I’m totally obsessed with District 9, and I don’t care who knows it. I haven’t been this gripped by a movie in years: it’s almost like being in love: I can’t wait to see it again. (I’m gonna have some time to kill on Thursday evening before my midnight show of The Final Destination, and … more…
I’ve got a piece up over at Film.com about Redbox, the buck-a-day DVD rental kiosks you may have seen around your town in supermarkets and drugstores. Hollywood is terrified of Redbox’s success and is trying to hobble the company’s service: Warner Home Video and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment… are demanding that Redbox hold back … more…

I was away from the TV for most of the day yesterday, between work stuff and a screening in the evening and dinner out afterward and a long subway ride home, so I managed to miss the TV news hysteria over Michael Jackson’s death. Now, though, I’m watching last night’s Keith Olbermann on my DVR, … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Bruno – Red Band Trailer | Movies & TV | SPIKE.com Oo, that “man with two dildos” bit is so an homage to Monty Python and their man-with-a-pointed-stick sketch. Does Sacha Baron Cohen go too far? Maybe. But he goes too far in the right direction, and … more…
A cynical attempt to mine some cash from one of the few remnants of Generation X’s collective childhood that has yet to be picked over for the sake of nostalgia and some ready cash.
