Now, under normal circumstances, following the events today would result in one of my usual screeds calling the Screen Actors Guild a bunch of overpaid out-of-touch morons that apparently haven’t picked up a newspaper lately.
But it’s the surprise twist that makes it downright worthy of The Sixth Sense. And what a twist!…it is.

You’ve truly got to love Monty Python–all the egomania of Metallica with the same sense of charity as dear old Mother Teresa herself condensed into one big package of funny.
Apparently, all you YouTubers out there, of which I am one, have been ripping off the Monty Python boys for years by posting clips of their best jokes to YouTube without their consent or permission.

I tell you this…I believe I am officially burnt out on Saw surprises.
There is nothing they can do now to surprise me. They’ve done the most bizarre things I’ve seen anyone do to a franchise. They’ve played musical directors. They’ve built a VH1 reality show for the express purpose of finding ONE ACTRESS to play on Saw VI. Don’t even get me started on Saw IV.

As a badass freelance entertainment journalist, I have to keep an eye out for trends–seriously, it’s part of the job!–and I think I’ve found one that’s downright disturbing.
Namely, the retraction of the horror genre.
Now, for the last roughly six years or so, horror movies were coming out fast and furious. The theatres were getting in a new one every month, and in some cases maybe even two a month. The video stores were having a heyday in terms of horror movies–it wasn’t uncommon to see as many as TEN new titles in a week, and a week with fewer than five was a noteworthy event and often a prelude to one of those bigger weeks.

So the reviews are coming in for recent teen-rave vampire drama Twilight.
Despite the spectacular grosses it’s brought in so far, it seems that the audience is calling the whole thing 
rather anemic. And this poses a rather interesting problem for movie studios.
For background, let’s take a look at some quotes:

Steven Spielberg and Will Smith, planning to make the Oldboy movie, want to assure us in no uncertain terms that this is not a remake.

This one hit me like a bolt out of the blue.
Apparently studios are looking to abandon Tuesday as the new official release day for DVD.

And I want five twenty-year-old Asian chicks to bring a twenty pound Snickers bar to my house wrapped in thousand dollar bills.
But that ain’t happening either.

On the surface, “Quantum of Solace’s” title is ironic. Its meaning beyond that is not explained in the film. Quantum is simply the organization that Bond is up against, and solace is what there isn’t any of. The action almost never ceases, and there are few respites from quick cuts and death-defying stunts. It is an Action 
Film.
But to say that “Quantum of Solace” relies on its action, as many have done, is unfair. “Casino Royale” simply couldn’t be this kind of movie, since so much revolves around men in suits sitting a table. If “Casino Royale” was about a card game, “Quantum of Solace” is about oil and water. Besides religion, nothing else has spurred so many wars in the history of humankind.

So I saw the teaser trailer for Pixar’s next movie, coming out this May, and I’m just absolutely floored.
Oh, sure, I’ve been floored by Pixar before. And frankly, I have yet to see a bad Pixar movie. But watching the trailer for this one was a little something special. Follow the link to it here. The synopsis is taken from the link in case you’ve got a slow connection: Read more…
