Courtesy of Empire, the obligatory character posters for Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox which opens November 13th. This one is facing a bit more flack lately than Spike Jonze’s Where the Wild Things Are (can we have a moratorium on the word “twee” now? Please?), but my enthusiasm is still running high.
Five more [...]

Future DVD gewgaw: Fantastic Mr. Fox
Posted on September 2nd, 2009 by Craig Kennedy
Apple has an exclusive (well it was exclusive until it popped up on YouTube and everywhere else) behind the scenes look at Wes Anderson’s adaptation of Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox.

The Watercooler: The cove, the chef and the cold soul
Posted on August 9th, 2009 by Craig Kennedy
After all the buzz surrounding The Cove since its Sundance premiere, finally catching up to the documentary at the theater turned out to be a significant disappointment.

Trailer: Julie & Julia
Posted on April 29th, 2009 by Craig Kennedy
I’m a closeted PBS cooking show watcher, a huge fan of Julia Child and I’m still in the tank for Meryl Streep after Doubt last year so I have to admit this is on my radar a little bit even though I’m not the target audience and I’m pretty convinced I’ll hate it.
