“As a person who has spent more man-child-hours contemplating the mighty Marvel master narrative than I care to admit, I am, on paper, exactly the kind of moviegoer who’s supposed to flip out when (for example, and, um, spoiler alert) Jeremy Renner turns up in ‘Thor,’ playing a sniper named Barton who uses a bow and arrow. But if I lost you with everything after the word...

This is a nearly four-minute trailer that tells you way more than you probably want to know about the upcoming sci-fi thriller In Time. If you want to go in spoiler-free, you should know that Andrew Niccol is due for another great movie and my girl Mandy Seyfried looks great with red hair.

"Bullshit Heaven"- Jed Pearl- The New Republic →
Source: You Might Find Yourself “Alexis L.

All Teal Everything →
A friend and I started a new tumblr called All Teal Everything, which is a nostalgia engine for ’90s sports. Because it’s text-free, some of you might even like it more than my loquacious efforts here. If you don’t like sports—or if you were not born some time between 1975 and 1990—thank you for your time. If this does sound like something you would be interested in,...
