Movie Reviews and Previews The Red Cape You know who that red cape belongs to without looking at the captions? This is of course the red Superman cape, as seen on Henry Cavill, in Illinois on Friday shooting the movie. I am nowhere near a Superman super geek but, um, I’ve seen all the Christopher Reeve By Lainey • Aug 22, 2011 06:05 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Baseball and Brad Pitt Brad Pitt and the Moneyball publicity machine are coming soon. Or, more accurately, the Brange and the Moneyball publicity machine are coming soon. They`ll be coming for TIFF. They will be on the sell all over the place. Because they’re saying Moneyball could be one of those feel- By Lainey • Aug 22, 2011 02:42 am
Movie Reviews and Previews What’s up with Trespass? It’s a movie starring Oscar winners Nicolas Cage and Nicole Kidman directed by Joel Schumacher. Something about a rich family getting trapped in their home by thieves and going postal on the gangsters in retaliation. Have you seen the poster? It’s AWFUL. And the tagline? When terror is By Lainey • Aug 19, 2011 08:59 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Dorky out of context Isn’t it? The Avengers is currently shooting in Cleveland. This is supposed to be 42nd Street in New York. And Captain America and Thor are fighting the bad guys. Check out Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth in their costumes with their hammers and shields. Kinda dorky, right?

Movie Reviews and Previews Harry why you so scary?!?? They’ve released a teaser trailer to the first film starring Daniel Radcliffe since the end of the Harry Potter film franchise, The Woman in Black. I admit, I’m a pussy when it comes to scary movies and don’t handle them very well. Especially Chinese scary movies because By Lainey • Aug 17, 2011 08:15 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Franco + River at TIFF James Franco, the artist, has always said one of his favourite films, maybe even his favourite film, is Gus Van Sant’s My Own Private Idaho.

Maple Leaf Please stay like this as long as you can Keanu Reeves with short hair and no crazy beard situation arrived in LA yesterday. This is how I prefer it. He on the other hand is most comfortable walking around New York looking sad. Still, in my opinion, the best meme ever. Yes, even better than Hey Girl Ryan Gosling. By Lainey • Aug 16, 2011 06:17 am
Quiveration The Gossip Buffet: Now serving Jeff Buckley Written by Sarah The long-awaited Jeff Buckley biopic (once called Mystery White Boy) is happening at last and Jake Scott (son of Ridley) is onboard to direct.

Dumbass Does Bridget die? If she dies at the end, I may like it more than if she doesn’t because at least that would be surprising and not just another two hours of the same sh-t made for the third time because ... I don’t actually know what the reason is, do By Lainey • Aug 12, 2011 05:17 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Marketing The Help Box office projections for The Help this weekend look strong. They say it’ll do at least $25 million and may even get to $30 million and beyond. It could be a great start to Viola Davis’s Oscar campaign. I love her. And that would be great for her. By Lainey • Aug 11, 2011 07:10 am
Style One Day in 10 days I was about write, “Why didn’t they premiere this in London”, and then I realised that would be a really bad idea right now. As a brief break from London burning though, have a look at this photo of Ealing and the #riotcleanup. Last night over in New York, By Lainey • Aug 09, 2011 04:17 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Hathaway as Catwoman Warner Bros released the first photo of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman today. It’s a little underwhelming. I mean, I know Christopher Nolan doesn’t do cheese so her cat-mask is more like a set of goggles and I don’t see any pointy ears which, fine, because camp By Lainey • Aug 05, 2011 08:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Changing up Emma Duana wasn't a big fan of Emma Stone in Crazy, Stupid, Love. Didn't hate her, just thought she was too samey. Click here for Duana's review.

Movie Reviews and Previews Like Crazy Restless As I noted when I went to Sundance, Like Crazy was the film I wanted to see most coming out of the festival. Click here for the original post. It may be the Blue Valentine of this year. A love story, also total improv. And the first trailer just dropped By Lainey • Aug 04, 2011 08:13 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Superman with an open mind They’ve just released the first shot of Henry Cavill as Superman. I guess he’s supposed to be, like, breaking apart steel or something. You like it? I dunno. I generally don’t find men in leotard attractive, even if there’s mutant strength and a cape involved so. By Lainey • Aug 04, 2011 03:42 am
