Love Your Movies, which had the sagacity and good taste to like my post from yesterday, has an exhaustive and mostly truth-telling list of what Hollywood is throwing at us this solstice: Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. I actually think this will do pretty well. It will bring in the Zombieland audience — people who like… Read More The Summer Blockbusters Will Bust the Blocks. In Summer.
It’s such fun to declare that the Gods are in twilight; you gain the status of a bold truth-teller even if your prediction’s flat-out wrong.
