Second, dad-supervised viewing. Some good bits, but both overambitious and under-developed.

One Big Holiday - Ze Movie
There's a documentary inside the box set of My Morning Jacket's forthcoming album Circuital. I wonder if it will offer any explanations.
UPDATE: My Morning Jacket's "Shower Scene" is below, from their upcoming live webcast with Todd Haynes. Whatevs.

Iron Man 2
Stupid, lazy, rushed, shapeless, underdeveloped sequel - sacrificing style for pure volume.

New Stephen Malkmus album 'Mirror Traffic' due August 23rd.
Beck is behind the controls.
That's the awesome cover above.
Don't make the same mistake I made with Real Emotional Trash. That was a grower after all.

3D Pad
A pretty could-be-cool demo for 3D on the iPad, which uses the camera to deduce where the viewer is and adjust accordingly. Not good for that social, shared viewing experience...

Kurt Vile at Rough Trade East
A little shambolic, while the heavy sound didn't bring the best from Vile's DIY vibe.

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah are back with a new album in September. Hysterical will be self released. Sounds promising from the promo. Let's hope it's a good one ...they've got a lot of explaining to do.

New Chili Peppers
Blindly stumbled across news of a new Chili Peppers album today while reading of a book signing in LA - due summer '11, Flea on piano. Though it's anyone's guess on how they'll fair with Frusciante back in hiding and Josh Kilinghoffer taking over.
Keidis still looking cool. Will Ferrell Turned up too.

Trailer Park: The Adventures of Tintin
I was never the world's biggest Tintin fan ....but here we have a teaser trailer for the first of three motion capture/CGI extravaganzas from Spielberg and Peter Jackson. Make of it what you will.

Blitz
Valiant, star-studded mainstream Brit cop thriller. Well managed, but hampered by cliched, clunky characters.

Escape from the island ....Alcatraz, that is
Trailer up for the new JJ Abrams TV show - Alcatraz. Looks to be positioned somewhere between Lost and Fringe in terms of production quality and originality.

BBC Doomsday
The BBC are dumping the previous hard-copy iteration of their time-capsule "Domesday Project" for a more modern format. I have no doubt that "A Website" has about as little life-span as "A Laser Disk" - as Toby Anstis illustrates below.

The stellar director and all-star cast can't save this dull wartime road movie, lacking in jeopardy.

The Spy Who Came In From The Cold
Compelling Le Carré. R Burton total class. George Smiley cameo: just like Marvel universe .
Halliwell says: The old undercover yarn with all the trimmings of such sixties malaises as death wish, anti-establlishmentism and racial problems. As a yarn, quite gripping till it gets too downbeat, but very harshly photographed.**
