I know we haven’t been posting many “music” related news in the past few month, but I thought this one was of note. Jimmy Eat World recently completed a 10 city tour marking the 10th anniversary of the release of their ‘Clarity,’ record, an album some consider to be among their best. On the last …
The poster for the new Richard Kelly movie, (he’s the guy who made “Donnie Darko,” and “Southland Tales,) “The Box” has been released. I don’t know much about this one other than it stars Cameron Diaz, is some sort of a thriller, and it was shot in Boston. The poster really doesn’t give you much …

Ray Koval and Claire Steinwick are industrial spies. But they’re spying for different companies. But they knew each other before. In fact, they spent a romantic weekend in Rome once. Not that Claire will admit it. Ray sees her walking through Grand Central Station in New York and follows her to a bar. He …
Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest assault on the unsuspecting is coming this summer. 30 minutes were screened at the SXSW Film Festival and the reports coming out of there said it is funnier than “Borat.” (Which was, in my opinion, pretty damn funny.) Well, the trailer for his latest film, “Bruno,” has been released at MySpace’s …
