Final Girl an exorcism movie flowchart. Hilarious even if you're not a horror fan.
Journalistic Skepticism I
love this. "25 Most Optimum Film Residences". I think I'm going to go with the Pink Palace Apartments (as long as it comes with the cat), Howards End or Erica's Beach House from
Something's Gotta Give (Nancy Meyers movies
are real estate porn.)

Hollywood Reporter Actress Cammie Conlon (famously known as "Bonnie Blue Butler" in
Gone With the Wind) has died. RIP
Greenbriar Picture Show "Fairy Dust Blown Off..." on the appeal and arguable repeal of Audrey Hepburn.
Just Jared Karl June on the set of the new Hugh Jackman picture
Real Steel. I didn't know they were filming in Detroit. This means that right now as I type this, Hugh is wandering around my home state!
MNPP Another convert to
Animal Kingdom. Let's hope the Aussie flick keeps building.
I Need My Fix Lindsay Lohan goes to the movies. Like this blog, I think this is a step in the right direction. But I still have a concern:
which movie? Cuz, that's an important thing to know.

And over at
Serious Film a question: "How about a little fire, scarecrow?" Have you ever noticed this bit in
The Wizard of Oz? On a related side note I would like to note that Michael who runs Serious Film will be joining the Film Experience team this week with a new weekly column I think you'll enjoy. Welcome, Michael!
One more to go...
Disney Pixar has released several production images from the abandoned Pixar film
Newt (
2011). They look beautiful, no surprise. I realize that everyone thinks Pixar is infallible but something tells me it's downhill from
Toy Story 3. The recent abandoning of original projects like this coupled with a new focus on sequels no one needs (
Cars, Monsters Inc and the inevitable
Toy Story 4) suggests to me... well, it isn't good omens. It just feels reminiscent of how every other studio behaves. And no other studio is as consistently grand as Pixar ... so why should Pixar start emulating the others?
