It’s difficult enough to develop compassion for cinematic characters in the long form. It takes the combined effort of cast, crew and a little of that old movie magic to create enduring feelings for fictional creations. So naturally, turning a film into a series of short jokes creates hurdles. The episodic elements break down the continuity that carries the audience from start to finish. Ideally, the thematic elements of vignettes will unite them in a way that fashions a connected narrative, even if that short form, repeated for effect, isn’t a traditional story. But it’s so easy for things to... read more

What to Expect When You’re Expecting has been treated with a bit of skepticism, and rightfully so. Kirk Jones’s fourth feature film is based on a hugely popular book, has an all-star ensemble cast reminiscent of last year’s floppy New Year’s Eve), and, perhaps most dire, stars Jennifer Lopez.

Of all the obligatory holiday-themed episodes that TV shows trudge out for us ever year, Mother’s Day (and to a certain extent Father’s Day—have there ever been episodes based around that seemingly much lesser Hallmark holiday?) seems the least defined. You’re pretty much guaranteed one of just a couple of basic Christmas plots and it’s easy enough to tell what will happen in a Halloween episode a few minutes in depending on the genre of show you’re watching. But what exactly do you do for Mother’s Day, other than have a bunch of the character’s mothers hanging about? 30 Rock... read more
