Today’s filmgoers say they want more cerebral science fiction films, and some moviemakers make an effort to comply. This year’s Arrival is quite ambitious, and last year’s Ex Machina is as good as any sci-fi movie since 2001.
But back in the 1950s producers quickly discovered that the audience wanted little more than monsters and mounting disaster in their sci-fi. Although some wonderful work snuck through, killer robots and alien invaders became the norm. From the 1970s forward, even with Stanley Kubrick aboard,...

[Update: Find Stefon's very last club -- sob! -- at the end of the post.]
Here’s what we know about tweaky club kid Stefon Zelesky, by far Bill Hader’s most popular SNL character: He used to write for Smash. His dad is David Bowie. His brother is Ben Affleck (a.k.a. “David”). He lives in a trash can near the Radio Shack on 23rd St. and 7th Ave. He’s in love with Seth Meyers. And he’s got an encyclopedic knowledge of New York’s hottest clubs, from Scampi (“illegally parked behind the Statue of Liberty”) to Spicy (“the creation of club owner/rabbi Jew Diamond Phillips”) to Selfieee! (“based on...

I loved Maya Rudolph on last week’s SNL. I especially loved this skit, I’m just a sucker for skits that crack up the actors, especially Kristen Wigg and Bill Hader who almost never break character.
This is an actual ad for an Australian college. It’s also kind of brilliant and nightmare inducing. Judging by the million plus views, it’s very popular.

I fell in love with this web comic by the Rose City Roller’s Winnie the Pow. The drawings are some of the best I’ve seen in an online comic.

In case you didn’t know, today – February 2nd – is Groundhog Day. And to celebrate the momentous American holiday that inspired the bloody brilliant Bill Murray film of the same name, we’re going to answer one of the most asked questions in cinematic history.
Just how many days does Phil Connors spend trapped in the perpetual loop of Groundhog Day?
Okay, so director Harold Ramis has sort of already answered it on the DVD commentary of the film (10 years he reckoned) and then later, in response to several sites online running an article that came to an answer of just 8 years, 8 months, and 16 days, he offered the following (seemingly contradicting his own bloody answer in the process!):
I think the 10-year estimate is too short. It takes at least 10 years to get good at anything, and alloting for the down time and misguided years he spent, it had...

David Rambo's play The Ice-Breaker, currently running at Theatre 40 in Los Angeles, revolves in part around the evocative fact that polar ice preserves the climate memory of the world. Drill just a bit into the largest glacier and you're into the time of the American Civil War. Drill further and you're at the dawn of man. As a character says in the play, "We can drill two miles deep, and a hundred-and-ten-thousand years back. We analyze isotopes from Mozart's air and Plato's oxygen." The science of ice memory provides the backdrop, and a reflection, for the two-character relationship at the heart of The Ice-Breaker. Sonia Milan (played in this production by Ashleigh Sumner) is a doctorate student in climatology, who is finishing her thesis. She has traveled out to the Arizona desert to find the reclusive fiftysomething Dr. Lawrence Blanchard (played by Robert Mackenzie...
