I walk away for a minute and the trailer everyones been waiting for finally drops. Figures. I was a die hard Moulin Rouge! fanatic back in the early aughts. We can use my parents as...
...I feel very much like this. Also, theres never a bad reason to post a slow motion video of Alan Rickman having a slow motion dramatic tea time.
As soon as one 007 film is released we begin to look ahead to the next one. What will the title be? Who will be cast as the villain? Where will they find the girls this time? ...
Ladies and gentlemen, we have reached the end. 100 songs, a whole lot of movies, and not a single one of them is Ghost. Thats right, its not an oversight, "Unc hained Melody...
Its becoming surprisingly difficult, lately, to defend the ambush comedy antics of Sacha Baron Cohen. Where "Da Ali G Show" and Borat were brilliant social criticisms, Bruno was a criti...
When I was 18 I would never have fathomed that there might come a time when the world would suffer from overexposure to Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. It’s a terrible ennui, but a valid one.  ...
Next weeks entry will be the final one for this list, and before we reach that critical point Im going to ask you to speak now or forever hold your peace. If you see something missing, its very...
I have not been sleeping well lately. While this has nothing to do with the subject at hand, it should, at least, explain why it is the post time on this entry will probably clock in at about 2...
The wild rumpus came to an end today. Beloved childrens book author/illustrator Maurice Sendak died after experiencing complications from a recently suffered stroke. He was 83. Sen...
A little overdue, but part 8 has arrived. The problem with a largely personal blog? Deadlines dont actually exist. Anyhow, this time around I figure I should clarify that the qualifying f...
Beastie Boys co-founder Adam Yauch passed away today at age 47. In 2009, Yauch announced he was battling a cancer that infected his salivary glands and lymph nodes, a battle it is truly unfortu...
Albatross is like the literate teen film companion piece to 2010s Tamara Drewe. Emelia - a smart, pretty, too-wise-for-her-17-years young writer (Jessica Brown Findlay) -takes up a housekeeping...
I had a conversation at some point in college with a then-friend who was also starting to tear through the Criterion Collection. Shed watched Whit Stillmans Metropolitan (which I hadnt yet...
Were slowly learning more about how this might play out (though with all the arguments and theories Ive heard thrown around, I feel like Ive lived it twice), and the concept art and promotional foota...
On Monday I had this moment where I wasnt sure I was actually going to be able to fill this list and I started to have visions of the final entry being made up of Emma Stone singing Natasha Bedingfie...
Im trying very hard to stop myself from typing the term Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Im telling myself that I dont believe in that term, that its ridiculous and ever so slightly insulting. The...
Apparently I need to reread Cosmopolis. I know I read the Don DeLillo book back in the day, or whatever, but I dont remember it quite like this. Cosmopolis made the list of most anticipat...
In which we dont know if were ever going to have a relationship, we cant control our hearts, and California has our soul. We are the rock n roll, we are different, we are sun-soaked, burnt around the...
Over half way there and going strong. Were over the mountain, its all downhill from there, or, you know, whatever adage youd like to insert here: ___________. This week, we ditch any sort...
Magic Mike is the movie previously whispered about as the "Channing Tatum stripper story", a seemingly out of character dramatic comedy from Steven Soderbergh that is, yes, based on real-life...
Prometheus is almost here, folks, and it seems like more and more of the films world is being revealed each week. The latest is a faux product introduction to David, the android played by Micha...
Last weeks installment was dominated by heavy heavy dourness and super serious business. So, as promised, this week needs to lighten up a bit. I mean, seriously, dude, we need to relax. S...
The strange place where film and music meet has been highlighted a lot here lately, so why not step outside of the movie and share a place where the two meet in the real world? The soundtrack f...
Im not much of an Oliver Stone fan. In my humble opinion: that dude is massively overrated. So, the fact that I have any interest at all in Stones newest venture is some kind of weird, ra...
Were not even halfway yet, and the number of times Ive seen the dreaded YouTube "embedding disabled by request" buzzkill is rising exponentially. While I try to find ways around it, in ...
Its been a few years since Woody Allen stepped in front of the camera, but hes back to lead a cast of favorites To Rome With Love (formerly titled Nero Fiddled). The jokes sound like trade...
This list has become a sort of pet project right now, and the hardest part of this weeks ten has been exercising some restraint and holding back on including another Tarantino or Wes Anderson pick. &...
Since the box office success of YA sagas like Harry Potter and Twilight, movie studios seem to have been engaged in their own type of hunger game; specifically, one of Hungry Hungry Hippos. &nbs...
Ive felt rather on the outskirts of the film blogging community over the last couple months. Perhaps its because Im just not the best at staying on top of comments, perhaps because no one wante...
So, you know by now that 21 Jump Street is good. Youve heard it, youve seen it, if the Hunger Games is sold out I recommend you check it out. Because, yeah, its awesome and yeah, its cram...
