Grand Unified Pixar: insane… and kind of brilliant, too
It all begins with the witch from Brave… and then it gets really crazy…
Pixar
Monsters University review: back of the class
Monsters, Inc. was in no way calling for a sequel, and here it is. (new DVD/VOD US/Can)
“Journalist Wanted. No Pay.” ugh (and other adventures in social networking)
Stuff my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today…
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?
Brave (review)
Finally! Pixar gives us a fully fledged, well-rounded, beautifully developed female protagonist, with a complex, provocative personal journey that is hers alone. A film of her own!
question of the day: Are ethnic stereotypes in pop culture — such as the cartoonish Scots in Brave — ever defensible?
Is there a way to utilize such stereotypes in storytelling without being offensive?
Monsters University (teaser trailer)
Really? Monsters go to school… and it’s just like when humans go to school? This is clever and original? Is Pixar losing it?
a U.S.-only Avengers postcredits tag scene (and other adventures in social networking)
What my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today…
question of the day: Has the surprising success of ‘The Lion King in 3D’ opened Pandora’s box office?
Are we going to see a mad rush by all the studios to convert old — and not so old — movies to 3D and get them back out in multiplexes? Would that be an entirely bad thing? Would it be better if we just got unconverted classics back on a big screen?

His secret: Perry just doesn’t make the same old shit again and again. He makes new, different shit.
