Thor Thunders Through Teaser Trailer!
It looks to me like Kenneth Branagh knows his Asgardians. Very cool!
First Look: Michael Bay’s Transformers: Dark of the Moon!
Maybe it’s just me, but I get the feeling that 3-D was made expressly for Michael Bay movies…
Morning Glory Is A Fun, Fluffy Workplace Comedy!
I’m guessing that Morning Glory won’t figure too highly on the Tomatometer – it’s not particularly substantial, despite trailers that suggested it might a slightly less deranged Network for morning shows in the 21st century [with a dash of romance thrown in]. What it is, is a light, fluffy comedy that deals with a workaholic […]
Megamind Takes The [Bleep] Out Of Superhero Movies–In 3-D!
Just when you were beginning to think you couldn’t handle another superhero movie, Dreamworks Animation comes along with a clever, quirky superhero spoof that hits its target spot on. In a deft play on the genre, Megamind answers the question: what would happen if a supervillain actually won? And what happens after that?
True Grit – New Full-Length Trailer!
The new trailer for The Coen Brothers’ True Grit has it all: stunning imagery, great lines and cool music – including a perfectly appropriate Johnny Cash song. Could the Coens be on their way back into Oscar® territory? Based on the new trailer, I’d say they’ve got a good shot…

The Last Airbender: Book One: Water – It’s Not as Bad as Lady in the Water!
The question is this: how does one adapt over four hundred minutes of story from twenty episodes of an excellent animated series into a one hundred-minute movie? The answer is, apparently, not very well. A slightly less pressing question might be: why did anyone think a hastily applied 3D conversion would help this muddled excuse […]
MOVIE NEWS: Paramount Announces UNTITLED Les Grossman Project After Landmark 2010 MTV Movie Awards!
If, like me, you were puzzled by the amount of attention given to Tom Cruise’s Les Grossman during the MTV Movie Awards last weekend, then today’s press release from Paramount, announcing a film about the character [though treating him very much like an actual Hollywood heavyweight] should clear that up. The frequently hilarious press release […]
MOVIE REVIEW: Shrek Forever After Ends the Franchise on a Positive Note!
Shrek [Mike Myers] has become [he thinks] ordinary – he has a wife and three babies; random strangers ask him to roar for their children; the Far Far Away tour bus stops by his swamp home to point out the totally not scary ogre who saved the kingdom. Life is perfect. Perfectly boring. More than […]
MOVIE REVIEW: Iron Man 2 Hot for Summertime
With the current trend of Hollywood movies, sequels have to follow a unique blend of key ingredients in order to make it taste good. First, it has to keep the spirit of the first film alive and well. Next, it has to bigger, better, and stonger than the last. The sequel has to give us that sweet […]
