New Trailers!
The big news in trailer-land this week was the release of our first substantial look at DC/Warner Bros.’ big new Green Lantern film. Check it out: Not bad at all. I am cautiously optimistic that this will be the big, cool sci-fi superhero epic we all want it to be. You can
Spielberg In The Aughts: The Terminal (2004)
You might have thought that Tom Hanks had a crazy accent in Catch Me If You Can, but that was merely a prelude to the ludicrously silly sort-of-Slovic voice that Mr. Hanks puts on for his role as Viktor Novorski in Steven Spielberg’s 2004 film, The Terminal. Viktor Navorski (To
Josh Reviews Andy Barker, P.I.: The Complete Series!
Andy Richter has headlined two terrific but quickly-cancelled TV series. A few years after the demise of Andy Richter Controls the Universe (which was cancelled after FOX aired 14 of the 19 episodes produced), Mr. Richter stepped into the lead of Andy Barker, P.I. on NBC. The pe
“If you love me, then love me.” The Dark Tower Book IV: Wizard and Glass
So here we come, at last. Since first discovering the world of The Dark Tower with Marvel Comics’ The Gunslinger Born series of mini-series, I have been eager to reach this fouth volume. That’s because I knew that the Gunslinger Born comics were mostly adapted from mat
Spielberg in the Aughts: Catch Me If You Can (2002)
When I began this project of rewatching the last decade-and-a-half’s worth of films directed by Steven Spielberg, I was hoping that I’d discover (or rediscover) some great films that I had perhaps dismissed too easily when I originally saw them in theatres. I wondered i
Josh Reviews Andy Richter Controls the Universe: The Complete Series!
One of the many, many great TV shows that aired briefly on FOX before being cancelled well-before-its-time was Andy Richter Controls the Universe. This short-lived show, which aired in 2002-03, was Andy Richter’s first TV series effort after leaving The Late Show with Conan O&
Will Ferrell Sings the Star Trek Theme Song!
This is a must-watch, my friends. Thank me later.
From the DVD Shelf: Insomnia (2002)
There’s no question in my mind that Christopher Nolan is one of the best directors working today. There’s only one of his films that I haven’t seen (his first — Following — and I do hope to remedy that situation soon), and I have thoroughly enjoyed ever
News Around the Net!
The casting announcements have been coming fast and furious for the new Spider-Man film, but I just can’t muster up much excitement. I simply think it’s a terrible idea to re-boot the Spider-Man franchise, which felt to me like it still had a ton of gas in the tank (desp
Spielberg in the Aughts: Minority Report (2002)
When I first saw Steven Spielberg’s film Minority Report in theatres back in 2002 (the only time I’d seen the film until I watched it again on DVD last week), I remember it becoming startlingly clear to me that the man has trouble with the endings of his films. I recogn
