I’ll get more egalitarian in the future, my fellow Playtimers. I promise.  At the moment, I’m just going to be egocentric and link my own recent articles for posterity’s sake.  First up (and most recently) is the Playtime roundtable discussion of the 2010 Oscars, in which I spend an awful lot of time ranting about how awful The Cove was.  (Here’s my original review as a primer.)  Then there’s my review of Shutter Island, in which I have the temerity to say that Scorsese’s gone mediocre, just like so many of his vaunted forbears.  So sad.  I’m also proud to say that I edited my old friend Scott’s first published piece for Playtime, a look back at the worst 2009 had to offer.  Very funny stuff.
