Christmas Puts A Stake In Vampires
Looks like teen vampires could not contend with the contentious glamour of family (dysfunctional family) over Thanksgiving holiday. Reese and Vince topped the box office with "Four Christmases" (yes, we're all on a first name basis here). The scoop :  ...

Bad-Ass Brits
Picture, if you will, Hugh Grant in high pursuit, spraying rounds of bullets out of a fast-moving car. You can't? All right, how about Hugh Grant clad in a bat suit gliding over ... more Gotham, taking on the unpredictable carnage of the Joker? No, not possible? OK, how about Hugh ...

Screaming Teens Never Get Old
Since there's no way in hell I'm going to actually get into a screening of a little movie called "Twilight" today, I'm choosing to watch these horrified screaming girls over and over and over again instead. These girls are taking this fan thing and not effing around. Yes, they are ...

Roger Ebert: Man In The Mirror
This may be one of the greatest pieces Roger Ebert has ever written. Why this man has not penned an autobiography is beyond me, but his writing seems to get better the older and more wonderfully bemused he gets : "What does it feel like to resemble the Phantom of the Opera? You ...

Brad Pitt On 'Oprah' Still Makes Me Uncomfortable
I know he's handsome, rich, famous, talented and married to one of the world's most beautiful women, but why do I always feel a little sorry for Brad Pitt's appearances on "Oprah"? He's incredibly gracious, but you really get the sense he doesn't want to be there. That being ...

'Twilight' And Troubled Teens
I love the drama of teenagers . Even the over the top, bad apple, Ritalin popping insanity of them -- sometimes especially for this (I can relate, I wasn’t exactly an angel). And lately it’s been hard to not think about teenagers with all of these hysterical girls lining up for the newest ...

Hugh Jackman: Sexiest Man Alive?
I should hate myself for posting this but...I'm fond of Hugh Jackman. Not as every midwest mother's fantasy, but as Wolverine, of course. But back to why I should hate myself. People magazine anointed him "The Sexiest Man Alive!" Here's the sassy (!) details :  ...

More 'Twilight' Mania
"Twilight" fans are not messing around. Damn. Never underestimate the power of tween girls, not yet introduced to Anne Rice, crushing on hottie young vampires. (By the way, what does Anne Rice think of all this?) From Deadline Hollywood : "Summit Entertainment ...

To Bond Or Not To Bond
Is the newest Bond a bore? "Quantum of Solace," director Marc Forster's follow-up to the terrific "Casino Royale" (helmed by Martin Campbell) has opened to mixed reviews. Could someone else have "done it better?" Perhaps. From Variety : "The shortest ...

Bond Through The Ages
James Bond is in a word, timeless. An enduring symbol of effortless cool, irresistible sex appeal, intelligence, style, sophistication and class, it’s not surprising that the actors who’ve played him have had some big (and chic) shoes to fill. But when looking back at our cinematic Bonds ...

Happy Birthday Robert Ryan
Do they make actors like Robert Ryan anymore? Do they ( women ?) make men like Robert Ryan anymore? No. They do not. One of my favorite actors (particularly in film noir) that ball of combustible rage (and odd, wounded sympathy) would have been 99-years-old years today. In honor, ...

I Heart Seattle
Not movie related but...aw...who cares? It takes something to get people from my hometown of Seattle, Washington to let themselves go (outside anyway -- it's cold out there!). But when they do, they don't fu** around. Such was the case on the night of Obama's win. Though that Journey ...
