Today I, being the uneducated sort, asked my co-workers why I’d want to be a werewolf if there were no female werewolves (in the world of “Twilight”)? I was told that there are female werewolves and that one, Leah Clearwater, would appear in the next film. So the question became: Will female werewolves in the “Twilight” films take on the similar character traits (shirtless and tattooed) as her male cohorts? Or will she appear in the ...  Read More

My mouth is beginning to water as I think about where I was a week ago tonight. It was Slow Food Utah’s Harvest Dinner, highlighting the best local artisanal and seasonal products. There were about 40 of us in the private dining room of Spruce Restaurant at the Dakota Mountain Lodge at The Canyons ski resort in Park City, and it was six courses of succulent crafted by Chef Mark Sullivan. Those seated around the two long table...  Read More

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I'm not talking about my unenviable position as a film critic forced to grade a film that most people have already decided to love, hate or avoid altogether. No, in this case I'm referring to the art of adaptation. Stray too far from the original source and you're bound to offend the fan base, stick too close to text and you might discover that what works as a book doesn't necessarily translate into a film. When I interviewed the various...  Read More

Precious (Gabourey Sidibe) is an overweight and under-educated teenager who is pregnant with her second child. Her home life is devastatingly abusive and she is invited to attend an alternative school where she will be given more one-on-one attention. ''Precious,'' or ''Push,'' as it was known at the time, was a fan favorite at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, but I had no desire to see it. Everything I knew about the film sounded horrific and so extreme that I couldn't imagine...  Read More

Last week as I sat waiting in the KUTV studios to talk about that week's new films, all anyone wanted to know was if I had seen ''New Moon'' yet. There were even three separate stories devoted to ''New Moon'' that led up to my segment. It would seem that like Christmas, football and summer vacation, it's never too early to start talking ''Twilight.''I wish that I loved the books as much as many of you do. This was never more apparent to me than a few nights ago as I stood against t...  Read More

It wasn't something I was expecting to see in a modern dance concert. The girl flounced onto the stage in a huge party dress. Three men walked behind her, holding her skirt up for her and carrying her microphone around. She jumped into their arms at random intervals when the mood struck her. When the guys set the microphone up, it was much too tall for her, and they had to lift her up to it so she could sing -- or rather, lip synch to the Arabic lyrics with comical gusto.This...  Read More

The fervor over ''New Moon'' is particularly white-hot in Utah because Stephenie Meyer, the author of the Twilight saga, is a BYU grad, and the most enthusiastic fans crave a gala event where they can bond with one another. Especially if it includes film merchandise. Several organizations are more than willing to accommodate them.TwilightMoms is the adult fansite, and last year a group of Utah women who met there planned an opening night party for ''Twilight'' at South Jordan Com...  Read More

''The Blind Side'' is based on the true story of Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron), an underprivileged African-American boy of remarkable size, and his rise from the Memphis slums to become a first-round NFL draft pick in part because of the kindness of the white and well-to-do Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) and Sean Tuohy (a clean-shaven Tim McGraw).''The Blind Side'' has been touted as Sandra Bullock's breakout role, similar to what ''Erin Brockovich'' was for Julia Roberts.

From its earliest days, rock 'n' roll has always been about shakin' hips and gettin' chicks. But not heavy metal. Metal is all about death and destruction and the Evil One. You know, the cool stuff.Though plenty of bands are fueled by dreams of wizards, warlocks, and the apocalypse, Chicago instrumental trio Russian Circles draw inspiration from the author of the real-life end of the world for their third album, ''Geneva.''''We were intrigued by the biography of Oppenheimer thro...  Read More

The plot of ''Dragon Age: Origins'' is essentially a struggle between the Darkspawn, a race of cursed mages that attempted to become gods, and the citizens of Ferelden (humans, elves and dwarves). To make matters worse, there are forces within the people of Ferelden that are looking to capitalize on the Darkspawn threat through murder and political deceit. If you can't calm the tensions pushing humanity toward civil war you'll never have the strength to withstand the Darkspawn ...  Read More

I think I might be dating my gynecologist. Something I don't think her husband or kids will be happy to hear about. When I went to my appointment last week, I felt like I was getting ready for a date, not a dreaded trip to the doctor. I shaved my legs ankle to ass, not the usual ''I'm wearing a skirt so I'll shave to my knees'' deal. I even used shaving cream to prevent rash, which I rarely do. I followed the shaving up with my fancy lotion, not the daily cheap shit I use. I to...  Read More

I was far too focused on seeing David Bowie to really take note of Tiesto's skills or style, but in the intervening years Tiesto became a very familiar name as he played at the opening ceremony in Athens for the 2004 Olympic Games, was hailed by BPM magazine as top the top DJ in the ...  Read More
