Zero Dark Thirty is out this week, and features one of the weirdest, most distracting movie cameos we've seen in years. The only way it could be weirder is if Graham Norton played a Navy SEAL. Here are the parts we can't believe they filled with

It's 2013! A new year of wonderful movies to look forward to, so full of potential and promise. Or we could just point and laugh at last year's films again? Yeah, let's do that.
2012! The Jubilee! The Olympics! Barack Obama was re-elected! What a year! Also some films came out, and some of them were quite good, which is why we're here.

Time to report on a movie trend that's more terrifying than any
unnecessary helicopter or
diagonal title treatment: the fact that spelling standards are seemingly slipping throughout the film industry – from props and in-film graphics to promotional materials, posters and beyond. This inability to use proper spelling and grammar is more damning to Hollywood than any film directed by Peter Berg ever could be.

Review embargoes are a necessary evil in the world of film journalism: in all honesty, a paltry price to pay if it means you get to watch a top film first and for free. However, as I've
discussed before, some embargoes can be staggeringly draconian, like the one I received today. Naturally, all it made me want to do was figure out a way to break it.
