Michael Bay has become Self-Aware
2008-02-16 03:44:00 Not only is the video after the jump another commercial, but it is also from another telecom provider. This time Michael Bay shows he can poke a little fun at himself while also selling out to Verizon's new FiOS. More About: Video , Humor , Film , Dailymotion
Scorsese Directs a Phone Commercial
2008-02-16 03:14:00 The commercial is a good laugh (and after the jump) but do you really think people forget to turn off their cell phones anymore? Do you honestly think that a person forgets that it is not only rude to have it ringing but to answer it and then have a fifteen minute conversation while acting like no one can hear their 'inner voice'?

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull Trailer!
2008-02-14 19:00:00 Right off the bat I was a little worried to hear Bryan Tyler's score to Children of Dune (a great score, but it's not Indy's) which is like hearing Hanz Zimmer music in the trailer for Jaws. It also made me think of National Treasure. Thankfully John Williams takes over and it's a comfort to see his 'Music by' credit at the end.SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull Trailer!", url: "http://www.michaelgorman.net/wp/2008/02/ 14/indiana-jones-and-the-crystal-skull-tr ailer/" }); More About: Video , Film , Indiana Jones , Steven Spielberg

2008-02-14 04:02:00 Behold the Joyride... or the iJoy... or the iJoyride.

Tarkin n Friends
2008-02-11 22:25:00 Don't ask me how I found this on Youtube, but I have to say Will at paraphrasetheater.com has some real comedic chops.

Half Life : Full Life Consequences
2008-02-08 23:58:00 This little fan film is actually an adaptation of who I can only guess is a non-native English speaking writer probably under the age of 13.

Pulse(2006) Review
2008-02-08 08:01:00 Rather than be original in any sense of the world Pulse looks like every other Japanese Horror remake you have ever seen. If you like crap like The Grudge and The Ring, you'll probably like this crap too. Everyone else... watch it if you need a laugh. More About: Film , Review , Wes Craven
Only jocks would consider this science
2008-02-08 02:33:00 I've never seen this program called Sport Science , but after seeing this clip I am under the impression it's Jackass for sports nuts (pun intended). If this guy thought he was doing something in the name of science I have a finger he can pull
Sunshine(2007) Review
2008-02-08 00:02:00 Danny Boyle's Sunshine came onto the scene being heralded as the next 2001 and the new Solaris. Even for the creative tour de force Danny Boyle, those are some downright ridiculous expectations to me. I came into seeing this movie having heard a number of mixed reviews. Sunshine is nothing less than a great film. How someone cannot at least enjoy this film on a human level is beyond me. I can only suppose naysayers of this film also have issue with the presupposition that our rock called Earth rotates and orbits around the Sun and not vice-versa?

Devil May Cry Needs to Install on PS3?!
2008-02-07 23:02:00 From the reviews I have read the install time runs about 22 minutes on your PS3 while if you are running DMC4 on a Xbox 360 your install time is... zip. More About: Humor , Gaming , Rants , Devil , Devil May Cry

Happy New Year!
2008-01-05 00:10:00 So I’m a few days behind. Leave me alone. So the Mrs and myself spent our first Christmas in Toronto , meaning I was also one of those crazed loons who was out at 4am on Boxing day (the closest Canadian equivalent to Black Friday). Not a bad haul either. I came home with a copy ... More About: Personal , Gaming , New Year , Film

Dark Knight Prologue Leaked
2007-12-16 13:40:00 Well if you are at all like myself and can’t stand Will Smith (which looking at this weekend’s box office puts you in a very small majority) you probably won’t see the Joker prologue in front of Imax copies of I Am Legend.

5 Minutes of CloverField
2007-12-14 17:30:00 The folks making Cloverfield are following the latest trend of posting 5-10 minutes from their movies. I have to say I am looking forward to Cloverfield more than any other movie right now. I also think this movie needs to be seen in a theatre. Do you agree? I can’t wait.

More articles from this author:2007-12-12 13:00:00 Remember when McDonalds said they would “ban advertising to children under 12 or limit them to food and snacks that meet certain nutritional guidelines” ?
