    Russell T Davies steps down from Dr Who!

    When I saw Davies was stepping down, I went "Noooooooo--- ohh. Moffat. Okay, we're good." "Girl in the Fireplace" was, and is, and probably always will be, my all-time favorite episode... it was just so fantastically done, from beginning to end.

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [spoilers]

    Yeah, exactly. If I want drama, I'll go watch Heroes. If I want a documentary, I want a DOCUMENTARY. Yeah, I miss the old Discovery Channel. Too bad it's such a thing of the past... hopefully all the "retro" interest these days will result in some of those great old documentary shows being...

    Hey look another Highlander movie

    I don't know... I've been seeing stuff about this, and who knows, it could be good. They've been doing well with remakes recently, so I'll reserve judgment until I see more of it. :)

    [Trailer] Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Eh, I have no problems with movies intended for younger audiences. I'll probably go see it. And I still weirdly really like Brendan Fraser, though I can't put my finger on why, and I have so many issues with The Mummy franchise... I love the movies, but yeah, issues issues. It's what I get for...

    Wargamers Rejoice! Narnia 2: Prince Caspian has plenty of Fantasy Battles!

    The same people who did the effects/made a lot of the costume pieces and props were the same guys who did Lord of the Rings stuff. So you know they're capable of making the darker, grittier, more real costume pieces, but that what they've done in Narnia was actually a conscious choice. They...

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [spoilers]

    Indy has premiered at Cannes, and most of the critics are actually saying it's really good! The reviews range from "Awesome!" to "Really good fun," and every so often there's a "Meh, this is just more of the same." I don't really see how that last one is a bad thing... wasn't the whole fear that...

    [Trailer] Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Oh oh, that would be absolutely mind-blowing. I hope it'll come to an IMAX near me. It'd be worth the exorbitant IMAX ticket price.

    Dollhouse publicity stills and trailer (Whedon)

    Out of curiosity, did you find Firefly to be too cutesy? I have to admit, Eliza Dushku would not be my first choice to star in a new Joss Whedon show. But that's what the show is, and I'm going to watch every episode. I can't wait.

    This Weekend @ the Boxoffice: 2008.May.12

    I also thought the movie was hilarious, as well as visually and conceptually stunning. Some of the humor might've been better appreciated by people familiar with anime -- but I swear, that scene where everyone's fighting each other in the hotel before the Fuji race had my friends and I laughing...

    Iron Man 2, Thor announced for 2010

    *shudder* Bite your tongue, Archchancellor.

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [spoilers]

    Speak for yourself. ;) I like Shia LeBeouf. I agree, Megaton. I think I'm going to just forget all the naysayers and go with an open mind, prepared to enjoy myself, and I suspect I probably will. :D

    [Trailer] Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Dude, I hope so. Imagine that in 3D, too. I'm going to go see Speed Racer again, in IMAX this time... I think my brain may well melt out of my ears due to too much awesome.

    *dies laughing* Yeees. Awesome mental image! I love that movie!

    May Movies - What do you want to see MOST?

    Well, I've seen Iron Man, Speed Racer, and an advanced showing of Caspian... and argh, they've ALL been good. In my opinion, Iron Man was the best (RDJ!!), followed by Speed Racer, which just blew me away in every way. And I was pleasantly surprised by Narnia, I actually really liked it. The...

    [Trailer] The Incredible Hulk

    I think the effects and cinematography look about equal, but Edward Norton and Liv Tyler are wooorlds ahead of Eric Bana and whatserface. I'd go see any movie, literally any movie, that had Edward Norton in it, and I don't say that lightly. Also, Tim Roth is awesome awesome -- so while I was...

    Forbidden Kingdom-What Do You Think?

    I thought it was a relatively good compromise between eastern and western cinematography styles, a good blending. (Think anime + american cartoons = Avatar, that sort of thing.) Anyway, I agree with you, I thought it was highly enjoyable. The fight scenes were fun, I found the kid pretty cute...

    [Trailer] Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    I'd seen the trailer in computer version before, but last night I saw the trailer on the big screen, and whoa, what a difference it makes. Before I was just pleasantly ambivalent toward this -- now I kinda really want to see it. The animation's interesting... can't decide if I love or hate it...

    May '08 What are you reading?

    Chronicles of Chrestomanci, by Diana Wynn Jones. Such a fantastic book, it's always just as good (if not better!) each time I reread it.

    Wargamers Rejoice! Narnia 2: Prince Caspian has plenty of Fantasy Battles!

    Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I saw an advanced screening of Caspian Tuesday, and I can confirm that it's waay better than the reviewers are saying. Then again, I liked Speed Racer, so maybe you can't trust me. But there are definitely tons of battles in there, and they're...

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [spoilers]

    As far as I can tell, there's a lot more Shia LeBeouf than there was Short Round. Shia has a much larger role, whereas Short Round was relegated to little quirky sidekick with an occasional (if hilarious) one-liner. LeBeouf appears to be much more integral to the plot. I think there's other...
