Predators is coming out! Predators is coming out! Wait, you're not as excited about that as I am, are you? Okay, go read this interview and then dare tell me that you are not excited to see Predators. Adrien Brody is Danny Trejo's hog, man. Also, Topher Grace is still making movies (yay!).

If you don't want to see aliens kill a bunch of apparently dangerous humans (plus Topher Grace), I'm sure you could do worse than Despicable Me, a cartoon about a villain (v. Steve Carrell) who plans to steal the moon until three little orphan girls decide to adopt him as their dad instead.

At Coliseum Ottawa, which apparently is where all the Bollywood movies go, you can check out I Hate Luv Storys, starring Sonam Kapoor and Imran Khan.

Over at ye olde Bytown, today at 4:15 is the last showing of the delightful French comedy MicMacs. Otherwise the weekend is dominated by screenings of Fellini's 8 1/2 and a The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo/The Girl Who Played With Fire combo. I hear not so good things about the latter. Maybe read the book?

Finally, at the Mayfair, do check out the beautiful, heartbreaking legal thriller The Secret in Their Eyes; and the live burlesque shows prior to both screenings of burlesque documentary Behind the Burly Q; among others (recommended other: The Quick and the Dead).
