An incomplete (but growing) collection of the "beloved and irresponsible" film critic's work for Premiere magazine that hasn't already been compiled in book form.
To read the columns from Premiere on this blog, click on any scanned page, then right-click to download it as a JPEG that can be magnified on your desktop so you don't get a headache squinting at all of Libby's great one-liners. (Alternately, you can right-click to open a page in a new tab on your browser and magnify it that way.) I never worked for Premiere, so if you're a copyright owner and would like Libby's columns to be removed from this blog, please contact me at rwcass@gmail.com. They're meant for informational purposes only, I promise. (Well, they're also meant to make you laugh, but you get the idea.)

November 1998: "Dirty 'Mary'"
"... I decided that the secret of its huge box office is this: There's Something About Mary features such incredibly attractive actors as Cameron, Matt, and Ben doing the stuff—most of which involves tongues and odors—that was previously reserved for John Belushi, Chris Farley, Sam Kinison, and other dead comics with weight problems."
August 1997: "Lethal 'Wedding'"
"Her best friend is Dermot Mulroney, a hunk with whom she once had a college fling; Julia and Dermot have promised each other that if they aren't married by the age of 28, they will marry each other. When I heard this bargain described early in the film, I settled blissfully into my seat, knowing that any traces of recognizable human behavior had been completely banished from the screen."
