--- The Dead & The Toaster - EW.com's got an extended version of their interview (a shorter version is in their current issue) with Battlestar Galactica stars Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck) and Michael Hogan (Col. Tigh) up. In it Hogan lets slip the tiniest of tidbits on the first episode of the 4th season. Don't expect much, or even a suprise really, but it's something!
--- One Pissed-off Mama - I really like the poster for Neil Jordan's The Brave One, starring Jodie Foster, and I'm not even sure why. Maybe I just like yellow? Anyway, anyone else think this movie gonna be a homerun? I really want it to be.
--- Consider my Tivo set - MNPP still loves him, so when Eli Roth is the featured filmmaker on Steven Spielberg's filmmaking reality show On The Lot on July 3rd, in which the contestants will be making horror movies (found via The Horror Blog), I'll be watching. [Insert naysayer's comments here about Roth's ability to judge horror; la la la, I cannot hear you naysayers!]--- Evening not-so Delight - Nat got to see the star-studded Evening and says it's a mess. From Zoom In:
"At first you can’t believe that so much talent has been gathered for one movie. But by the end of this awkward deathbed reverie you can’t believe your eyes or ears that this is what they’ve done with that abundance."
--- At his own blog, Nat lists the ten greatest performances in Paul Thomas Anderson movies. Fairly certain he didn't do it in reference to my post about PTA's birthday yesterday so I'll just take it as karmic. Anyway, LOVE the Mary-Lynn Rajskub love, and totally agree with his numero uno choice. Can't be beat.--- Playing catch-up - Glenn at Stale Popcorn does mini-reviews of a heap of movies he's seen lately, including Rosemary's Baby, Zodiac, and Naked Lunch. I ought to do these sorts of posts sometimes; there are so many movies I watch that I never speak of on here.
--- Stares and glares and who cares, oh my - you know, I'd feel a lot better about The Invasion's chances of not totally sucking - even despite the delays, the director squabbling, and early insanely negative reviews - if they'd just release a single still that was, I dunno, scary. All this "oh-my-god face" on characters staring out of frame doesn't do much to instill hope. Here's a bunch more of the same - but new! - here..

As long as the horror movies Eli has to judge are better than last week's excruciatingly awful, nonsensical and not even remotely scary “The Orchard,” by Jessica Brilliant then i will be fine.
oh, and if he could wear a tank top, that would be good too.
Uh JA, the link for The Invasion goes to American Airlines, and it doesn't have the (.com).
And the poster for The Brave One is pretty good.
Whoops; it's fixed now, JD.
I haven't watched any episodes of the show, jwise; has it been any good?
I have alot of confidence in The Brave One for the simple fact that I think 99% of movies Jodie Foster chooses to make are always entertaining and interesting. She doesn't go all Jude Law and work every 6 seconds, she only works when she's interested.
Mary Lynn Rajskub is extrememly underrated. Just watch her in Mysterious Skin.
On the Lot scares me b/c that obne girl is supposedly one of the best undiscovered filmmakers out there and she made a movie about a tree being cut down that used graphics straight out of Windows Movie Maker. Hopefully Eli Roth gets her for being such a doob.
As for Invasion, the things I hear just make me more and more nervous that it will suck.
In regards to the Brave One poster. Gun = Symbolic Dick. Equating violence to a man's dick? Not original. But I still hold lots of faith in Foster and Jordan.
Um...ja, there has only been 1 neg review that you posted and one that actually matters (in other words, from a site that not many have heard of), from AICN, was actually really positive?
Do your research buddy!
