Stardust may not be out yet, but it’s certainly getting its share of hype. It’s currently getting a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes (from only five reviews, granted) but Neil Gaiman is everywhere.

Star Wars covers the spectrum for Kiwis

June 14th, 2007 by Dunc · Comments Off

New Zealanders choose their favorite and most hated movies – and Star Wars makes both lists. On the high end, A New Hope comes in at #2, beating Pulp Fiction and locally-filmed Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. On the low end, The Phantom Menace eeks in at #10, just below Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. But I wouldn’t get too worked up – the most-hated film is Titanic.

Video Monday

April 16th, 2007 by Dunc · Comments Off

Calls for Cthulhu! This is the best video ever. At least for today. (via SF Signal, which links to more!)

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End clips. I love his pies. (Thanks, Yav!)

Your Lightsaber and You has been around a while – there’s even a sequel – but I hadn’t run across it until recently.

We can have a good time, can’t we?
