Convoluted plot and hammy dialogue help this expensive threquel take 2.5 hours to get going.

We're hoping Colin Farrell referred to Arnie's insightful Total Recall DVD commentary before taking on the remake. Thanks to @forksandtorches for remembering this one

Cowboys & Aliens
Jeopardy-free genre mash up that doesn't make the most of its potential, or it's cast.

Harrison F cherchez sa femme in this 87 Paris thriller. Lots of Grace Jones in les clubs as une hipster helps.
Halliwell says: Amiable thriller with Hitchcockian touches, quite untypical of this director.*

Sketch! A Visual Tour of Silver Lake and Los Feliz
Great short portrait of sketch artist Stéphane Kardos from Kauri Multimedia (via @forksandtorches)
"Sketching has a sense of urgency that I love, the energy, the life that can come out of a sketch amazes me. It’s about spontaneity, enthusiasm, confidence. It’s giving the feeling of a place, the illusion that every element is here."

Re-Enter Sandman
Neil Gaiman (aka @neilhimself) sent this over to Comic Con to announce the return of Sandman later in the year. Really enjoyed reading (and re-reading) the series the first time around (can't believe it's the 25th anniversary though...). Here's the first new Sandman art from JH Williams III (who did a great job on Alan Moore's trippy Promethea series)
