Screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson had a big hit with Secretary in 2002. Well, maybe not a hit in the commercial sense, but definitely in the cultural sense; it's a film that people still talk about, and which will likely continue to have a real presence for years to come. But Wilson hasn't had a great many produced credits since then. Maybe her profile will rise once again thanks to Oprah and Harpo...

This past Saturday was Designer Con 2009 in Pasadena, where toys, art, a lot of Japanese anime influence, and a distinct smell of BO (c’mon boys, hygiene is not hard) converged. There were plenty of pretty rad vinyl toys, super kawaaii t-shirts and posters, and I was super excited about checking out Christopher Lee’s new [...]
It's ironic that Steven Soderbergh's new film should be called The Informant!, given that the director's primary tactic is to keep the audience as ill-informed as possible.
Apologies for the late-ish notice, but heads up if your afternoon is free: Designer Con 2009 is up and running until 5pm today at the Pasadena Convention Center.

Here's the trailer for the upcoming Nic Cage flick SEASON OF THE WITCH. The verdict? Um, it's got Christopher Lee and Ron Perlman in it... Honestly, it reminds me of the B movies I used to see on the shelf at Blockbuster. This just does nothing for me, and even though they used "Long Hard Road Out of Hell" by Marilyn Manson in the trailer, it still doesn't work. Maybe I'm just judging it...
