In 2007, culture as we know it diverged into two categories. For the rest of recorded history, there will be an earlier time bee movie (“BBM”) and the next time Bee movie. It’s hard to believe we’ve already celebrated 15 years since that day – November 2, 2007 – when Jerry Seinfeld and DreamWorks Animation debuted magnum opus. A decade and a half ago, Renee Zellweger considered a scenario in which she plays a woman who falls in love with Jerry Seinfeld as a bee and said, “Sure, why not!”…

From the singularity of its spiky-toothed rod shape, to the roar of its draw-cord-smoke, smoke-spewing engine, to the gruesome damage it does, the saw is a weapon like no other.

“Unicorn Wars” is a super violent tale against the war of bears and unicorns

admin

Great and rare pleasure comes in a critic’s life when the movie that originally bothered you slowly but surely begins to reclaim a bit of space in your mind, carving out a space in which you can almost objectively see it with your eyes, and finally winning its case. This was this reviewer’s experience watching the animated movie unicorn warswhose tooth-grinding hypothesis (a species of teddy bear for the war against forest-dwelling rhinos) soon gives way to a harrowing, fun record, and its graceful animation reveals what seemed like a…

Like most Americans, I use my friend Brendan’s HBO Max account. One day he sent me a message, shocked and befuddled. “Corbin,” he said, “Were you watching Rick and Morty on my account?” What was I supposed to say? “No, it just autoplayed Rick and Morty after I was done watching Tokyo Story?” I was caught. Brendan, who once had nothing but respect and admiration for me, now knew my dirty little secret: I was a Rick and Morty Guy. I hoped to keep my dirty, shameful secret from spreading…

“We all have our own demons,” says Danny DeVito. The beloved actor, director, and trollfoot-owner, who will turn 78 in November, has been entertaining audiences for the past six decades.
