Mandy Lane is everyone’s high school fantasy girl - you either want her or want to be her. Or… do you? All the boys love Mandy Lane. Well, why wouldnt they? Shes perfect yet unattainable just the combination to send hormonal teenage boys into a right old tizzy. Well, sort of.All The Boys Love Mandy Laneis a strange movie in a lot of ways. And for the most part, he does....

And its pretty cool. In the Marvel version, the faces are all of well-known Marvel characters. Has he or she ever lived in the Baxter Building? was one of our geekier questions, while Does he have a mostly blue head? was one of the, er, simpler ones. So we switched to playing with two cards each, which made things a bit more interesting. Is one or more of your characters a villain?...

The creators of Mystery Science Theater 3000 are back with another bad film mocking show. I was very excited, despite the presence of J. Elvis Weinstein. I checked it out, with much trepidation. The maiden voyage of theCinematic Titanicis the 1972 classic known asThe Oozing Skull. This film is an insult to midgets and mentally retarded man-children everywhere. Thus, its perfect fodder. The only thing that made this film watchable was the riffing from theCinematic Titaniccrew....

It’s based on a German TV show. It involves smashing cars. And it has a useless manual. But Crash Time ain’t a bad way to spend 15 quid… When I received this game the box did not fill me with hope. And then there was the name:Crash Time. I mean, come on. but without any of the intelligence, moral values or decent voice acting. The programme is calledAlarm for Cobra 11, so it might be fiction....

ButBlack Nunfans can keep their wimples on. Are you sitting comfortably? 10-year-old Rachel is travelling from Scotland to London to stay with her estranged father. All we hear is a sinister voice could it possibly be another German? talking to the dog. The next day, Ned gets a ransom note, demanding 200 in return for the dog. The money is picked up but theres no sign of the dog. But hang on, whats that white fluffy thing floating in the Thames…?...

Is the good old fashioned light gun game back for real? Ghost Squad is the most promising sign yet, reckons Simon… I didnt likeLinks Crossbow Trainingvery much. Its a slightly clumsy solution, perhaps, but the thinking is sound. Ad content continues below And thats a pity. BecauseGhost Squadis just the sort of pure arcade blaster that you cant help but resist. Not a problem if youre rich, or if your local Gamestation does good trade in prices....

Simon loves Paul Thomas Anderson’s work. Alongside him is his young boy, H.W. Little Boston is also where we meet Eli Sunday, played byLittle Miss Sunshines Paul Dano. has Best Actor Oscar stamped all over it. The final scene in particular, while certainly rivetting, is an odd fit. Masterful, perhaps, and worth watching, certainly. But that masterpiece tag will have to be left on the shelf for now. What he does next?...

as a pair of soon-to-graduate from High School hormonal teenagers, who find themselves invited to a party. At worst, its harmless, andSuperbadis always at the least quite entertaining. Wed pay to watch that. As for the main protagonists, mark Jonah Hill as one to watch. To his credit, he handles the emotional stuff well too, and he groundsSuperbadeven through its rockier moments. Superbadis a fun, enjoyable comedy, thats not without those aforementioned flaws....

ITV’s culture programme, The South Bank Show, devoted an hour to Tim Burton on Sunday. Simon wished it could have gone on longer. Far more interesting was the central interview with the man himself, though. Rating: 3 out of 5

Ben’s not as impressed as usual with the second episode of The Wire. He’s still impressed, mind you, just not as much as usual… The Wires come up with some pretty inventive characters over the years. None though compare in ingenuity and scariness to Snoop. At least Chris is quiet and wears smart shirts, even if his kill count is far higher. Now whenever Snoop opens her mouth I start wondering things like, does she wear a bra?...

Lloyd Kaufman is the president of Troma Entertainment, and the chairman of the IFTA. Hes a busy man. Not that that stopped us asking him about everything under the sun… Your recent MySpace blog mentioned that Troma is about to move into a new building in New York… Its in an even crappier neighbourhood and a crappier building, we managed to find an even worse building. And the neighbours are worse?...

The Xbox 360s attempt to cash in on the success of the PS2sBuzz,Scene It? We recommend the latter. Lots of rounds ensue, and theres a good deal of variety to them. But the other rounds are better. This is a good thing. Conversely, get a group of movie buffs together, and this is likely to be just the ticket. Scene It?has problems, but it is a robust, decent enough movie trivia game....

This one was interesting. The guy who came up with it was an NYU film student, and he e-mailed me the script… Does that happen a lot with actors, you being sent the script direct…? Ad content continues below Well, now we have the Internet its happening a lot more. If you put up a blog, people can cut out the middle man and get material to you. So I got the script and I read it, and I liked the part....
