Movie Man
When film critic Will Pfeifer isn’t watching movies, he’s reading about movies, talking about movies, thinking about movies or dreaming about movies. Now he shares that unhealthy obsession with you. From Hollywood hits to Japanese obscurities, from Oscar night to the summer season, he’s got movies on the brain — and on this blog.

    With the Dark Knight opening will Meet Dave sell any tickets this weekend? Although I suppose they don\’t have the same target audience… umm, what exactly is Meet Dave\’s target audience?

    What was Battle Field Earth’s target audience? Scientologists or Science-fiction fans? What’s the difference? I tell you the difference, about a million brain cells.

    My wife made me go see it opening weekend. I guess I’m part of the problem.
