...return, America's crazy attempt at a moon landing (1969) and the grand strategy of the USSR (which dissolved in 1989). The pair's personal favorite, though, is Dee Snyder's Teenage Survival Guide, a book by the lead singer of the '80s metal band Twisted Sister - a man whose qualifications to guide teenagers through their formative years are dubious...
...prices for 3-D showings (which brought in about 40% of the take), the movie still earned less in those five days than 2006's Ice Age: The Meltdown did in its first three. It didn't help that Dawn of the Dinosaurs was the summer's fifth movie whose cast of characters included at least one prehistoric beast. (Can you name the other four?*) It may be time for Hollywood to go back to spacemen...
...song and based on a manga by Naoki Urasawa that has sold some 20 million copies, this fantasy of an alternative Japanese history imagines that the lines and pictures scrawled by a club of kids in the '70s has become the Book of Prophesies by a cult whose leader, known only as Friend, takes power many years later.

One prophesy - that "The satanic salesmen will destroy the world" - might have referred to the Wall Street sharpies who crippled the world...
...represented by the sweeter-than-it-is-sexy Blind Love, a twist on Cyrano de Bergerac, with a ventriloquist using a friend to woo (and have sex with) his inamorata. Lalapipo (Lot of People), set in the teeming, tumescent world of the porn industry, is an agreeably demented farrago whose hero has a talking penis that looks like a Muppet - say, the Nookie Monster - and urges him to have sex with someone other than himself. If you get to see the movie, stick around for the UFOs...
...Noir meets nutso in this black-and-white thriller from a vital national cinema whose films are virtually unknown in the U.S. After his car runs over something on a country road - turns out to be a skeleton - a tough-guy newspaperman stops in a small town that seems to be under the curse of a female ghost and is certainly teeming with oddballs. It's the old story of the city slicker out-crazied by the remote rubes. Unfamiliarity with Malaysian film conventions may leave you wondering whether the tone is comic or melodramatic or simply extraterrestrial. No matter...
