Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012) – So I’ve enjoyed the Ice Age franchise well enough, but I can’t say it grabbed me the same way more of Dreamworks’s stuff has, and nowhere near on the level of Pixar’s stuff.

I realized this though as the Emmys were already in progress and I had been drinking (I started to sober up somewhere around the Drama categories). These are my meandering real-time thoughts as I watched the broadcast. … Continue reading →

There’s nothing totally wrong wrong with going Hollywood except those were by … Continue reading →

The Station Agent (2003) — So in two days and two movies, Tom McCarthy has become one of my favorite writer-directors. Well done, sir. This is as good a movie about friendship as I have ever seen.
