Attention, thoughtless husbands: your wife will NOT be impressed if you take her out to dinner and a movie on your wedding anniversary and the film you pick is this one:

I saw the 21 trailer in the theater before Cloverfield began, and I have to say I was pleasantly impressed.This clip crams a lot in, but it does so at a fairly brisk pace and provides an intriguing look at the movie’s plot. It looks like the story turns dark at some point - a [...]

With Burbanked having just reached the tender age of two, you may start to notice something…well, that I feel I should warn you about. All this year, a particular topic, celebrity, rumor or other piece of movie news may set off my inner toddler, sending me into a particularly cranky mood. So when you see [...]

As per my usual sense of being on top of these kinds of things, I’m a full day behind in discussion of the new trailer for next summer’s top contender The Dark Knight. The truth is, I was too busy watching this trailer yesterday to write much about it.
It’s that good. In fact, it’s [...]

I’m going to go ahead and run afoul of a lot of movie sites - some of which are my closest blog pals like Ray and maybe Piper - and say that the new Speed Racer trailer delivered by the Wachowski brothers from Warner Bros. is something pretty spectacular. And I mean that literally; it’s [...]

If you haven’t seen it seven times already, here’s a link to the Cloverfield Quicktime trailer page. I hadn’t gotten too swept up in this hype yet. I think that J.J. Abrams is an incredibly savvy marketer and it’s certainly exciting to feel the buzz - but this is a really great trailer. Doesn’t give [...]

Here’s a nifty little TV spot for the December flick I Am Legend that I saw today on Movie Marketing Madness:
I have mixed feelings about Legend, only because I love the source material and what we’ve seen so far looks pretty good. I’m just always concerned when it comes to Will Smith that a good [...]

Dedicated screenwriting 101 here: From an interview with Harrison Ford on the MTV Movies Blog in which the inevitability of another Indiana Jones movie is mentioned:
MTV: Is the ball in George’s court at this point? Ford: It is. That’s the process. With some general input he goes off and searches for the MacGuffin and then stumbles into a story. And at some point we have a chance to take a look at and give some input.
Now granted this is Ford’s opinion of Lucas’ “creative process”, yet still: when one of the three principals of the Indiana Jones legacy classifies the story creation process as a haphazard, one-man effort that only superficially seeks outside input, it’s hard not to feel frustrated. Not surprised, just frustrated. Dear Mr. Spielberg: please put your foot down and either demand a coherent story or walk away. Just do us all a favor, could you? Maybe? (found via FilmDrunk)(2)
11.19.2008Okay, I need your help here. Sonny, Michael Corleone and Tom Hagen keep bringing up the fact that they want to go see Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa.
How do I get out of this? I love going to the movies with my boys, opening up their minds to the great pleasures of cinema and all that, but this is a hard one. Please help me: do I suck it up and just go, or can anyone out there provide me with a plausible, kind-hearted, permanent way out? (10)
11.14.2008I’m not sure how to say it nicely: This one-sheet is crap.

10.23.2008What an excellent tribute to the late great movie voiceover guy Don LaFontaine. No need for more words, because the Voice already says it all:See more funny videos at Funny or Die (5)
