I recall there being several moments in Quantum where, due to the nonsensical editing, I genuinely couldn't tell if Bond was chasing the bad guys or the bad guys were chasing Bond. As you rarely see humans chasing after zombies, these scenes will presumably be more clear-cut here, at least.

The plague of terrible names afflicts all genres, regions and races pretty much equally these days.

I think you and I were in the same band, or else this is a common first-time-in-a-recording-studio experience. I'm still not sure how that engineer managed to make my old folk-infused punk band sound like a Jesus Jones knockoff.

I love MBV.
Loveless is just about my most-played album ever, and Isn’t Anything isn’t far
behind. Love them, love them, love them. But I’m glad this piece points out the

You know what would make me more likely to pay $12 to go see a movie? If I was allowed to do all the other things I usually do at home for free while I'm there.

It made its official production budget back, yes. However, it didn't make anywhere even NEAR its production budget-plus-marketing-plus-whatever-else-the-studio-doesn't-like-to-talk-about budget back. (Especially for big studio films, the official budget the studios talk about publicly is usually between 2/3 and a 1/2…

I never got him either. And forget about bloggers — on my bus ride home tonight, I can find you some fiery pundits who'd love to angrily debate politics if you want, with the added bonus of a knifefight almost certainly breaking out at the end. It wouldn't be any less educational than listening to Olbermann and…
