The News: Monday News Haikus!

By S.T. VanAirsdale

As per tradition (or at least for now), some of today's movie news from around New York in convenient, work-delaying, 17-syllable form:

--Lim is nostalgic:
R.I.P., videotape.
Those were not the days.

--Poor Cloverfield.
Misrepresenting New York
has made it no friends.

--Denby boogies down
this week in The New Yorker.
He knows his dance films.

--Harvey fakes the funk,
worships the Rambo franchise
as Nikki Finke groans.

--Jamie Stuart's new film
is a beauty from Sundance.
Ends with a surprise.

--The Wackness is sold!
Sony Classics drops $2 mil
for Kingsley toking.

--D'Arcy earns a slap
from Guardian blogger Leigh.
Can't say I blame him.
