...Good for Satan! Soon, our hero is linking everything (Hiroshima, his birthday, things he sees at the park) to the number. Ugh, I can’t describe this trailer. Just watch it and prepare to laugh at Jim Carrey for the first time since “The Mask.” Grindhouse Future Uncertain There’s only so much of Quentin Tarantino’s bullshit that I can put up with. Look—I loved “Kill Bill” as much as the next guy, but dude is reeeeally taking...
...duty-bound to mention two moments I liked. One is the revelation of a masked ancestor statue that Lady M prays to - the older Lecter will be wearing a similar mask when we first see him in The Silence of the Lambs. The other, just preceding Hannibal's first murder, is the flash of a smile before his face goes blankly ferocious and he proceeds with his butchering. But these are two moments in two hours, and Webber has no other epiphanies to offer. As Girl With the Pearl Earring showed, his tone is contemplative; he has neither the skills...
...enjoying every minute of it, which in today's image-driven sports world is also, sadly, somewhat strange. "NBA players are so scared of being viewed in a certain way that they can't be who they want to be," Arenas says. "They put on a mask." Arenas takes it off--just for fun. During the home opener this season, he wore a satin boxing robe for pregame introductions. He reaches out to struggling kids on MySpace and has sponsored a video-game team...
...evildoing entrepreneurs who hatched this plot, in wanting to force their way of life (or, at least, their product) upon all decent Bostonians, succeeded in making the city and its denizens look, well, stupid. Fiends! They must be smoked out. Luckily, the Boston Police Department (BPD) unclothed the cartoonish mask of these devices to reveal their true nature as a hoax of a hoax of a wide-scale deliberate terrorist attack and responded accordingly. The first device was reported at 8:18 a.m. By 10:21 a.m., the BPD had blown up the box of lights with a water cannon...
...Denny Colt, a detective who was believed killed and resurrected himself as the do-gooder Spirit. With Superman and Batman and their caped cronies running altruistically amok through urban mean streets, Eisner was encouraged to make his protagonist a bit more like them; only reluctantly did he slap a mask on the Spirit to establish his kinship to the superheroes. New York (Metropolis, Gotham) was here called Central City, though later the Spirit traveled abroad. Sometimes he nearly disappeared from his own strip, making only a perfunctory appearance in the lives of supporting characters or guest villains. In that sense...
