Ok, I used to work for TNR, I work for a lot of magazines and rarely read any significant amount of their content. Christopher Orr, though, a movie reviewer, is awesome. There’s no shortage of older reviews he’s done that I love, but most recently check out his “review” of The Happening. It’s not a [...]

Ben sent this one in. For those of you who don’t know me, it will be worthwhile for you to know that Ong Bak is one of my favourite movies for sheer out and out ass kickingosity. Watching that with the knowledge that there were no special effects, wires or other such trickery blew my [...]

Monday Art is fun!
Ok, tell me if you don’t think this is a bad idea. Philadelphia is rolling out fake speed bumps, that is, they’re putting things down on a flat road that make it seem like there’s a real (3D) speed bump, but there isn’t. (via) Remember when they tried this with fake cop [...]

I’ve been iffy on Clone Wars, I mean that interview with Lucas was achingly bad. Now there’s some footage of the thing. Watch first then we’ll discuss:

Well, that doesn’t look too bad. It isn’t hard to make a big budget trailer packed with fighting Jedi that looks good. But check out this trailer with some [...]

I mean, he LOSES it, throwing monitors at people, throwing cubicle dividers at people, throwing… paper… at people… Not one person until someone, who I presume to be security, walks in the door and finally gets [...]

Huh, I didn’t even know there was another one already. Didn’t No Country just come out? I guess, they’re some hard working brothers! Well, here it is, and featuring Coen brother favourites as well as more star power than you can shake a stick at. You gotta like it when they say “PC or Mac?”.

Huh, I didn’t even know this was a thing till I saw it on SF Signal. But this trailer looks more than a little awesome. I think I’m more excited for this than the live action movie.
Batman Gotham Knight - Official Trailer
Well?

Well you’ll be happy and relieved to know that CW has put in an order for 13 more Reapers. While it isn’t the most fantastic show out there, I still like it alot and recently it’s been on a getting really good trajectory dropping the tired formula that dogged the first many episodes and exploring [...]

Ok, first just a pair of movie thoughts. First up John Scalzi writes for AMCTV his thoughts on whether or not Guillermo del Toro is the right man to direct the Hobbit (I really like that Scalzi). (via) I just like in his thoughts how he notes Jackson’s free ride through King Kong and Lucas’ [...]
