First teaser for the Coens’ next film Inside Llewyn Davis about a folk singer from the 60s popped up today. Looks pretty Coeny, and I mean that in the best possible way. Some existential shit’s going on and how good does Carey Mulligan look? Take a look below. Release date is listed as February … Continue reading
With Oscar nominations announced and Sundance in full swing, it’s easy to get swept up in the hot topic chatter of the best of 2012 and what’s new in 2013. But it’s important to take a step back and remember that despite how fun awards season mania may be, it’s not the be all, end … Continue reading
I’ll be honest, I couldn’t write a recap of the much anticipated Shameless premiere (3×01 “En Gran Canon”) because I was so unimpressed it actually killed me. Shameless came in at #2 on my Top 10 Shows of 2012 list, and after its lackluster return last Sunday I couldn’t bring myself to write a lackluster … Continue reading
So let’s jump right in. 4×10. “After School Special”. High school eulogy for Mama Lockwood. Buzzkill. Tyler’s angry-moody and Elena wigs out. Caroline and Bonnie are concerned for both, respectively, Bonnie for Elena and Care for Tyler because let’s be real, Caroline pretty much hates Elena right now. Oh look! New guy! They know him … Continue reading

Sunday’s episodes of Happy Endings and Don’t Trust the B– were previously un-aired episodes from past seasons, so while totally worthy of watching, I’m not going to include them in my weekly round-up. Watch them anyway, in-order episodes are for sissies! In fact, it’s just been announced that ABC is now reneging on their double … Continue reading
Jeff Nichols’ follow up to 2011’s Take Shelter (for which Michael Shannon deserved a nomination and was one of the year’s best) debuted at Cannes last year and is making its American debut at Sundance this week. Looks like McConaughey is continuing his 2012 golden streak into 2013, and that’s fine by me. The once … Continue reading
With Happy Endings and Don’t Trust the B– airing twice a week plus New Girl I for reallllz have no idea how to do recaps of all the hilarity. So I decided to do a little “best of” recap-u-let each week that will dole out prizes to various moments from the past week in sitcom … Continue reading
Trance came in as my #8 most anticipated movie of 2013 and here’s the first trailer! Directed by Danny Boyle and starring James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson and Vincent Cassel. Stylish, edgy, psychological. What Danny Boyle does best. I have a feeling this movie will give us back the pre-Slumdog Boyle, more of the Sunshine Boyle … Continue reading
