One movie I’m looking forward to this summer is Michael Mann’s “Public Enemies,” starring Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillar. I understand there is some trepidation from Mann fans given the director’s last outing was the not-so-great “Miami Vice.” I have a hard time believing Michael Mann is capable of dropping two consecutive cinematic bombs, and based on what I’ve seen from the “Public Enemies” trailer, it’s going to be chock full of gangstery goodness.

It’s been awhile since I’ve revealed the scantily clad shame of of my Netflix queue and opened my top ten to ridicule, mockery and overall lambasting. Right now I have “The Reader” sitting at home on Blu-ray, Kate Winslet’s netherregions beckoning for watching in HD. When I’m done with that, here’s what is forthcoming from my pals at Netflix. Click on the link to watch the trailer for the movie and let me know what you think. Good? Suck? And …
I remember it vividly. The date was November 1998, I was eating lunch and listening to my illegally downloaded copy of (thanks Napster!) Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing.” I had skipped class so I could sit by the computer and watch the new “Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace” trailer download via my free dial-up Internet connection.

Quentin Tarantino has released another basterd for your viewing pleasure, no doubt in anticipation of the “Inglourious Basterds” premire this month at the Cannes Film Festival.

Word from online ticket seller Fandango is 91 percent of online ticket sales are for “Star Trek” and 91 percent also consider themselves Trek fans. 64 percent of those surveyed also said they aren’t upset William Shatner is not in the movie. And to that I say: the bloated and old Priceline Negotiator has no place in this movie.

More poster goodness from Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” today, this time a poster of French actress Mélanie Laurent. According to IMDB.com, Laurent will play Shosanna Dreyfus, a French-Jewish girl whose family is murdered by the Nazis. Shosanna escapes and operates a movie theater in Paris.

I am not a Trekkie. I have never dressed up as a Klingon or, for that matter, any member of the U.S.S. Enterprise. I think the phaser is an effeminate weapon that doesn’t come close to sheer awesomeness of the lightsaber or a blaster. Yes, Spock’s ears bug the crap out of me, as such I’ve never said “live long and prosper” and might consider socking someone in the gut who did. Furthermore, with the exception of “The Wrath of …
I saw this posted over at The Movie Blog and had to post it here, as well. It’s from The Onion which has 100 percent better news than anything blaring on the “real” news right now. Anyhow, enjoy the clip below and happy Cinco de Mayo! Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As ‘Fun, Watchable’
