Gwyneth Paltrow Gets Kinky In Iron Man 2? By Brendon Connelly/May 3, 2009 2:02 am EST If there’s one thing you need to know about ‘certain’ British newspapers its that they like their sources anonymous and, at least half of the time I suspect, completely non existent. Bear that in mind as you consider this oddity from The Daily Mail – even though this one actually seems to have some basis in reality to me....

Iron Man Is The Best Reviewed Movie Of 2008 By Peter Sciretta/May 2, 2008 2:29 am EST Iron Man is not only a great comic book movie, but it’s a great film.

Netflix To Stream Early Seasons Of Lost And Other ABC Shows By Devindra Hardawar/Aug. 3, 2009 8:35 am EST From the press release: While the interface could use some work, I appreciate how easy it is to get Netflix streaming content to my television. Without it, I would have never seen the excellent first season of Party Down, which had new episodes available for streaming as the series aired. I can only hope that the big networks get over their fears of having Hulu content available on our TVs as well....

Paul Reubens Talks Todd Solondz Life During Wartime

Paul Reubens Talks Todd Solondz’ Life During Wartime By Peter Sciretta/Jan. 3, 2008 2:07 pm EST I lost interest in Todd Solondz sometime around Storytelling. Welcome to the Dollhouse was such a wonderful but painfully examination honest look at adolescence and Happiness was so disturbing, yet compelling. His later work seemed to lack heart, and serve only to shock. When Solondz’ newest film Life During Wartime was announced almost two years ago, I didn’t pay much attention....

I know this because super uber designer Marc Ecko is releasing a licensed Star Wars designed limited edition collection of apparel....

Shutter Island Movie Trailer #3: Now With More Pulp! By Russ Fischer/Oct. 28, 2009 6:39 am EST No, this new Shutter Island trailer doesn’t feature Jarvis Cocker. What it does do is recut much of the footage we’ve already seen with a bit of new stuff, and the overall effect is: “hey, remember me? Haven’t come out yet!
