The somewhat predictable result: "There was no meaningful difference in satisfaction levels between classic design and multiplex design IMAX locations."

Wednesday nights, I visit Kusala -- not your average bald, quiet monk. He is a large, friendly, open man, a forceful presence, and he leads us in a discussion of Starsky and Hutch.

Both Star Trek and Ramadan are all about universal values: compassion, discipline, and the struggle for self-improvement.

Bones: Spock! Do a mind meld with Jim. If anyone can get him out from under the influence of the insurance companies, it's you. You're almost as logical as New York Rep. Anthony Weiner.

Firefly is quirky, with the offbeat and clever dialogue we expect from Whedon. But it's also wholly satisfying and fun from episode one

I can go to any movie theater and see America deeply involved in a space program, but the real space program is nearly dead on the vine.

You have to have a script to work with in order to do the novelization. An outline would be horribly inadequate. You also hope for supplementary materials.

The fact that it is considered preposterous for a writer to not dismiss Bay's work in the most vehement of terms points up a dramatic disconnect between the critical community and the movie-going audience.

It's close, but no cigar: Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen ended up $2 million behind The Dark Knight for that much-desired five-day box office record.

In just three days (Wed-Fri), the truly terrible robot sequel has amassed a whopping $125.9 million. This will sadly place the movie at number four for the biggest three-days in history.

The "biggest movie of the summer," Transformers 2 is also the most soulless and awful; impressive considering the litany of cinematic trains wrecks we've endured the past two months.

Some 43 years after it began, and seven years after the movie franchise seemed completely played out, Star Trek is making firsts again. And so far, it's the most popular movie of the year in America.

I can only guess that The Hangover is continuing to expand beyond the frat-boy core, a theory which will be tested when Transformers 2 steals each and every frat boy away next weekend.

William Shatner sat down with Conan on "The Tonight Show," and ended up flipping off the host on Wednesday night. After a few oddball stories about...

There's the Star Trek solution of changing the time-space continuum, but I'm hesitant to recommend that because of the damage it might do to the Obamas' new White House vegetable garden.

The risk-taking, emotional, intuitive Kirk and the logical, rational, conservative Spock need each other. They are two integral parts of a complex, effective decision-making system.

The Hangover -- one of the unlikeliest films to open at number one this summer -- is now arguably the least predictable contender to hold onto the top spot for two weekends running.

You have an R-rated comedy starring a cast of unknowns and moderately recognizable faces that just opened bigger than all but one Adam Sandler comedy and all but one Will Ferrell vehicle.

"Four score and seven meals ago my conscience brought forth to the anti-rebel north a new diet conceived in kindness and dedicated to the proposition that all animals are created equal.

This movie is pro-selfishness and egoism (which is just egotism misspelled), and anti-altruism. It preaches, at length and in a superior tone, that Altruism is Bad. And it means it.

Is the era of the dark comic book movie fable coming to an end? Or is it more a matter of a spate of seemingly underperforming dark would-be blockbusters?

The thing Star Trek does better than most anything is enable you hold a mirror up to our culture and show its deepest -- oftentimes hidden -- flaws
