Wait, there's a current Jesse romance? How do I miss these things? Why don't you keep me updated on the important stuff?
It's not exactly a brand new romance. I hesitate to post about the details of Jesse's life without her go ahead.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

There were no details!
Jesse, I will edit my commentary to nothingness if you'd prefer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yup. Cat's out of the bag. Jesse's getting it on with the Lone Ranger.

We thought it was all about the hat, but as it turns out, it was really the mask.

I'm pretty fond of Hoberman, too. I figure that movie critics are exposed to infinitely more movies than I am in any given year, and I can use their championing of indie or limited-release foreign flix to bolster my Netflix queue.
Also, I don't give much of a damn about most Hollywood movies, anyway.

This must be how rumors get started, because I heard it was Tonto.

Interesting observations about the changing film biz in Salon.
While some distributors, including Zeitgeist (says Gerstman), remain committed to theatrical release as the core of their business, and the moviegoing experience isn't going to disappear this year or next, the way movies get delivered to eyeballs is clearly changing, and changing fast. "There's no distribution company in the business that's making money off theatrical release," says IFC's Werner. "It's all publicity for the DVD."
Sasha Berman echoes him, saying, "You use theatrical release as a platform, and just write it off as marketing dollars for the DVD release. You need those [review] quotes and some word of mouth, some awareness of the title." Releasing a movie straight to DVD, without the review quotes or the New York/L.A. word of mouth, she adds, is "throwing your money away." But over the long haul (possibly as long as seven to 10 years), the DVD release gives independent distributors a fighting chance to turn a hit into a cult phenomenon, and a flop into a break-even proposition.
