Just set the clock on your computer to after 10pm and you can watch it whenever. But the movie looks like shit. It looks like a remake of the remake.

That's how I first read it; that's how it
should be read. And it's appropriate, because this movie's gonna be balls out, man. BALLS OUT FANTASTIC. I just know it.
With the chick from The Fast and the Furious and the obnoxious little fuck who played Oliver in the second season of The O.C., how could you go wrong?
That's not a rhetorical question, by the way. I would like an answer.

Go ahead. If you'll look to the left, you'll notice that I AM A FUCKING BARRISTER. We are the real fighters in the tooth and nail world of the court system. We are natural warmongers.
You and your Paul Haggis-created Walker persona can bring it on.

The Convoluted Tale of the Texas Chainsaw Trailer
It seems that the MPAA is all worried about the trailer for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, which debuted last week. The violence of the piece is too much for the group, who are the ones that hand out ratings to movies, and they didn't want the trailer going online at all.
So the film's distributor, New Line, came up with a plan. According to Variety, they are hosting the trailer on the Apple website, which can sense what time zone a user is in. So as long as the clip is only made available between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m., the MPAA is cool with it.
Censoring a Texas Chainsaw trailer is stupid enough, but here's the best part. If you just change the time zone setting on your computer, you can access it at any time of day.

It wasn't good at all. The audience was desperate. I saw it with a group of friends, we drank a bunch of Jager before going in, and still nothing. No laughs, no screams, only a few hopeless claps.
It might be a crummy horror season. I don't know, The Grudge 2 next week.
Okay the thing I hated most about the TCM remake is that R Lee's character overshadows LEATHERFACE for christ's sake, and they made it into this "evil sheriff feat. leathaface" thing. So now it looks like they're devoting even MORE of the movie to him. What the hell??
really excelent insight from the av club:
"the film is only worth considering as part of a trend of films that seem to exist to show audiences what torture looks like in graphic detail, almost as if torture had become some kind of national anxiety. But that couldn't be the case, could it?"
