'Shindig'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Ha. I just got the weekly EW mail, and it has these two teaser reviews:
The American George Clooney's assassin-abroad thriller gets off to a good start, but turns into an arty, meandering slog C
Machete This Mexploitation action flick ain't perfect, but at least it's not an arty, meandering slog B
I hope the success of Machete leads to Werewolf Women of the SS getting made.
I just saw the trailer for Machete. Holy shit. I am tempted! It looks completely beyond the pale.

If it's the trailer from Grindhouse, not everything there is in the movie.
There's an actual trailer [link]
For several years now, Point Blank and Deliverance director John Boorman has been working on a CG animated retelling of The Wizard of Oz. Here’s a video of a render test that has been carried out.
No word if Sean Connery will appear wearing a thong in this version.
I had intended to see Machete anyway thanks to the ridiculousness of its Grindhouse trailer, but even if I knew nothing about it the recent real trailer showing Cheech Marin as a priest wielding a shotgun in each hand would have sold me.
I could swear I remember that from the first trailer.
