Cute, a riff on Blade Runner. Just give me the old, manic Lister back.

Fanboys
Sweet little homage to all things Star Wars. Trekkies: avoid.

Pushing Daisies: Season 2
The funniest part of the entire show was the smooch between Anna Friel and Lee Pace at Comic-Con.

Every Little Step
Even if this wasn't a nigh perfect doc, I would still love it. I was addicted to this music as a child.

Ratatouille
Probably the only Pixar film wholly intended for adults, not kids.

I've Loved You So Long
Unfortunately, the reveal is obvious from the beginning. What else could it have been?

Duplicity
No, no, no! Finish the movie with the zoom-in on the ceiling behind Clive Owen. Sigh.

Life: Season 2
I'm gonna miss the three faces of Charlie Crews: silly, adroit and terrifying.

The Duchess
The real Duchess of Devonshire was needy, greedy and a bulimic. Where's that in this portrayal?

Drag Me to Hell
Raimi's genius is in the small stuff, like the squeak of Alison Lohman's forehead against the windshield. Plus that ending-- yes!

Defiance
Tired of Hollywood movies that give you one truly good scene: the rabbi asking God to take his blessing away from the Jews.

London to Brighton
No matter what the situation, a Brit is legally obligated to ask you if you'd "like a cup o' tea, luv?"

Doctor Who: Season 5
Actual real, live jokes! Bad ones, but at least something to relieve the early 60s tedium.

Life: Season 1
There's something vaguely off about the series, even with Damian Lewis more than pulling his weight.
