Before our next Butt-Numb-a-Thon (Bnat) feature and apropos to nothing other than the fact they were there for their own guest appearance at a Slammin' Salmon screening, the Broken Lizard guys had a beer-drinking contest with the Ain't it Cool Newswriters. The Lizards won, with appropriate comedic timing.
Trailers: They Call Her One Eye, Sudden Death (possibly another but between writing in the dark and my pen being rebellious, I can't tell if just overwrote notes on the next film, or over a trailer name)
Shutter Island. Essentially still a rough cut, and Harry recounts the correspondence involved getting the film. And it turned out that Scorcese negotiated the inclusion of The Red Shoes. Nice programming, Mr. Scorcese. Based on a Dennis Lehane book (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone), the mystery of a missing patient at an isolated mental institution is a little too clever for my taste, but I

If I were asked to put together the perfect man night, by whom I don't know, it would inevitably involve Jack Daniels, local Austin beef ribs the size of a cruise ship, and a 70's revenge film. I love the ever-living hell out of movies like Death Wish, Lady Snowblood, Get Carter, and Thriller: A Cruel Picture (also known as They Call Her One Eye).

Sweet Karma, by all rights, should have been something I loved for exactly the same reason. I'm getting ahead of myself.
Sweet Karma is the story of a gorgeous, mute girl from Russia whose sister gets lured into the world of sex trafficking. With

Take your seats, class: Senior writer Chris Nashawaty continues his in-depth weeklong tutorial on all things Quentin Tarantino for the latest installment of EW University. Check out our gallery of 20 Tarantino movie and movie poster faves , our Quentin Tarantino trivia quiz, and our take on the original 1978 Inglorious Bastards.
Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds: Playing spot the reference
Any time you sit down to watch a movie directed by Quentin Tarantino, you're not just watching that movie, but all of the movies he's ever seen. Let's face it, the guy has never been shy or apologetic about his movie-love. You could say that when Tarantino name-checks some arcane chop socky movie or slyly alludes to a Eurotrash cheapie, he's giving a shout-out to the cognascenti -- his fellow movie geeks -- in the audience. In other words, when you watch a movie by Qt, you're actually watching two movies
