Austin Film Society has just announced an upcoming session in its Moviemaker Dialogues series called " Film Bloggers are Your Friends ." And we are! I swear. The session is aimed at filmmakers who want to know more about using the web to promote their movies, whether they develop their own sites or provide material that online reviewers and film blogs can use.
The session will take place on Tuesday, April 10 at 7 pm in the AFS screening room. Matt Dentler of SXSW (who has his own blog ) will moderate. Panelists include Aaron Hillis ( Cinephiliac ), Joel Heller ( Docs that Inspire ), Mike Curtis ( HD for Indies ), and Jette Kernion ... hey, that would be me. I haven't met all the other panelists in person but I do read their blogs and it sounds like it'll be a useful and fun evening.
You must be a Filmmaker-level AFS member to attend the session, and you have to register on the AFS site. The session is free. You know I have plenty o...

I know, you're all going to see Quantum of Solace this weekend, and you don't care what else is playing, nor will you be influenced by my opinion of the film (it didn't meet my expectations, which admittedly were high). On the off chance that you're not into the latest Bond outing, here are some highlights of movies playing in local theaters this week:
One of the favorites at Fantastic Fest this year is opening this week: Let the Right One In , a Swedish film ab... more
The "MST3K"-style comedy of the Sinus Show will bow out of the Austin film scene this weekend, reports the Austin Movie Blog . The show featured 3 comedians making fun of cinema classics as Xanadu and The Terminator at one of the various Alamo Drafthouse locations in town. Now you'll have to make fun of those movies yourself, in the comfort of your own home. The final shows are this weekend's screenings of Die Hard and alas! They are sold out.
I feel good that at least I... more
Hearing someone's script read is a lot more fun than it might sound. At least, it is if you have a number of actors taking all the parts, as opposed to a very nervous screenwriting student muttering dialogue in a monotone. I went to a script reading at Austin Film Festival (AFF) a few years ago, for that year's winner in the comedy screenplay category, and had a great time.
So I would definitely recommend the script reading that AFF is hosting for Anne Rapp's l... more

Pan's Labyrinth —Playing at Alamo South Lamar, Dobie, and Arbor. I saw this movie at Fantastic Fest, and considered it my favorite movie of 2006 . I'm looking forward to seeing it again. Read my Cinematical review for more details.
Volver —Playing at Arbor. Pedro Almodovar's latest film is getting a lot of attention. I liked it, but not as much as some of his earlier... more
Finally, everyone has a chance to see Mike Judge's film Idiocracy , like it or not, since it's being released on DVD today. To help you decide, Amazon has posted a trailer for the film. Yes, that's right, an actual trailer! I have no idea if this was whipped up especially for the DVD release, or if it was one of the trailers that Fox allegedly created when they were trying to figure out how to market this movie. (As we know, they finally decided not to market it at a... more
