantically partnered with a 30-year-old woman in a movie, and Hollywood doesn’t utter a peep of acknowledgement about the age difference, never mind make it the purpose of the entire movie. Hell, movies don’t acknowledge age … more…

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… It’s all funny, see, because the car is little. Little car! Bill Nighy should have asked to see Ron Weasley’s Hogwarts transcript before he invited the kid to be his assistant assassin. Kid can’t even handle a magic wand — a gun in his possession could be … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I cannot tell you how excited I am to see this latest installment in the Harry Potter and the Lord of the Rings with the Golden Compass: Prince of Persia and the Sands of Time film series. And the decision to release the movie in 3D is … more…
Today, Tim Burton’s baroque and pointless adaptation of Alice in Wonderland will cross the $1 billion mark in worldwide box office receipts, as The Hollywood Reporter noted the other day.
