What do I know?
I don’t get it. “The Break-Up” is getting thrashed by critics. Except me. Flimsy as it is, I laughed throughout because Vince Vaughn leaves his weird, manic mark all over the film.
Now I look at Rotten Tomatoes, where it has a 0 percent rating, meaning the six critics who have so far weighed in hated it.
Now I don’t feel so good.
Entertainment Weekly promises a surprise gift when you renew your subscription. Mine arrived today. It’s the special edition DVD of “Spider-Man.” Cool. But it’s full-screen, not letterbox. Not cool. Thanks, EW. For nothing.
This one time, at movie camp …
— There’s still time to get your aspiring young filmmakers into Austin Film Festival Cinema/ Television Summer Camp. The courses are for students ages 9 to 17. For more information, visit the festival’s Web site.
— The “Snakes on a Plane” official site is here. And so is the site for “Pirates of the Caribbean II.”
— “Evil Bong.” Yes, really.
— Well, this is a shame. We like Victor Nunez.
— We’re late in finding this, but it’s the funniest thing we’ve seen in a while. What ON EARTH could Richard Linklater’s gesture mean?
