Re: VERY HIGHBROW: Old NYC: New York's Past via Eighty Thousand Photos

If you haven't been yet, the Museum of the City (http://www.mcny.org/) has a lot of fascinating stuff in this vein. Worth a visit at some point.

This clip ran before the start of the movie when I saw it. Was that not the case for everyone else?

Re: VERY HIGHBROW: Apartment Hunting in New York City

My favorite was an otherwise spacious 1-bedroom that had its bathtub in a corner of the kitchen. And, as can happen with that very specific kind of mania that creeps up on you after extended New York apartment hunting, I was totally convinced it could work.

Florence's "Cosmic Love" is my favorite, although "Never Let Me Go" has been gunnin' pretty hard for the title as of late.

Re: Arnold Schwarzenegger Is Expendable!

Another update. Looks like Arnold's involvement depends on how things go with his day job--running the state of California. If California's economic woes are miraculously fixed and Arnold has some time, he'll appear in the film. If not, he won't. Ain't It Cool has the story here: http://www.aintitcool.com/n...

I know I shouldn't be talking with my history of using plainly cropped pictures to accompany the articles, but...

Really? This thing is lame.

I want to just add that the arrangement of George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" played during the "Heart" commercial was actually a duet by two of the greatest piano players of our era--Herbie Hancock (jazz legend and the guy who beat out Kanye for Record of the Year at last year's Grammy's) and Lang Lang (Chinese piano prodigy who played with Hancock at the Grammy's and also the guy playing piano during the Opening Ceremony of last Summer's Beijing Olympics). Check out the video of them recording together here: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Thanks for the tip, Ish; we must've missed this one when it first broke.

And yeah, Variety/THR have a nasty habit of not giving due credit to internet news sites. It's a real shame and kind of disappointing to see.

Couldn't find the video for this until now, but another highlight of the night: Darren Aronofsky flipping Mickey Rourke off on live TV. http://www.liveleak.com/vie...

Re: Franklyn Trailer Is Strange And Wonderful!

All the sites I'm coming across (IMDb, Wikipedia, AICN, IGN, etc.) are reporting it as February 20th (except for /film, which reported it as Jan. 30th, though their article was written back in mid-October). And Jan. 20th is a Tuesday. I'm not entirely familiar with release schedules in the U.K., but going off American standards, this would lead me to believe that Feb. 20th is a more likely date. We'll keep digging though, and update you if we find out anything different.
