Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I mentioned a couple days ago, when I featured the trailer for Gamer, that it sounded like maybe Gerard Butler’s American accent had improved dramatically over its dreadfulness in The Ugly Truth. And here we can tell that yes, he’s been working with a voice coach or … more…
Production started today on the 2010 series of Doctor Who, the one with Steven Moffat in charge and Matt Smith starring as the Doctor, and the BBC released the first image of Smith in costume: Looks like David Tennant’s 10th Doctor geek chic has been exchanged for… what? Nerd chic? At least the boots keep … more…
It’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Dream Cast, and this week we’re doing something special in honor of the American holiday Fourth of July. I’ve always wondered why we haven’t gotten a big, juicy, emotional, dramatic, epic movie about the revolt of the British colonies in the New World, especially considering how many spectacular … more…

And, OMG, I think I dreamed this once: Quoth USA Today (also whence this graven image hails): “He doesn’t have the old Robin Hood tights,” says producer Brian Grazer. “He’s got armor. He’s very medieval. He looks, if anything, … more…
I’ve never thought about this before, and why would I: No one seems to want to talk about it. I think that fact alone is a serious indication that something nefarious is afoot. Listen: Have Christian Bale and Kermit the Frog ever been seen in public together? Is there any evidence at all that they … more…
This is probably the best two-hour, 2009 version of that six-hour, 2003 British TV miniseries possible.
President Obama may have us all feeling more confident that the collapse of civilization because of credit swap defaults — instead of the way-cooler zombie apocalypse or ape uprising The Movies had promised us — has been headed off for the moment, but that don’t mean a penny saved ain’t still a penny saved. And … more…
