Fill-In-The-Blank »

...but really, we didn't mean to. I really hoped to be able to get audio editions of our podcast out every day this week, but with Randall in LA covering Milken, and me, here in New York, busy busy busy with Tribeca, we haven't been able to make it happen. So, we're just going to give up on this week, and come back on Monday, with super magical video coverage of Tribeca, as well as your daily news update. Don't cry – it's only a couple of days away. In the meantime, use the comments on this post to tell us what you'd like to see more/less of on the podcast. We aim to serve you.

Celebrate! Two weeks in, the readers (that's you) have finally settled on a permanent name for our daily podcast. Thanks to reader Alex, our morning missive will now be called ... Cinematicast! We're actually taking today off from the podcast, as producer Randall is currently on a jet plane, but we'll be back with an audio-only version tomorrow. In the meantime, if you are Alex, contact us at karina AT cinematical DOT com so that we can appropriately thank you.

It's the last day to toss in your input on our new name, so get to it. Otherwise, today's show has a recap of the Cannes lineup, and news regarding Woody Allen, Julia Roberts, and films new in theaters.
