Guardian. Culture.

The Guardian redefines "Unlimited": Catherine Shoard offers a day-by-day guide to what we can expect to see at the new film site week in, week out, while Alex Neeham explains the many ways the entire culture site's been revamped.

Taking a quick look around:

• Jonathan Jones argues that Martin Scorsese's King of Comedy is the "Last Great American Film."

• Laura Barnett chats with Mike Figgis.

• "Blockbusters have become a key battleground in the culture wars, an arena where left and right exchange biffs and kapows in the struggle for the American soul," writes Ben Walters.

• Andrew Pulver: "I've been a film journalist since leaving university in 1990, and I can't work out whether my increasingly ambiguous feelings towards the medium are a product of middle-aged ennui or a genuine paucity of compelling ideas out there." This leads to a bit of online viewing: "Saint Etienne as a band have their retro-fetish side, and this is writ large in their films."

That's just a few items that hit the eye first at this hour; looks like it's going to be a fairly constant stream.
