Walking out of The Last Mimzy I felt indescribably sad. It took me a second to figure out why – after all, the movie didn’t end on a sad note, and even if it did, the film is so incapable of eliciting any emotional response beyond annoyance that I couldn’t… Continue reading →
When Rainn Wilson came into my room at The Last Mimzy press day, he positioned another chair next to the one he was sitting in and stretched himself out, pretty much laying down at the head of the table. It was sort of a weird position for me, because I was… Continue reading →

Last night the SciFi Channel had their upfront presentation here in New York City. The big announcement of the evening was that the network was picking up Battlestar Galactica, one of the best shows to ever run on television, for a full fourth season, after… Continue reading →
There’s nothing but an imaginary line separating the United States from Canada, yet most of us in the States only know Kim Poirier as the girl in the Dawn of the Dead remake who takes a chainsaw to the chest. But our Canuckian neighbors are more familiar with… Continue reading →
