Elves on strike strike out

I'm sure somebody somewhere thought this was a good idea, but like so many things, it was an idea that should have been quickly forgotten.  I'm talking, of course, about Elf Bowling: The Movie, a computer-generated holiday film from the makers of, well, Elf Bowling: The Movie.  It involves the "real story of Santa" and his brother Dingle (yep, Dingle Kringle), pirates (yes, pirates) who bumble their way to the north pole, and hilarity ensues.  See, eventually, the elves go on strike, Dingle takes charge, and it's up to Santa to, yep, you guessed it, save Christmas.   Read More →

I thought clowns were supposed to be funny

But these clowns are sad. As in, pathetic.   Read More →

Kung fu is like porn

I can't say I've ever been a big fan of the martial arts genre, particularly the Hong Kong films. Much like Godzilla, they have production values and an attitude all their own that can be a little off-putting to those not in on the joke. I've seen some Hong Kong films — yes, even Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon — so I don't want anyone to think I'm dismissing them out of hand. Not at all.   Read More →
