I’m falling, falling, falling, might as well fall in

Posted on October 10, 2011 by Neon Apologist

I saw James Blake in concert last night, and I just want to confirm that he is, indeed, totally the best. It was a really fantastic show. I don’t quite know what I was expecting, but there was much more … Continue reading →

Posted on April 26, 2011 by Neon Apologist

How a movie star is born…or not

Posted on March 11, 2011 by Neon Apologist

I’m always kind of interested in how people become “stars,” whatever you take that to mean. And the nerdier I get about the pop culture machines (i.e. the more I read the Hollywood Reporter), the more I can sort of … Continue reading →

The obligatory post-Oscars post

Posted on February 28, 2011 by Neon Apologist

Snow White and the multiple adaptations

Posted on February 24, 2011 by Neon Apologist

They even have the same initials…

Posted on February 9, 2011 by Neon Apologist

The Hollywood Reporter, which I’m still getting, despite the fact that my free ‘three month mini-subscription’ started in October, is reporting this: Adam Sandler will be playing Andy Samberg’s dad in a movie called I Hate You, Dad, which has … Continue reading →

Things to be excited about: Is 2011 gonna suck? edition

Posted on January 31, 2011 by Neon Apologist
