It’s You Again, Kristen Bell By Brendon Connelly/April 14, 2009 1:44 pm EST Veronica Mars. Wow. What a show. Shame that there wasn’t enough of you tuning in to keep it on air. Yes, you.

Ebert’s hating, and while I liked Beowulf and eagerly anticipate Avatar, it’s easy to see 3D becoming the Reebok Pump of cinema (again?). Personally, I’m prone to believing the future holds a more participatory creative role for the viewer, one that would leave room for a 3D visceral experience if needed....
