Finally getting excited about 2008…
Not a whole lot has piqued my cinematic interest this year. “The Dark Knight,” “Iron Man” and “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” are the happy pre-festival-season exceptions. But even with Toronto not yielding a whole lot in terms of Oscar frontrunners, I am finding more and more to be excited about in the coming months and expect an intense race for that little golden guy. Here are the six (well, seven…you’ll see) most anticipated of the year for me, at this stage

Review: ‘Eagle Eye’ is for the birds
While the concept behind “Eagle Eye” couldn’t be timelier — two strangers are forced to participate in a vast conspiracy they don’t understand while a network of cell phones and surveillance cameras monitors their progress — the execution redefines ludicrous.What might have been a zeitgeist-fueled paranoid thriller along the lines of “The Conversation” or “Three Days of the Condor” winds up an unintentionally hilarious exercise in the suspension of disbelief, peppered with confusingly ed

Countdown to Season 3 of 'Dexter' Begins

New Live Handsome Furs - "Legal Tender" & "Thy Will Be Done"
About a month ago, Dan Boeckner and Alexei Perry, aka the happily married Handsome Furs, performed two new songs on the University of Minnesota's Radio K. In "Legal Tender," Boeckner tells us "my love is legal tender," but the song's actually pretty good (nice and crunchy). The other track "Thy Will Be Done" is a Bible-referencing, dusky, driving Boeckner-style ballad that's punctuated with, and ends in, blasts of distortion. Watch and listen over at Radio K (via P4K). The duo's still reportedly at work on
