Pan’s Labyrinth is playing in Ottawa?
January 18, 2007
The trailer was posted here a few weeks ago. Today’s Ottawa Express has a review for Pan’s Labyrinth. This is the first movie in a while I have been this excited to see (after seeing it hit the top 10 of 2006 lists for so many movie critics).
I still can’t find out which theatre it’s playing at though. Does anyone know?
Pan’s Labyrinth trailer
January 10, 2007
Written and directed by Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Blade 2), I’m really looking forward to when this starts playing locally. A lot of film critics consider this the best movie of 2006 (It was released on Dec 29th, although not in Ottawa).
“Pan’s Labyrinth” is the story of a young girl who travels with her pregnant mother to live with her mother’s new husband in a rural area up North in Spain, 1944, after Franco’s victory. The girl lives in an imaginary world of her own creation and faces the real world with much chagrin. Post-war Fascist repression is at its height in rural Spain and the girl must come to terms with that through a fable of her own.
Children of Men movie trailer
January 4, 2007
“Y the Last Man” fans take note.
“Children of Men” envisages a world one generation from now that has fallen into anarchy on the heels of an infertility defect in the population. The world’s youngest citizen has just died at 18, and humankind is facing the likelihood of its own extinction. Set against a backdrop of London torn apart by violence and warring nationalistic sects, “Children of Men” follows an unlikely champion of Earth’s survival: Theo (Owen), a disillusioned ex-activist turned bureaucrat, who is forced to face his own demons and protect the planet’s last remaining hope.
Shrek the Third trailer / Ocean’s 13 trailer
December 29, 2006
Yes, it’s another movie trailer. I’m sorry.
Shrek 3 comes out this summer, and it they have enough of a fan-base that they aren’t worrying at all about putting together a good trailer. Ugh.
Live action Transformers trailer
December 29, 2006
I hear they’re really modernizing the plot by comparing energon to heroin and having Bumblebee come out of the closet.
Gridhouse trailer (new flick from Tarantino and Rodriquez)
December 29, 2006
They’re at it again and they’re doing a horror double feature that will be coming out on April 6th.

New Movies HotOrNot (2006/12/15)
December 15, 2006
I’m switching things up a little bit. Instead of giving a one sentance review based on no criteria what-so-ever (I haven’t seen the movie yet), I’m going to rate it as a HOT pick, a NOT pick, or could go either way and repeat the plot in one sentance from IMDB. I’ve also made a slight change to the formating on my movie site.
As you may have guess, the Christmas season is upon us and most of the releases are meh. As usual, click on read more to see more details about the movies.
Charlotte’s Web (2006) – HOT.
Wilbur the pig is scared of the end of the season, because he knows that come that time, he will end up on the dinner table. He hatches a plan with Charlotte, a spider that lives in his pen, to ensure that this will never happen.
Eragon (2006) – HOT/NOT.
In his homeland of Alagaesia, a farm boy happens upon a dragon’s egg — a discovery that leads him on a predestined journey where he realized he’s the one person who can defend his home against an evil king.
Blood Diamond (2006) – HOT/NOT.
A farmer, a smuggler, and a syndicate of businessmen match wits over the possession of a priceless diamond.
The Holiday (2006) – HOT/NOT.
Two women troubled with guy-problems (Diaz, Winslet) swap homes in each other’s countries, where they each meet a local guy and fall in love.
The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) – HOT/NOT.
A struggling salesman (Will Smith) takes custody of his son (Jaden Smith) as he’s poised to begin a life-changing professional endeavor.
Apocalypto (2006) – HOT/NOT.
As the Maya kingdom faces its decline, the rulers insist the key to prosperity is to build more temples and offer human sacrifices. Jaguar Paw (Rudy Youngblood), a young man chosen for sacrifice, flees the kingdom to avoid his fate.
Where’s da movies?
December 13, 2006
Sorry about the lack of movie post last weekend. I was helping engtech with his list of favorite geek films and favorite tv-shows and I broke the script I use for movie updates.
Hopefully it will be fixed by this weekend.
Until then, here’s the trailer for the new movie (Hot Fuzz) by the guys who did Sean of the Dead.
Stop motion video battle – Tony Vs Paul

