Dear God its a new month and fall is right on top of us. Ignore the changing leaves, the cooler weather, and use those shorter days for stupid things here on Screened. Then post about them here and add links :D

I did an excellent job at writing up a page for Puss in Boots. Since the Bond film's title was announced I also took the time to write up Quantum of Solace's page and the upcoming Bond film-Skyfall as well.

Decided to give Chinatown an article.

And I wrote a new Jackie Chan Adventures blog about the animated show Jackie Chan Adventures.

I wrote a bunch of reviews: Real Steel, Martha Marcy May Marlene, a French film called Goodbye First Love, and The Bad Seed, a classic black-and-white horror film.

Misclet has a succinct list of films that use minimal sound to create fantastic atmosphere.

and Vetterli has a positive first review of Tintin; a pleasure to hear that it is so good.

I've written a fair few reviews recently, but my latest have been for We Need To Talk About Kevin and Tyrannosaur. The British film industry has churned out some goddamn masterpieces this year.

A special Halloween post on the infamous House this week for Criterion Cuts.

Also I reach the end of my patience and tear Jim Jarmusch's Night on Earth up a little in this week's Directed Viewing.

I reviewed The Adventures of Tintin.

I'm in the process of writing a list about my favourite TV shows. I intend to one day follow it up with a list people might care about. But that is not this day.

I wrote a very brief tribute to Akira Kurosawa and posted it in my blog. I may expand on it someday and do a whole series of blogs examining his entire career.

That is, if I can overcome my laziness.

I wrote another defending my movie for Spider-Man 3.

I've been pretty busy with a variety of things. I took a look at the surprisingly well rated new NBC show Grimm. Then I dropped in on the latest episodes of New Girl, Revenge, and Community. Finally, I started up a series of blog posts about why I love multi-camera sitcoms. I'm planning on three installments, the first of which can be found here.
