As if the original wasn't cynical and revolting enough, Sex and the City 2 has amped up the conspicuous consumption to levels sure to arouse Islamo-fascist anger. In this latest installment, the aging drag queens are off to the Middle East to spread their sense of entitlement to the naive and pathetic native population. Since Michael Bay isn't releasing a film until next year, I think it's safe to say that Sex and the City 2: More Special Effects than Transformers 2 will challenge Furry Vengeance for the title of worst film of the summer.

How's this for absurd -- Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time actually looks decent compared to Sex and the City 2 despite the fact that it almost certainly sucks. I'm surprised there isn't more indignation that a movie about Persians doesn't star any, you know, Persians. I know the correct response is to be excited that George Romero has made another zombie movie, but frankly, I'd rather watch Shaun of the Dead for a twentieth time than Survival of the Dead once. I get that Romero was the alpha-creator of this genre, but still...I'm done.
