But it’s 103 degrees in Los Angeles today and there are at least more 100-plus degree days on the horizon, so please forgive me if I’m not quite in the spirit of the season yet....

This Week In Trailers: Bikini Girls On Ice, Mother Of Invention, What’s The Matter With Kansas, Eva By Christopher Stipp/July 16, 2010 2:30 pm EST Trailers are an under-appreciated art form insofar that many times they’re seen as vehicles for showing footage, explaining films away, or showing their hand about what moviegoers can expect. Foreign, domestic, independent, big budget: I celebrate all levels of trailers and hopefully this column will satisfactorily give you a baseline of what beta wave I’m operating on, because what better way to hone your skills as a thoughtful moviegoer than by deconstructing these little pieces of advertising?...

‘Anna And The Apocalypse’ Is A Scottish Zombie Christmas Musical…and It’s A Blast [Fantastic Fest] By Jacob Hall/Sept. 25, 2017 9:00 am EST As a Scottish zombie Christmas musical comedy, Anna and the Apocalypse sounds like a joke. And for a little while, it feels like one.

‘Ghost In The Shell’ Review: An Adaptation As Cold And Lifeless As A Machine By Josh Spiegel/March 31, 2017 7:00 am EST The live-action remake of Ghost in the Shell is a cinematic cubic zirconia that thinks it’s a diamond. The real thing exists, and is much easier to recognize; even at its gloomy, stylish best, this version is a poser unable to hide its true nature. The 2017 Ghost in the Shell is itself a ghost, a trace of something familiar left behind that can’t quite replicate the sense of being introduced to a strange new world that feels disturbingly close to our own....

Box Office: Why Does The Expendables Continue To Thrive, While Scott Pilgrim Continues To Flounder? By Adam Quigley/Aug. 22, 2010 10:48 pm EST As Sylvester Stallone reigns supreme at the box office yet again, the sting of Scott Pilgrim’s failure to resonate with the public only deepens.
