Memos to Hollywood by Manohla Dargis & A.O. Scott
(from The New York Times)
Funny and insightful series of fake memos to filmmakers & co telling them how to make movies better. All very true.

What's The Most Memorable Post-Credits Goodie? by Chris Hewitt
(from the Empire Blog)
With news that Wolverine has anywhere from two to six different post-credits scenes in an attempt to lure fans to cinemas after the film's final cut leaked online, Empire ponders which other films have especially memorable hidden scenes. Their assertion it's a new phenomenon is interesting -- it's been going on for decades, especially in comedies; it's just that it's become very popular recently. Personally, I find them very irritating, and often just wait to fast-forward a DVD to find them.
