Confession time: I haven’t watched anything on Saturday Night Live in years. I’ll catch a skit or short here or there on YouTube, but in general, I’ve left the show behind. Or maybe it’s left me behind. Either way, SNL works for the people for whom it works,… Continue reading
Welcome back to Late to the Party, the lively and exciting column in which I cast a bemused look over those films that I really ought to have seen years ago. This ninth column is something special, and by that I mean I promise I won’t do ones like it often.… Continue reading
Roving Mars was released on DVD yesterday. This documentary follows the Mars rovers Spirit and Opportunity as they, well, rove. We'll have a CHUD review of this beauty soon, but in the meantime you might just bypass our opinions altogether and win a copy of… Continue reading
Sometimes you just have to sit up and say, ‘Yay, internet.’ You can be forgiven for thinking that the net has devolved into nothing more than flame wars, kiddie porn and inane cat memes perpetrated by retards… but every now and again a new website pops up… Continue reading

While reading CHUD’s interview with Robert Downey Jr., I was struck by Downey’s insight on how the trailers for big time movies have become just as important as the film itself, if not moreso. And I found myself immediately thinking about 1-18-08/Cloverfield… Continue reading
I got distracted this morning trawling the news and sifting through press releases. A beckoning tangent led me to investigate as much as possible the new PSP title Harvest Moon: Boy and Girl. Another Harvest Moon for the handheld so soon after Innocent Life?… Continue reading
