Well dip me in gold and call me Uncle Oscar - it's time for another round of Hollywood hellraisin' courtesy of the Ae Movie Club.
This week the name on every film lover's lips is gonna be Roxy Oscar. They don't call it "The Gay Superbowl" for nothin' - a perfect storm of camp, artistry, spectacle, emotion, and cleverly-named appetizers, it's the biggest night of the year for many of us. If you're like me, the tears will start flowing long before the In Memoriam segment.
So this week we're focusing on all things Academy. We've got an Oscar party planner workshop, a Fast Five of fave Oscar surprises, Vintage Beefcake from an Award winner, an Oscar Bingo card, and more! Plus new posters, trailers, and other goodies that have nothing to do with the red carpet.
5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...
Wait, sorry - before we start, can we just talk about this for a minute?...

Well hello there! Welcome to this week's installment of The Ae Movie Club, the most eclectic collection of eccentric characters since Wadsworth poured after-dinner drinks in the study. ("Not the cognac - just in case!")
I'm a very bad club president (self-appointed), because I didn't see a single one of the movies opening this week. Forty lashes with a wet Twizzler for me. But never fear! There's still plenty of cinematic fat to chew.
For starters, I've got a new Fast Five celebrating romance in honor of today's release of The Vow. I've got a great report from a recent Rocky Horror revival where star Barry Bostwick got more into character than expected (it's seriously awesome), as well as some seriously Vintage Beefcake courtesy of a studly leading man of days past.
It Came From Instant Queue questions Netflix's recommendation algorithm, The Iron Lady gets the Limerick Review treatment, and...

Well hello there! Welcome to this week's installment of The Ae Movie Club, the most thrilling celebration of Hollywood since the last scene of Day of the Locust. (Look it up, watch it, and wonder how you ever got along without it.)
It may be the dead of winter (though you'd never know it from the weather in New York), but things are thankfully starting to warm up on the movie front after the traditionally dull month of January (aka Major Studio Dumping Month). So that means you only have a few more weeks to catch up on all the Oscar contenders and last season of Downton Abbey before the cineplexes are once again in full swing. So - as a gay farmer might say, "Make heyyyyyyyy while the sun shines."
In today's combo pack I've tucked a few Reviewlets of new movies opening this weekend (Big Miracle and W.

Well hello! And welcome to the second installment of The Ae Movie Club, the best-looking gathering of film geeks since Timothy Olyphant squared off against Sarah Michelle Gellar in Scream 2.
First off, I'm So Excited by the response to last week's premiere column - it was wonderful to hear everyone's thoughts, opinions and tips on movies new and old. If you chimed in with a comment, keep your peepers peeled this week because I'm giving a few shout-outs along the way.
This week's big movie news was of course the Oscar nominations, so we'll start off with some Reviewlets of the nominated films. I'll direct you to some fun fan poster art, serve up some reheated beefcake courtesy of Jason Beghe (with an assist by Stanley Tucci), and ask you to join me once again in the Movie Confessional for another round of cinematic shame. There's a We Need to Talk About Kevin...
