6:04AM Brian Moylan | We’ve read a lot of reviews of the new Tarantino movie, but our favourite so far came out today in Tablet. Basically it says the new movie would be better if Tarantino was Jewish. More »

How Violently Does G.I. Joe Suck?
1:30AM Foster Kamer | G.I. Joe wasn’t screened for critics because Paramount wanted to market the movie to Middle Amerikkka without being judged. Critical reviews are finally coming in. They’re going to be bad, it’s just a matter of how bad. And how bad? More »

10:22AM Jess McGuire | Do you know what Pitchfork is? It is a magical website where music is reviewed within a decimal point of its life. If the review is good, bands try to mention this fact on the cover of their latest release by helpfully placing a sticker on the cover of the CD which quotes the review. If the review is bad, bands try to hide their hurt. Something Jet must have done when Pitchfork’s review of Jet’s second album was simply a YouTube video of a monkey pissing in its own mouth.

Watchmen Reviews: ‘Maybe It’s Better to Grow Up’
8:21AM Defamer Hollywood | So how is this biggest-movie-ever Watchmen superhero flick? Well, not so good if many critics are to be believed. Should have been kept in holy reverence as a comic book (or graphic novel or whatever).
