Sasha Grey on Tyra Banks
I remember someone posting this on hipinion a while back. Was very impressed how cool and dignified Grey was while Banks was treating her like some street hooker to be pitied (like Banks didn't suck cock to het where she is…).

If Trust doesn't work out…
… surely Unbelievable Truth or Simple Men are better Hartley options than Amateur or Henry Fool? They're all very good but there's some magic in Hartleys early work that's missing after Simple Men…

Besides being very funny, I was amazed at the level of genuine tension that Franklin created, and sustained, in Quick Change. It's definitely a movie long overdue for some love. Glad to see the AV Club is on to it!!

Phipps seems to have liked this far more than the majority of others critics…
Most reviews I've read have damned the film as completely empty filled with characters you don't care about. Sounds like Matrix Revolutions to me. I don't ever wast to be reminded of Matrix Revolutions ever again…

I have to get to the library… FAST!
Seeing this movie was an ordeal, but I did laugh my ass off at that one line. Not enough to ever think of this film again, mind you…

Yeah I'll pile in the Crystal Skull hate, but must drag Last Crusade in as well. Last Crusade has definite signs of the "comedy" that marred every film Lucas has been involved with since.
The biggest thing that pissed me off in those films was the treatment of Marcus Brody. In Raiders he's an equal, even a mentor of

Can't get my head around Alan Ball creating True Blood…
It''s like the Paul Thomas Anderson creating The O.C or something. Is he out for the easy paycheck, or is it actually good?

I'm a sucker for envelope pushing controversy, usually at my own detriment. There was a French film that got a brief release here in Australia years ago called Baise Moi, which was a truly awful, horrific film trying to position itself as provocative art. Of course when the film was being threatened with a national

So the pattern I'm sensing…
…is that all films from usually reliable directors this year have wound up disappointing at best.
Having said that, my curiosity about Antichrist will have me seeking it out, regardless of reviews…

Get down and give me… infinity.

She is awesome.

While SR was ultimately pretty dull, I thought Routh was decent as Supes, and I hope they make another one (a much much better one, mind you…) with him returning…

Hardware was a pretty decent flick from memory. I always liked the story of how the director, Richard Stanley, got sacked mid-way through making that Island of Dr Moreau remake in '95, and spent the rest of the shoot disguised as a mutated extra only to watch in horror the mess that the studio made of his original

McKellar is awesome, but he's no Callum Keith Rennie…

Well if it cheers you up, every other review I've read from the screening said it's Campion's strongest work in years…
But you know I'm the only person in the world who thought In the Cut was an truly amazing, and criminally ignored, film. Yes, that Meg Ryan movie…

Cliffhanger Redux…
Was already done with Bruce Campbell and Sean Astin in a made for TV Canadian movie, although if they're aiming for the "young and sexy" angle, as opposed the "aging with love handles" angle, perhaps different casting may be necessary…

Here here! Bang up job, Tobias!!

They all pretty solid in their own way. When I watched Intolerable Cruelty I viewed it as a Coen Bros interpretation of the rom com genre, and on that level I thoroughly enjoyed it…

I…… am Sancho!

I watched Demons for the first time the other night…
… and I heard the Argento directed sequel is quite the mind fuck, too.
