Now that the establishment’s favorite comedian, Jon Stewart, has the state-sanctioned approval of no less than the President of the United States for his upcoming “Mock-The-People” rally on October 30th, it only makes sense that Comedy Central’s state-enamored sister company,

#23: The Others (2001) I’m not sure which I admire most about writer/director Alejandro Amenábar’s beautifully crafted haunted house spooker, how well he executes the ingenious concept of telling his story from the point of view of ghosts who don’t

If I were a hardcore Leftist like Salon’s Andrew O’Hehir, I’d be a little freaked out over what I’m seeing in Hollywood these days, as well. Every smurf-less left-wing film released over the last few years has not only failed

The hardest part of compiling this list was in trying to define what does and does not qualify as a horror picture. Most every definition out there has a slippery slope that can lead to all kinds of similarly-plotted films

Only two days on the air and already it appears as though CNN’s “Parker Spitzer” is going for a perfect record when it comes to inviting Elite Hollywoodists on to savage Sarah Palin. Last night it was Aaron Sorkin —

Some very (to say the least) encouraging news from filmdom broke yesterday: “300” director Zack Snyder will direct the new Superman film for Warner Bros., and as we already knew, “Dark Knight” director Christopher Nolan will oversee the reboot as

What terrible news. Stephen J. Cannell was only 69 years old. For those of you who might not know the Emmy Award-winner by name, you’ll most certainly recognize him through his immortal work as the prolific creator/producer/writer of some of

Funny or Die. In this particular “Die,” how many minds do you think these hipster Hollywood snobs think they’re going to change with such an insufferably smug approach? No one in this video is attempting to appeal to anyone’s better

Any comedian who professes to Speak! Truthiness! To! Power! would have the dignity to be embarrassed over an endorsement from a sitting president. But Jon Stewart is no comedian. Oh, he’s plenty funny, but let’s be honest here — Stewart’s

Remember when American comedians went after the powerful in an effort to bring them down to earth with the sharp satire of accountability? Today, they appear to only protect the powerful. Well, unless the powerful aren’t liberal enough. As things