Why Weeds is my favorite new TV series
December 4, 2006
Andy Botwin: [to Shane about masturbation] Alright, listen closely. I’m not going to beat around the bush. Ha ha ha. Your little body’s changing – it’s all good, believe me. Problem now is… every time we jerk the gerkin, we get a lot of unwanted sticky white stuff everywhere, right? Right. So… First order of business – no more socks. They’re expensive, gumming up the works plumming-wise. Now you might be thinking to yourself, “But, Uncle Andy, what do I do with all that pearl jam if I can’t spew it into Mr. Sock?” Glad you asked…
You can have a lovely time tugging the tiger in the shower each morning – that eliminates the need for a goo glove. But, the day is long, masturbation’s fun, so unless we want to take 4 or 5 showers every day, we’re gonna need some other options. So let’s start with the basics. Tissues. Perfectly acceptable backstop for all that Creamy Italian. They can be rough and dry on such soft, sensitive skin and it can stick to your dick head like a fuckin’ band-aid – ouch. From there we move on to more lubricated flack-catchers – specificially, bananas.
Step one: Peel the banana.
Step two: Slip the peel over your Randy Johnson and start pitching.
Now for extra credit, warm up the peel in the microwave. Not too hot! Serious yowza. Also, olive oil, moisturizer, honey, spit, butter, hair conditioner, and Vaseline can all be used for lube.
In my opinion, the best lube… is lube. So save your allowance and invest in some soon. Alright, moving on – when you tug your Thomas on the toilet – ffft – shoot right into the bowl. In bed – soft t-shirt, perhaps a downy hand towel of your very own that you don’t mind tossing after tossing. There’s no such thing as polishing the raised scepter of love too much. It reduces stress, it enhances immune function. Also, practice makes perfect. So work on your control now, while you’re a solo artist – you’ll be playing some long, happy duets in the future.
Ok – class dismissed.
[Shane gets up to walk away]
Andy Botwin: Hey!
[tosses Shane a banana]
Andy Botwin: Homework.
New Movies HotOrNot (2006/12/01)
December 2, 2006
I finally saw Casino Royale, and it is as good as people say (except for Eva Green, she was a bit of a mis-cast). Daniel Craig is awesome. Is Layer Cake any good on video?
Deliver Us From Evil – HOT. Chilling documentry against sexual abuse in churches.
All About My Mother – HOT. Pedro Almodóvar month continues at the Bytown.
Little Children – HOT. Anti-suburbia flick where Kate Winslet shows off her weight loss.
The Flower of My Secret – HOT/NOT. More Pedro Almodóvar at Bytown.
Blood Diamond – HOT/NOT. New Dicapro flick set in Africa. Trailer looks good, execution looks so-so.
The Holiday – HOT/NOT. Looks like a decent Xmas chick flick of the same calibur as Love Actually.
Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny – HOT/NOT. Critics hate it, fans love it.
Bobby – NOT. Fictional account of the assassination of Bobby Kenedy written and directed by Emilio Estevez. Do not be fooled by the cast.
National Lampoon’s Van Wilder The Rise of Taj – NOT. Harold and Kumar 2 it is not. Best viewed while drunk on video over pizza.
Turistas – NOT. When has there been a good horror flick in December?
The Nativity Story – NOT. Horrible Christmas crap.

New Movies HotOrNot (2006/11/26)
November 26, 2006
Casino Royale – HOT. Good reviews all around. New guy looks like he has less charm, but more edge.
Little Children – HOT. Anti-suburbia flick where Kate Winslet shows off her weight loss.
Happy Feet – HOT/NOT. March of the Penguins for kids, looks like good reviews all around but adults might find it lacking.
Deja Vu – HOT/NOT. Ridley Scott’s brother and one of the writters from Shrek/Pirates of the Carribean bring Day Break to the big screen. People are calling it formulaic.
For Your Consideration – HOT/NOT. New Christopher Guest satire. Reviewers are saying it is pretty formulaic and too similiar to the rest of his films.
Bobby – HOT/NOT. Fictional account of the assassination of Bobby Kenedy written and directed by Emilio Estevez.
Let’s Go To Prison – HOT/NOT. Like most of Bob Odenkirk’s films, this looks so bad it might be good. I liked Run Ronnie Run because of the stupidy — I am sure I will feel the same about this one. I imagine there will be lots of gay jokes.
Death Race 2000 – HOT/NOT. 1975 bad sci-fi. Throw popcorn at the screen.
Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny – NOT. I think I will really enjoy this on video.
The Fountain – NOT. Darren Aronofsky has not lived up to his debut with Pi and Requiem for a Dream. I still want to see it because it looks like one of those movies I’ll love even if everyone else hates it.
Kika – NOT. 1993 Pedro Almodovar flick.
Sleeping Dogs Lie – NOT. Written and directry by Bob Goldthwait! I did not know he was still alive.
Deck The Halls – NOT. This year’s horrible Christmas movie.
