Banks falling like dominoes. OMG sign of the judgment bleargh! Oh, crap. Bush to Israel: I'd hit that shit. But maybe you better. Mediterranean Union created. Luxurious!

No Country for Old Men is FINALLY opening in Austin, and we couldn't be more excited (or strangely aroused by Bardem's "lost Beatle from hell" haircut and Wranglers ensemble.) Beowulf: Robert Zemeckis reprises the motion-capture animation technique he used in Polar Express and applies it to everyone's fave Anglo-Saxon epic poem. Ray...

And so while much of the following interview does relate directly to Reg Harkema’s new film Monkey Warfare (which Don is in, and which will be screening at SXSW), we also couldn’t resist occasionally veering way off topic, randomly blurting out years worth of pent-up...

Anthony Nak, the uber-chic jewelers whose flagship store opened in Austin back in 2003, were carjacked this past weekend. The thieves made off with thirteen pieces of Tanzanite -- a nearly extinct stone from Tanzania, Africa -- set in platinum and gold jewelry. Ten of the pieces were recovered earlier this week from a local pawn shop.
