Since nobody demanded it, a timeline placing the effects of the new Star Trek movie in a proper context.
And no, its not because I’m jealous that its impossible to reconcile Pre-Crisis, Post-Crisis and Current Superman events in one cohesive timeline why I dub this the work of nerdniks.
Really.
Argh.

Superman/Batman Public Enemies Trailer
I will be watching.
(In Russian because Warner Bros. yanked the trailer from YouTube because heaven forbid you get free promotion on the Internet…)
Quentin Tarantino’s Love Of Quentin Tarantino
The early word from Cannes about Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds seems to echo what we’ve already seen with his previous movies: the man needs an editor. In Death Proof, Kill Bill, and Jackie Brown what could have been great movies slipped into only slightly better than average territory due to sloppy editing. Its as if [...]
Princess & The Frog Full Trailer
I am loving the artwork. No offense to CGI, especially great flicks like Wall-E. Toy Story 1+2 and A Bug’s Life… but there’s just something about well done animated art from a pencil.
New Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen Trailer
As usual, contains Megan Fox.
UPDATE: GI Joe trailer is out too. Just need Wuzzles: The Movie and we’re set.
Michael Bay Does Breakfast
Transformers 2 Footage: Contains Megan Fox
Probably the crazy action madness I’m most looking forward to this year.
Michael Sheen Might Be Typecast
Playing the same role three times in 10 years is a bit much. Michael Sheen is playing Tony Blair again.
Disney Princess & The Frog Characters
Looks interesting. I’m looking forward to this movie because a) It’s got Disney’s first black princess and b) It’s not CGI, but good old hand-drawn animation. I’m not a CGI hater (I loved Wall-E and Toy Story) but I truly love deluxe Disney-style theatrical animation.
Catholic League’s Bill Donohue To Get Run Over By Tom Hanks/Ron Howard
The notoriously idiotic right-wing organization that speaks for a fringe group of Catholics is going to attack the upcoming Angels & Demons movie. Donohue & Co. went after The Da Vinci Code and the movie just eked out $758 Million worldwide.
I am sure Opie is quaking in his boots. His really expensive, Oscar-nominated boots.
UPDATE: The [...]
Watchmen Movie Review
Watchmen completely succeeds as a loving adaptation of a classic comic, but it comes up short as a movie.
Up until the current mini-renaissance in comic book films, the result of a comic adaptation was hit or miss. For every Superman or Superman 2, there were quite a few films like Supergirl, Ghost Rider, etc. [...]
Watchmen: Downfall
If you haven’t read Watchmen there are spoilers, but if you’re a Watchmen fan, this is pretty funny.
Megan Fox To Play Fathom
Now of course Fathom is better known for the late Michael Turner’s “good girl” art than anything else, but it could be interesting…
Fox would play Aspen Matthews, who was found abandoned on a ship and is adopted by a military man. She becomes a champion swimmer and marine biologist who comes of age realizing she [...]
Green Lantern Movie 2010
Next year the green hits the screen. Please don’t suck!
Is Casablanca Overrated?
A few weeks ago I saw for the first time that American classic, Casablanca. I’ve heard my entire life that this is one of the greatest films in American history, a milestone of filmmaking whose catchphrase, “play it again, Sam” will forever be etched on the walls of film lore. Yet, I didn’t think the [...]
Conservative Movie Fail
Clip from Team America: World Police (very very very NSFW language) that shows that its not a conservative or liberal film
There are so many things wrong with this list of “conservative” movies. First of all, something right: I do think The Incredibles is conservative in its message of why artificially making everyone “special” means that [...]
