New "Snow White and the Huntsman" Trailer AND Five-Minute Reel

Ok, I'm seriously digging this SWATH business. It looks seriously cool. Chris Hemsworth is appropriately moody and handsome. Kristen Stewart doesn't look completely terrible in it, and more importantly Charlize Theron looks like a total baddass.

Since I seem to be completely inept at figuring out X-Finity's embed system, here is the link to the /Film coverage of the new trailer and five minute reel.

Also, here's a YouTube version of the trailer, but it's not as good as the XFinity version, so watch that one!

Why I Haven't Blogged: Or, Snowed in, in Dallas

This is the easiest way of explaining why I haven't blogged in a while:

The big blizzard of 0'10 shut down all the airports on the Eastern seaboard, so my flight for Monday was changed to Thursday. Since I don't like to blog while on vaca (and by that I mean vay-cay as in vacation, not as in the Spanish word for cow), it meant that instead of not blogging for a week, I didn't blog for about two weeks. Nuts!

Anyway, I'm back and I've got a LOT of blogging to make up for before 2011 is upon us, so get ready for a barrage of posts tomorrow.

Hope you all had a happy holiday and got to take at least a few days off! I know I did!

[You can learn more about the film here. It's based on Dziga Vertov's "Man with a Movie Camera" which I studied back in film school! Don't tell anyone, but I like this one better. Though that could just be because I don't have to write a paper on the theory behind it. Also, Roger Ebert thinks it should be nominated for an Oscar for Best Short Film of 2010. "Idiot with a Tripod", that is, not "Man with a Movie Camera," which I think might be a little late to qualify.]
