Review: ‘Super 8′

The idea of a period movie isn’t anything new. In that regard, “Super 8″ doesn’t break any new ground. Instead, director/writer J.J. Abrams has created this: Period film making.

New ‘Super 8′ Trailer Shows Signs Of Greatness

Note to trailer editors/creators: Watch this new trailer for “Super 8″ and take several notes as this is exactly how it is done. It takes a lot for me to get giddy over a trailer and this one has pulled it off as I’ve watched it twice in five minutes this morning. It has almost [...]

[LOST] Emerson: DVD Viewers Will Get More Hurley And Ben

I suppose I should put a nice little SPOILER ALERT tag on this, as there are still people who haven’t seen the “Lost” series finale. Get thee to Hulu, watch the damned thing, then come find out what other tidbits Darlton have in store for fans. One of the great bits revealed in the finale [...]

[LOST RECAP] ‘The End,’ Or: Huh.

This was a very long episode, and this is going to be a pretty rough recap. If you just want answers, skip to the end. My feelings will be a little hurt that you didn’t read my oh-so-carefully spurted words, but you can always go back and read the whole thing when you’re ready to [...]

[LOST PREVIEW] ‘What They Died For’

Previously, on “Lost”: Darlton – “So, you want Jacob’s back story, huh? Get a load of this!” Audience – “Wait, that’s not what we were expecting!” Darlton – “Wheeeeee!” This week, we get down to the real endgame, as Jack, Sawyer, Hurley and Kate recover from the Big Sub Boom in the ominously-titled “What They [...]

[LOST RECAP] ‘Across the Sea,’ Or: Same Old Story

You guys, I have no idea how to recap this one. I’m still not sure how they managed to make it into a whole hour-long episode. It was short on plot, and while it delivered answers, it was nothing that couldn’t have been accomplished in three minutes of NotLocke soliloquy. But I’ll try, because I [...]
