Before Mako had a red scarf.
We posted this back in the day on Korra Nation, but strolled upon it and thought it deserved another glory day. How...
Listen!
In today’s episode, Rajan and Patches wish Ryan a happy birthday and reveal Rajan’s total distaste for birthday messages. Have annual wishes been forever changed?

Before Justin Timberlake takes his stab at ’60s folk tunes, hear the originals.
This does appear to be a 3D re-release (or reworked new version using old footage?) of 1996’s Adventures of Pinocchio starring Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Martin Landau. What the world needs right now!
Promo art for Kellan Lutz’s 3D Hercules movie directed by Cutthroat Island director Renny Harlin. That looks about right.
Few pics from the Cannes film market. Where everyone goes to sell their shit. Like “The Adventures of Jinbao.” I swear I’ve seen this before….
Clearly a leak, but neat first look at Disney’s upcoming Frozen. Wish they let their female co-director Jennifer Lee help set up these clips.

Operation Kino 113 Review: Join Us For The Great Gatsby, Old Sport
This week we’d like you to join us for a ride on our hydroplane, old sport, as we sweep up the confetti and champagne glasses left over from our screening of The Great Gatsby. Did Baz Luhrmann’s experiment with 3D actually work with his maximalist aesthetic? Are the crazy party sequences great, or great to the point that they’ll make you sick? And who is this Gatsby fellow anyway? (It’s Leonardo DiCaprio.) All that, plus your answers to our lightning round questions about other books you read in high school that ought to become movies.
BEHROOOOOOOZ.
I’m a guest on this week’s Golden Briefcase podcast!
“On this week’s episode of The Golden Briefcase, Tim and Jeremy are joined by guest Matt Patches of Hollywood.com and the Operation Kino podcast to go through their latest picks of the week, the newest in DVD & Blu-ray releases, new trailers for Gavin Hood’s Ender’s Game and Wright/Pegg/Frost’s The World’s End and much more. The main topic of the night was a discussion on the work of Australian director Baz Luhrmann, in honor of his rendition of The Great Gatsby hitting theaters this weekend. The guys go over what they feel to be Baz’s high and low points and where they want to see him go after Gatsby. Enjoy!”
