Looks like there’s at least one guy out there who still refuses to let FOX kill one of our favorite shows, but don’t expect this snazzy fan art to stir a revolution. Still, it’s pretty to look at and will make for a nice desktop wallpaper. Click here for the full image.
… because I can’t seem to figure out what kind of actor he’s supposed to be these days. Is he the cooky comedian from the 80’s, the family film guy from the 90’s, or the edgy thesp from the new millenium? His most recent film roles have pointed toward the latter, but if this is true, then why in God’s name is he doing a movie like “RV“?
Going to see this movie could easily be the biggest waste of time of the entire year, unless, of course, you decide to see the “Bring It On” clone “Stick It” the next day. Spend your time seeing much richer films like “Akeelah and the Bee” and “United 93,” or better yet, find the closest theater screening “Hard Candy.” You won’t regret it.
Out on DVD this week:
1) Aeon Flux – PASS: When a studio doesn’t want a new film to be reviewed the weekend of its release, they’ll typically screen it for critics on Thursday at 7:00. This movie was screened at 10:00. Any questions?
2) Casanova – RENT: Billed as a comedy, I don’t remember laughing a single time throughout the length of this period piece. Then again, resident BE critic David Medsker loved it, so I have to imagine someone else will too.
3) Shopgirl – PASS: Disappointment doesn’t even begin to explain my feelings for this film, but if you must see it because you read the book, then don’t say I didn’t warn you.
4) Match Point – RENT: I haven’t had a chance to see this one yet, but if the award buzz is any indication, this is one to definitely check out. The lack of any special features turns off to a purchase, however, no matter how good the film is.
5) Tristan + Isolde – PASS: Do you really need a reason not to see this movie?
Also out this week are quite a few special editions, including new releases for “The Wedding Singer,” “The Patriot,” “Windtalkers” and “The Replacement Killers,” as well as the first season of “American Dad” and the Final Fantasy VII film “Advent Children.”
I’m not really sure how long this has been up on the ol’ Information Superhighway, but Liquid Generation has taken a comical stab at the whole Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes Scientologish baby debacle. It features John Travolta in full “Battlefield: Earth” gear and a baby alien dancing to “Thriller.” Click below to watch the short video.

It’s been a long time coming for moviegoers to witness the next great class of comedies, but with any luck 2006 might just be our year. Following on the heels of last month’s political satire “Thank You For Smoking,” the pop culture satire “American Dreamz” delivers another dead-on pop shot at the state of this country.
Of course, you could always go see Jack save the world (again) in “The Sentinel,” or experience the cinematic destruction of another classic video game with Roger Avary’s “Silent Hill,” but why bother? “American Dreamz” is the kind of film just about anybody could enjoy, and you will… immensely. Let’s just say that I’m already counting the days ’til this hits DVD.
