I promise to offer more insight on the new trailer for “The Avengers” soon, as I have a big feature going up on IFC.com this afternoon that takes a deep dive into the footage. Until then, feel free to watch it a few dozen times… because that’s what I’m doing. Anyone else starting to feel [...]

Marvel released a new poster for “The Avengers” today, and there’s a part of me that wants to believe it’s a brilliant in-joke for the comics community. Here’s why I say that: Late last year, a promo image for “The Avengers” was released that featured all six members of the team posing for a big [...]

This feature ran on IFC.com while I was on vacation, so I’m finally getting around to posting an excerpt now. As part of the lead-up to the premiere of “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance” (which I thoroughly enjoyed — suck it, haters!) I put together a list of my favorite 10 vehicles from comic book [...]
Gotye’s stop-motion “Easy Way Out” video is pretty amazing.

Maybe I’m not a cruise person.

I’m back! The headline of this post says it all, really — and has become my go-to response when people ask me what I thought of my first cruise-ship experience. Don’t get me wrong — cruises might provide the perfect vacation for a great number of people, and given the multitude of different types of [...]
