WatchTrailer for Greg Mottola’s film Adventureland, based off his experience working at the tiny Farmingdale, New York amusement park. Even though they didn’t shoot on location at the actual park, being from Long Island and having spent many a summer day in my youth at Adventureland, I feel like I have a strange connection to this film.
Re: JJ Abrams' Star Trek
I love observations like this. From Peter Sciretta at slashfilm…
Much has been made of the opening sequence of the new movie trailer. A young kid jumps out of a moving car as it zooms off the edge of a cliff. The reveal is that the kid is the future Captain of the USS Enterprise, James T Kirk. The sequence is constructed to get a specific reaction: “This doesn’t look like any Star Trek...

January is shaping up to be the best TV month ever.
The Dark Knight Revisited.
Tonight, I attended a screening of The Dark Knight at Goldstein Student Center on South Campus. Forty plus people crammed into a classroom to watch a poor projection of the smash hit film. My housemate (who had not yet seen the film) and myself (who went at midnight July 18th, and haven’t looked back since) took two seats in the second row. Despite the poor quality of the print and some obtrusive...
Is the variety show coming back?

Others may have noticed a news story that broke concerning John Mayer being in discussions to host a variety series for CBS.
All of this seems kind of fishy. The celebrity variety hour died with the...

TV Winner of the Week.
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia. For doing a Revolutionary War period piece. So many fantastic things occurred in this episode. Besides the “blow your mind” ending (pun intended), I thoroughly appreciated the fact that they titled the episode, “The Gang Cracks The Liberty Bell,” and then completely abandon that premise until the end when they threw it in almost as...
TV Winner of the Week.
While the Mad Men finale was superb, and appropriately haunting, the TV winner of this week goes to The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror XIX. Nineteen years into their annual Halloween special you’d think things would be getting stale, but you’d be wrong…dead wrong. We saw pop culture grabs from Transformers, Charlie Brown, and yes, Mad Men. Insidey entertainment industry jests at...
