http://www.entertainmentbuff.com All things entertainment Thu, 24 Jul 2008 17:00:03 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I went to see "The Dark Knight" a third time last night at the AMC Burbank 16. On Wednesdays, the theater chain offers free popcorn with your ticket purchase; fun fact: due to some technical glitch at the kiosk where I bought my ticket, I didn't get a coupon for ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/hsm-bdsm/ I touched on this show last week, mainly drooling over the star, button-cute Ashley Scott. I've since powered through all twelve episodes, and what follows is my take on the show, including the other exorbitantly hot female lead, Dina Meyer. "Birds of Prey" started out as a DC Comics series that ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/birds-of-prey-dvd-review/ Roger Ebert gives star ratings in his Chicago Sun-Times movie reviews. He's famous for the "thumbs-up"/"thumbs-down" shorthand he developed with the late Gene Siskel back in 1975 when their "Sneak Previews" PBS series first launched. So how do his star ratings translate to the up or down positioning of his ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/ebert-and-roeper-quit/ The first time I saw "Clerks" was when I was 15. A high school buddy and I had rented it on a whim, not really knowing what it was. Indie movies played at some of the art houses in Seattle, but we lived in the suburbs, a million miles away. ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/zack-and-miri-make-an-nc-17/ This review is lousy with spoilers. You might want to watch the movie before reading on. "The Dark Knight" doesn't give everything away in the trailer. These days, it seems like you go to the movies just to fill in the blanks between the money shots you've seen over and over ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/the-dark-knight-spoilers/ I stumbled upon this MTV interview with Val Kilmer about "The Dark Knight." It's fairly short, but extremely uncomfortable to watch. At first, Kilmer seems a little astonished by the fact that there's another bat-film. Or maybe he's confused that the interviewer's asking him about a film he's not in. Kilmer's ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/bat-nipples/ One thing that used to really irritate me when I worked at a movie house was how customers -- I'll never call them the euphemism "guests," since I never invited them -- seemed to be extremely conflicted about what to buy from the concession stand. More than likely, whatever goodies ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/have-ourselves-a-snack/ The following review is spoiler-free. Before the movie even started last night, I was already thinking about my review. How would I make it different from all the other reactions to this, clearly the most talked-about movie of the year? Unless I wound up hating it, I began to fear that ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/the-dark-knight-review/ If you haven't read Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' doubleplusgood graphic novel, the trailer for the film version of "Watchmen" might seem a little esoteric. The book in and of itself is just so loaded with ideas and imagination, squeezing selected images from it into a two-minute trailer simply doesn't ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/watchmen-trailer/ "Birds of Prey" -- the short-lived WB series loosely based on the DC comic book -- hit DVD earlier this week. I remember watching the first few of episodes back in 2002 during the one and only month that pissed away money on cable TV; I chalk that up to ... http://www.entertainmentbuff.com/ashley-scott/
