Man, we are on a roll here. Today is Jean-Pierre Jeunet's birthday. He is 55 years old. If you don't know him, he's the brilliant director of "La Cite des Enfants Perdus," "La Fabuleaux Destin d'Amelie Poulain," and "Un Long Dimanche de Fiancailles." I think that's how you spell the last. My French is getting rusty again. In English - The City of Lost Children, Amelie, and A Very Long Engagement. I wish he would get busy making another film. It's been tooooo long. Love him! I forgot his other fi… Continue

I haven't posted in a really long time, but I had to come out of hiding to wish Keanu Reeves a happy 44th. Forty-four years old. Man oh man. He has a new film coming out in December. You may have heard of it - "The Day the Earth Stood Still." He plays an alien. Hey, no jokes! I love Keanu!!

Saw "Kung Fu Panda" today at the 3:20 p.m. showing and it was fantastico. I laughed through the entire movie. The kung fu is pretty spectacular, and believe it or not, Dreamworks ACTUALLY cast a few Asian actors to do voices. Holy schmoly, you say. Uh, huh. Randall Duk Kim, you know the Keymaster from "The Matrix" voices the awesome tortoise named Oogway (where did they get that name?), Lucy Liu voices the kickarse snake; James Hong, who has been acting since Adam was a lad, voices Panda's noodl… Continue

Saw "Sex and the City" this week - Yuck-o-rama. I think people who spend $525 on a pair of shoes should be sent to a Third World country for community service. It's just disgusting all of the product placement. And correct me if I'm wrong, but Sarah Jessica Parker is NOT a model. She is not attractive. Someone give Hollywood casting agents some glasses. Strong ones! Also saw "The Strangers." Pretty bad. I'm tired of all these characters being stupid. I'm going to talk about the film so SPOILERS… Continue

Wow! Chow Yun Fat is 53 years old today. He's the greatest. My favorite films of his are his most recent ones, especially "Curse of the Golden Flower" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." I see that he's going to be in "Dragonball," which is an adaptation of the anime "Dragonball Z." For some reason, the lead is going to be played by Justin Chatwin, who ruined "Invisible." It looks like this might be another horrible Hollywood corruption of an Asian concept. Making me a bit more positive is the… Continue
