So it’s finally upon us: Week Seven — the Halloween episode. But the real scares come as the horror of watching Dancing With the Stars without Chaz Bono. We all knew this day would come, but you can’t prepare for it, you know?So last night, one of the best party…
This Halloween, we’re going all out. Our house is covered — ceiling to cellar — in phony cobwebs. We’ve got an unbroken chain of Jack-O-Lanterns lining the perimeter. And, yes, on the porch, completely unguarded, sits a tremendous black witch’s cauldron filled with suckers, bubblegum, chocolate bits, gummi-everything, movie theater…
As we found in our sex survey, a little less than half this city is single. And “master matchmaker” Steve Ward of Tough Love knows why. We all need to be a little sluttier, drop the BS, and lower our standards. On Tough Love last night, Ward introduced the ladies…
Everyone can’t seem to stop raving about last night’s return of Beavis and Butt-head to MTV. What could have been a disaster of epic proportions (you aren’t suppose to mess with a teenage classic) actually turned out to be a great return for the duo. Mike Judge seems to realize…
When someone blurts out, “Fire! Fire!,” it is hard to not think images of Beavis’s bulging-eyeball, tense, clenched-fist fascination of fire. And how can anybody forget Butt-head’s heavily-aspirated laugh? After a nearly 14-year hiatus, Mike Judge’s loveable socially-awkward, porn-loving metal heads Beavis and Butt-head returned to MTV last night. The…

Margin Call at Coral Gables Art Cinema October 27 through November 3
Take Shelter: A portrayal of madness in crazy times
After a week absence, we our back in the saddle with this week’s Dancing With the Stars recap. Where were we last week? Our DVR messed up and didn’t record, most likely rejecting the theme of ’80s week as if it were a surgical malady. Or perhaps our DVR knew…
On Tough Love Miami, the womenn take no time in getting the party started. In the first 30 seconds of last night’s show, Steve Ward announces that one of the days challenges is going to be a sexy photo shoot. This can’t be too hard when most of your contestants,…
So the Miami-set and filmed Charlie’s Angels got the boot, but at least we still have Magic City. According to the trailer for the first episode (posted after the jump), the Starz drama begins on New Year’s Eve in 1959, the same day Fidel Castro took over Cuba. In our…
This year marks the inaugural Recent Cinema From Spain Festival, and with Spain’s Goya Awards (the Spanish version of the Oscars, except without any grating Billy Crystal musical numbers) celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Miami International Film Festival and the Gusman Center for the Performing Arts are about to help…

Next time you drive past Miami International Airport, know that there is much more going on over there than arrivals and departures. Just blocks from MIA, there is magic being made. We are talking about the set of Starz’s soon-to-be hit show, Magic City, written, created, and directed by Miami…
We thought maybe they had decided to move Tough Love to Miami because of our great beaches and beautiful weather. Well, that might have had something to do with it, but Steve Ward had something else in mind: a city of non-English speakers all in one place. The ladies first…
Dinorah de Jesús Rodriguez is a multimedia artist working with expanded cinema, experimental film, video art, installation, and public intervention.

Dangling down here like the neglected foreskin of America, we’re expecting Saturday’s Occupy Miami protest to spiral out of control. Mark our words: There will be food trucks. There will be reggaeton blaring. Someone will bring up Fidel or Chavez. Yes, the Everglades need to be saved and the Port…
FOX’s cult-hit-turned-fan-favorite, Arrested Development, is returning to the airwaves for a victory lap season leading up to the grand finale feature film. Word of an AD movie has long been buzzing on the interweb, so the added bonus of a full-season’s worth of Bluth family catchphrases has us boiled over in…
