As 2009 comes to a close, it’s time for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to award the producers who have sent out the most gift baskets in the last year with a tiny gold statue. And to improve on the mediocrity of nominations from 2008, this year the Academy has decided to sift through […]
I’m not sure if this flow chart came straight from Steven Seagal himself or not, but it looks pretty accurate. (I actually found it here on a place that is quickly becoming my favorite website.) Then again this whole thing seems a little overly complex. Cause to my semi-literate eye, it looks like Steven Seagal (who is […]
In general, the quality of something is a result of the company that surrounds it. For example: you are presented the opportunity to choose between a BMW, a Ford Focus, and a Saturn Ion. Clearly, the BMW takes the prize. In contrast, if you are presented with a Saturn, a Yugo, and a Datsun, the Saturn would finish on […]
My early Christmas present to you. (via I Love Charts) It seems like the higher up the ladder that Morgan climbs, the worse the chance is that he will be in a good movie. (Disclaimer: I haven’t seen Invictus yet.) Because I would rank these movies: Shawshank, Glory, Se7en, Amistad, Prince of Thieves and then a whole […]

Anteblindness, an interesting conversation brewed over the best sequels of all time. You’d figure given the tendency of terrible sequels to spawn from a box-office hit that was probably such because of […]
This is old. And it doesn’t really have anything to do with movies. But I forgot that this blog existed when I first saw it, and Zach Galifianakis is in movies. Plus it’s awesome. So I figured I would share. And if you enjoyed the “Between Two Ferns” stylings of Zach and Conan, be sure to check […]
This image is likely too small to get anything but the gist of the concept/joke, so click on this link back to the original, giant-sized one (which comes from the excellent xkcd) to really delve into the whole thing, but the juxtaposition of Lord of the Rings and 12 Angry Men is good times. I like good […]
Rain is a waterfall against the windows of the double doors, and Annie Lennox’s version of “Don’t Let it Bring Your Down” streams softly from surround-sound speakers as iridescent street globes cast soft light through the windows on a blonde body lying on a pillowy sofa while two masculine hands remove her black pants and begin to […]
