» Blood into Wine - Any big fan of Maynard James Keenan knows that the Tool/A Perfect Circle/Puscifer frontman has been living a double life for the past several years as a winemaker/entrepreneur. But seeing as the charismatic Keenan is not the most media-friendly of musicians, it's a rare feat to get an in-depth glimpse into what the man's other passion project entails.[08.26.2010 by Kiran Aditham]
LITERATURE
» The Red Queen - Phillipa Gregory revisits England during the War of the Roses.[08.23.2010 by Bridget Doyle]

» Missed the Boat #6: Supergroups and Solo Surprises - In a time when more albums than ever are being made and fewer publications can afford to exist, more gatekeepers than ever are needed to separate the wheat from the chaff.

CINEMA
» Micmacs - French director Jean-Pierre Jeunet has made a career out of playfulness. His oeuvre consists of visual spectacles that childishly and beautifully grapple with universal themes of love, death, and redemption, all the while remaining hyper-aware that they exist within the medium of film.[07.08.2010 by Jonah Flicker]
CINEMA
» Trash Humpers - Harmony Korine, the B-List Spike Jonze, will be on hand to open his latest film at Los Angeles' NuArt Theatre tonight. If you enjoyed Korine's bizarre past work, you're in for a treat. You're probably also retarded. This time around people actually have sex with garbage.[05.14.2010 by Eric J Herboth]
CINEMA
» The Ghost Writer - Pierce Brosnan does his best Tony Blair grin in Roman Polanski's first post-extradition film, "a thriller with topical ambitions: it takes place in a jittery, bomb-fearing Britain and America, where the weary rituals of security screenings refuse to let the characters or the audience relax."[03.09.2010 by Theon Weber]
CINEMA
» A Million In the Morning - "A documentary about a Movie Watching World Championship wherein Richard Simmons was abused, a guy hallucinated a beagle crawling up a plant, a bunny head was used as a weapon 78 times, and the guys who made it got fired."[01.22.2010 by Eric J Herboth]
CINEMA
» Red Cliff - Flaming arrows, gunpowder and catapulting bombs? Check. Hand-to-hand combat? Check. Ridiculous swordfights, extreme horseback riding, and biological warfare? Check. This massive historical epic from John Woo has great parts, but it all adds up to a lackluster sum.[11.24.2009 by Jonah Flicker]
