Death at a Funeral: Jesus fucking christ this sounds fucking awful.

The Joneses: Hey, at least it’s better than the most recent X-Files movie!

Mid-August Lunch: Another exhilarating entry in the “Old people sitting around” genre.

More, as ever, in I’m Staying Home, Film Shorts, and Movie Times.

  2. Why the hate on Ebert? Mark Millar is an overated uber-hack who’s a baseless, exploitational idiot who couldn’t script his way out of a piss-soaked paper bag.

  3. It’s also the time to go see Avatar in 2D. Hey Now!

  5. @Sara Felice: C’mon.
