Does anyone else think it's just a matter of time before we see a movie titled Like, Totally? (Or maybe there already kind of is one?) We are, like, totes convinced that commas are the wave of the future in movie titles, and this weekend's big releases tend to agree with us. Definitely, Maybe looks to turn itself from an annoying and meaningless phrase into an annoying and meaningless movie, distinguished from other annoying, meaningless......

Manchildren Founder of K Records and former member of Beat Happening, Calvin Johnson mastered precious naivete decades before it became the default indie mode.

But the smiles returned to Londonist's faces as they interviewed Baroness von Reichardt,......

This post was written by Seattlest editor Dan Gonsiorowski. "The Week in -ist" will run every week, typically on the weekend, but we're just getting the kinks worked out of this East-coast/West-coast thing.
