I guess I’ve been pretty hard on the Best Original Song category this year. It’s not like any given year tends to have a deluge of impressive fodder up for consideration or anything, but on the whole, outside of a concentration of contenders that have a fighting chance at recognition, it just seems to be […]

SUNDAY CENTS: Photo finish!
Posted by Chad Hartigan · 1:31 pm · August 29th, 2010
*All historical figures cited are adjusted to today’s dollars. One last bit of excitement before the summer ends and Tapley starts posting random Redskins photos on Sundays. We have a dead heat race for the top spot at the box office, but estimates are handing the crown to “Exorcist: The Beginning” on this same weekend […]

SUNDAY CENTS: Six Flags > Movies
Posted by Chad Hartigan · 10:38 pm · August 22nd, 2010
*All historical figures cited are adjusted to today’s dollars. Sorry this is checking in a little late today but I’ve been at Six Flags all day having the time of my life. I hadn’t been since they opened a crazy new ride called Tatsu and it kind of blew my mind, but the X will […]

FRIDAY FORECAST: Stop giving Friedberg & Seltzer your money!
Posted by Chad Hartigan · 1:16 pm · August 20th, 2010
*All historical figures cited are adjusted to today’s dollars. Alright guys. Enough is enough. The only thing less funny than a spoof movie made by Friedberg & Seltzer is the conceptual gag that America keeps playing where we ironically buy tickets to see them. Just to make fun of it, of course. Only problem is […]

SUNDAY CENTS: AARP Action Squad!
Posted by Chad Hartigan · 3:15 pm · August 15th, 2010
*All historical figures cited are adjusted to today’s dollars. The internet had been buzzing for weeks. Would the fact that he spent most of the decade in straight to video titles hurt his box office clout. Did Dolph Lundgren still have the box office muscle we all thought he had or did the lackluster performance […]

FRIDAY FORECAST: Nerdgasm!
Posted by Chad Hartigan · 4:37 pm · August 13th, 2010
*All historical figures cited are adjusted to today’s dollars. If you are a nerd, this is the weekend for you. It doesn’t matter if you’re an action movie nerd, video game nerd or self-help nerd, Hollywood has you covered. All in all, it’s an abnormally stacked August weekend with three films that all have breakout […]

Can we ‘Eat’ yet?
Posted by Guy Lodge · 12:49 pm · August 9th, 2010
For a major star vehicle, directed by the current ruler of prime-time television, that is only four days away from release, shouldn’t the profile of “Eat Pray Love” be a little higher right now? I admit I’m on the wrong side of the Atlantic; perhaps American streets, magazines and airwaves are flooded with promotional material […]

Calling all original song contenders
Posted by Kristopher Tapley · 6:11 pm · July 19th, 2010
As we get closer and closer to the film awards season, I thought maybe it was a good time to round up all the potential original song contenders. It’s generally a good idea to keep track of these things, so let’s see what we have so far. One of the best bets is probably Randy […]

PAGE TO SCREEN: “Eat, Pray, Love” by Elizabeth Gilbert
Posted by Guy Lodge · 1:31 pm · June 9th, 2010
(Apologies for the delay in posting this column. Page to Screen will return to its regular Tuesday spot next week.) Chick-lit, the unflatteringly named brand of light confessional writing intended to universalize the problems of modern professional women, has been a beast of a publishing phenomenon since the near-simultaneous arrival on the scene of Helen […]
