Okay, so our daily Cool Stuff feature has definitely taken off. We’ve gotten tons of great feedback, and each new post is more highly read than the last. But I’m starting to find the daily schedule rather limiting. I have a backlog of hundreds of submitted and found items to report on in future Cool [...]

It has been a few days since the last time I found a few minutes to blog about my SXSW adventures. And it’s not for a lack of stories or interesting tales. If Sundance was the internet, than SXSW would be Web 2.0. At Sundance everyone is working (well, actually, that isn’t true because [...]

I’ve landed in Austin Texas, and it is much colder than expected. Isn’t Texas supposed to be warm/hot? I think I brought some of the bad weather from San Francisco with me. It’s been rainy, overcast, and cold. I don’t think anyone in the house we’re staying at planned for such. It appears that the [...]

I’m sitting in an airplane at 5:45am, waiting to take off to Colorado, and then to Austin Texas, for the South By South West Film Festival. Someday maybe this job will afford me a direct flight, sans connections. This will be my first time at SXSW, as well as my first time in Austin, so [...]

Update: If anyone is interested, we’re meeting at 8:00PM at Jillians at the Metreon right next to the convention center.
Who’s going to WonderCon this weekend in San Francisco?
Alex from FirstShowing and I will have a bit of free time on Friday night, February 22nd, and we’re considering catching some dinner and drinks with anyone who [...]

The Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie trailer will be online Thursday Morning. Keep checking back!

I love my cell phone wireless internet card. I don’t know how I would have survived Sundance without one. It’s an amazing thing to have the ability to be online anywhere.
Right now I’m on the way to SFO to pick up a friend from the East Coast from the airport. And I’m blogging while on [...]

Just wanted to give a quick update. The reason for the infrequent updates this past week have been because of this “bug” I caught at Sundance. Today, my fever got to a high of 102.7. This is definitely the worst sick experience of my entire life. It appears to be coming down, so hopefully everything [...]

Hello again everyone, I’ve returned from Park City, but I’ve unfortunately caught the flu (which most people in Utah were referring to as “The Sundance Bug”). I know at least seven other people who caught this thing while working at Sundance, and one of my good friends, Frosty, even ended up flying home early. I [...]

This post has been reposted for our Monday morning visitors.

Just a couple weeks ago /Film was named the reader’s favorite entertainment blog by Performancing.com. I’ve just been informed that /Film is one of the nominees for the big one, the Eighth Annual Weblog Awards, or as they’re better known as The Bloggies. We’re one [...]

This is a forum for all of you piling out of Cloverfield this morning, afternoon, evening and throughout the weekend/month. Did you think J.J. Abrams’s and Matt Reeves’s film was a modern day classic? Did the monster meet your expectations? Did you expect [that] to happen? I’ll be chiming in with my review shortly. This [...]

Note: You are not having a deja vu, I’ve republished this post on Monday morning so that our weekday readers could hear the good news…

/Film has been voted the Best Entertainment Blog in the 2007 Performancing Blog Awards. Because of you guys, we won the “Readers’ Choice Award“, after taking in 54% of the vote [...]

When I first started /Film, I intended the site to be a forum for film geeks to blog about film. We launched with 20 part-time writers. But that time has long past. Aside from our Box Office Guru Steve Mason and and occasional review or list, /Film is virtually a one man show. I’ve been [...]

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from your friends at /Film.

News is usually slow on this yearly holiday week, but, “I assure you, WE’RE OPEN!”
Don’t expect our usual extensive coverage, but we’ll be posting a few features, and a couple really cool contests (did someone say Indiana Jones??? ), and whatever news leaks out. So keep checking back, and Happy Holidays!
