Last week Neil Gaiman made a post to his blog that dealt with “stuff. you know, things.” And one of those things was the making of MirrorMask: After reading all your journal entries lately about the Beowulf and Stardust movies you’re working on, something is puzzling me. I admit I know nothing about the politics […]

Wednesday was our last official day of classes, which brought with it two final presentations and a holiday party that evening at our house. A great day, but a long day – so on Thursday night Ivan, Alec, Alec’s friend Hannah, Sam and Sam’s wife Amanda all headed down to the Loews on Boston Common […]

Screen tests are being completed this week, the trade paper […]
I couldn’t get the movie to work, alas, but maybe you’ll have better luck: watch Muppet cranks Statler & Waldorf as they review recent trailers on Movies.com.
I have not yet seen Batman Begins – some friends of mine and I are going to see it in IMAX this week – but I’ve been following the previews and the buzz pretty closely, and I’m thoroughly looking forward to this. I was a big fan of Tim Burton’s Batman back in 1989, and […]
Wow. I just got back from the midnight showing of Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and it was incredible. No spoilers here – unless you somehow missed that this one doesn’t have a happy ending, which would mean that you’ve either been living under a rock or somehow waiting for Episode III […]
Holy catfish – my friend Shannon has one of her films, Persistence of Vision, screening right now at Cannes! Wow! You go, girl!
