THANK YOU FOR SMOKING

CAROLINE: Here we are at the 68th Street Loews cinema. It’s a very nice theater, isn’t it? RYAN: AMC. CAROLINE: Oh that’s right, it’s both now. RYAN: And how! CAROLINE: Would you concur, it’s a nice theater? RYAN: It is nice, yes. CAROLINE: With yummy popcorn, I might add. RYAN: Yes, yummy popcorn. And whilst ..

V FOR VENDETTA

RYAN: So we’ve just seen, albeit separately, “V for Vendetta.” And all I can say is – Wow. Jessica Alba looks great without hair! CAROLINE: (chuckles) I always laugh at that joke. I really do. I saw this movie several days ago with my friend Sean, who took me to an advanced screening, very kindly. ..

FAILURE TO LAUNCH

RYAN: We’re at the 34th Street AMC Theater and it was actually okay today. CAROLINE: Yes. The escalators were actually working. RYAN: For a change. CAROLINE: And we saw a movie called “Failure to Launch.” RYAN: But before we get to it, we have to make a couple trailer comments; beginning with, and with all ..

TSOTSI

RYAN: “Tsotsi” disgusting. “Tsotsi” incredible. “Tsotsi” disturbing. “Tsotsi” amazing. CAROLINE: This is the movie that won Best Foreign Film at the Oscars this year. RYAN: Indeed. CAROLINE: And we felt we should see it. RYAN: It was our cinematic duty. CAROLINE: That’s right. Now. I’m not gonna lie to you. I had a few “bored” ..

16 BLOCKS

RYAN: We’re making a very rare appearance on the East side of Manhattan tonight. CAROLINE: Yes, it’s quite unusual for us. RYAN: At the AMC/Loews Kips Bay Theater, which is a great, clean, all stadium-seating theater. CAROLINE: It’s a nice theater, but, OMG, who wants to haul over to 2nd Avenue? RYAN: And though the ..

The 78th Annual Academy Awards

RYAN: Wow! So after much ado… CAROLINE: About something… RYAN: Mmm Hmm. We finally witnessed what will go down in history forevermore… CAROLINE: As the 78th Annual… RYAN: Academy Awards. Overall, I really enjoyed the show. CAROLINE: As always. And especially since it wasn’t four and a half hours long this year. RYAN: But I ..

Tis The Season!

RYAN: I didn’t realize that the Independent Spirit Awards are the same weekend as the Oscars. CAROLINE: Oh I knew that. Get on it! RYAN: I could not imagine, if I were nominated for an Oscar, that I’d want to attend another awards show right before the big show. CAROLINE: Well this is a totally ..

Who Will Win?

RYAN: Hey! What are you doing this Sunday? CAROLINE: Well. I think I might watch the Oscars! RYAN: I will level with you here, my dear. CAROLINE: Please do. RYAN: I’m so excited about the Oscars this year. I feel like I’m getting married! I feel like Sunday is my wedding day! CAROLINE: (laughs) I’m ..

THE PINK PANTHER

RYAN: “The Pink Panther.” I love the title. CAROLINE: It’s very original. Now I’d like to say that this was a movie I had little to no interest in. And I was pleasantly surprised. RYAN: I know you were. And I knew you would be. And I’ll tell you what. The original is still classic. ..

DATE MOVIE

CAROLINE: This is a cliché, but there’s 90 minutes of my life I’ll never have back. RYAN: Ouch. “Date Movie.” Spoof. Comedy. A la the “Scary Movie” series and I thought it moved relatively quickly. We like romantic comedies. CAROLINE: I thought it was unwatchable. Unspeakably horrible. RYAN: Really? CAROLINE: I laughed at about three ..

FREEDOMLAND

RYAN: Well… to begin: It’s interesting to see Old Man Douglas back in action again, in one of the trailers we saw. CAROLINE: Michael Douglas. You mean, “In the Line of Fire?” That movie already came out. RYAN: And the little wife of Wisteria Lane, Eva Longoria… Leading lady?!?!? Like, gun-toting, undercover cop. I don’t ..

FIREWALL

RYAN: The most amazing part of the movie “Firewall” is the news that Calista Flockhart is pregnant by Harrison Ford. CAROLINE: WHAT!?!?! RYAN: YES! CAROLINE: She’s, like, 45. RYAN: She’s 41, excuse you. CAROLINE: Oh, sorry. RYAN: And, as everyone knows, she is the apple of my eye, “Ally McBeal.” CAROLINE: Well now they know. ..
