    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    The film was far too dark for the 3D to be effective.

    jurasic park4 announced by spielberg

    The worst thing about this announcement is that Joe Johnston, JP3's director, was talking about it only a few days ago. He's "got a few ideas" which can only mean he's lobbying to direct the next instalment. Steven Spielberg hasn't made a good movie since JP1/Schindler's List so it's not like...

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    Er, I was sitting in the garden drinking tea today too, taking gentle sips as I read. I even had it in a pot. Regardless, all other points stand.

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    And I think what's worse, truly worse, is that they ruined Harry and Voldemort's final confrontation in the Great Hall. By, uh, not doing it. I was reading an interview with Yates yesterday (I can't remember where, I'm afraid) where he spoke of sitting in his garden, sipping tea (how quaintly...

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    No it did not. DH was broken in a lot of places structurally (the camping, Snape's demise/memory reveal etc.), but we're not dealing with a book here. We are dealing with a movie.

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    Except it's not, at all. There's no weight to this final confrontation between good and evil, with the freedom of the wizarding (and muggle, I guess) world hanging in the balance. It's fizzled through without a sense of pace, just as the events of the last four movies have been since Newell and...

    'The Dark Knight Rises'

    Although given how dark his face is, I suspect he's wearing a mask. That said, I'd love for Wayne to reveal himself to Gordon.

    Deus Ex Human Revolution

    You're getting your hopes up for a game that has no chance of delivering.

    Anyone considering not supporting Obama in 2012?

    Why do people like Ron Paul? And is Palin actually a candidate now?

    The Hobbit - Part 1

    It's quite promising to see so much passion and love being poured into the production, from the director, through to the cast and down to the crew - it bodes well for two very good films. **** YEAH.

    The Hobbit - Part 1

    I haven't been following filming at all, but am I right in guessing they're filming at Pinewood to save Christopher Lee the effort of travelling to New Zealand?

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    Didn't she only give Dumbledore depth in the final book, though? According to Snape's wikipedia page she has called him a "give of a character". Fair enough, I won't deny liking Snape. But that's pretty much because he's your only character with dimension.

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    I don't think that's true. Rowling has said on a few occasions that the epilogue is something she'd had written for several years prior to DH. But then, that's just "according" to Samon, whose word, apparently, is as trustworthy as your girlfriend's. How does that grab you.

    Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows

    I think that's a fair assessment yes. On a more serious note, all of that's true except for the 'making a big deal' (mostly because the cinema was packed with legions of Potter fans, all of which sniffed and snuffled their way through the film's more emotional sequences). I wasn't interested in...

    New trailer for The Thing Prequel: Animatronic Monsters and No Norwegian

    Putting aside the fact that this "prequel" should not exist, this trailer was balls. It's essentially Carpenter's masterpiece again but a whole lot shittier in every regard - recycled scenes and cornball explanatory dialogue.
