So Day-vuhl and I have this friend named Dave Canfield who is, without a doubt, the biggest geek I know. And he is quite proud of this fact. This man has the largest collection of odd movie memorabilia (including an authentic leg-lamp a la A Christmas Story), figures and books … [Read More]
It’s true. Don’t try to deny it. And for proof head over to Working Title Films and check out the trailer for Shaun of the Dead. Defending yourself from the undead with Dire Straits records … tee hee …
What’s up with the people at Miramax? Like it’s not enough that they buy up rights to good films and then sit on them for years but when they finally do give something a release they have to royally screw it over, even if it’s just on DVD … Case … [Read More]
Mmm. Trailery goodness. Some with commentary, some without. Innocence: Ghost in the Shell Two reasons to get excited about this film. 1) Mamoru Oshii is a genius.

I have never read The Hitchhiker√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s Guide to the Galaxy. Everyone says I should, and now I guess I’d better do it before the movie comes out. If I can overcome my procrastination I may even read it before the trailer comes out… next year. The Internet Movie Database page … [Read More]

Oh Yes! The Razzies are here! For those of you who may not know, the Razzies are the Anti-Oscar. Each year they give out the WORST awards, and a lot of people (including me) have come to anticipate them almost as much as the Oscars themselves! Even Al Pacino is … [Read More]
