• Making too much of a dumb movie

    I don’t often point folks to the political mag The Weekly Standard (okay, except when there’s a LOL funny or pointed column by Larry Miller), but I thought Jonathan Last’s The Hijacking of “The Day After Tomorrow” is a knowledgeable look at how a film that isn’t crafted to make any sharp political points is…


  • SCTV Boxed Set giveaway

    DVD Talk has a new SCTV Vol. 1: Network 90 DVD Giveaway I’m glad to see that this classic show is getting the DVD treatment. It’s the chance for people to see Eugene Levy back before “American Pie” relaunched his career.


  • My Memorial Day viewing

    Tom Selleck Stars in ‘Ike’ D-Day Drama Tom Selleck may not look exactly like Eisenhower, but what is amazing is how he is almost unrecognizeable in the photo shown here. The movie sounds good, so I’m adding it to my roster of events tomorrow. I also have to get up early tomorrow and put up…


  • The best war sim ever

    Pointless Waste of Time has posted The Ultimate War Sim. (Thanks to Lucianne.com for the tip.) The funny thing is…I realize this is pointed satire, but the other part of me would really like to play this game, if only some manufacturer would make it. Oh: Language notice. It’s funny, but it does have some…


  • Mark your calendars!

    Comics Continuum reports that: …the “Starcrossed” movie will be repeated on Saturday, July 31 at 7:30 p.m. I don’t know what time zone Continuum is referring to, so beware. In other news on that same page, Dini is leaving Warner Brothers Animation to “pursue other opportunities”.


  • Primal Scream time

    I will refrain from writing a hundred A’s, I’s and G’s across the width of the screen and simply state that I am furious with Cartoon Network and myself. Two years ago, after anxiously awaiting the three-part “Savage Time” which was to wrap up Justice League’s first season, I found out that instead of showing…


  • WizWorld Philly

    The Scoop has a Wizard World Philadelphia Wrap-Up with a slew of photos for everyone who missed it.


  • Trailer Trash

    I post a lot of links to trailers these days (more than I talk about comics sometimes, for which I apologize). As you might guess, I have always liked movie trailers and dig the art form. I’ve even wished that I could work in the trailer industry…especially when I see movie trailers that are all…


  • Memorial Day

    John Cole’s cartoon speaks for us all. Hopefully you will not spend your Memorial Day like this. (Links will not work after Memorial Day, as JWR links change daily.)


  • Spoiled trailer?

    It sure seems as though the new trailer for Anchorman gives away the entire plot from beginning to end, including the finale. (He gets off the island but finds Helen Hunt married someone else.)
