io9, a new blog from Gawker Media devoted to all things sci-fi, launched today. Posts relevant to our purposes so far include Six Reasons Why Star Trek Should Stay Dead, Back to What Future? and Diary of a Mad Black Trekkie.
Vulture sends word that Deitch Projects will host an exhibition later this month built around Michel Gondry’s Be Kind Rewind. The installation will allow visitors to make and watch their own “sweded” films. This will be the gallery’s second feat of Gondry art synergy; in 2006, they hosted art by Gondry related to The Science of Sleep.
21, directed by Robert Luketic and starring Kevin Spacey, will open the 2008 SXSW Film Festival. David Hudson has early details on the rest of the lineup at the link.
Mike Jones reviews a few writeups of the Baghdad International Film Festival, which was apparently THE hipster event in Iraq last week. Yes, seriously.
“Ego overmatches imagination in the work of the vast majority of critics, bloggers and editors,” sniffs The Reeler, who has once again declared war on Top Ten lists.
Speaking of lists, the Village Voice/LA Weekly Critics Poll is out. Southland Tales, which placed high on the Best Film lists of the Voice’s J. Hoberman and Nathan Lee, also tied The Bucket List as the year’s Worst Film.
