Let me start off by saying that I am not a fan of the “Saw” franchise. I saw the 1st 2 movies and thought they were interesting, but by the time the 3rd movie was released I got the feeling that they had themselves a cash cow they were intent on milking. It’s not that the movies are bad per se, I just happen to be a person who doesn’t particularly look forward to a gore movie. Now, with ... Read More!
Superman/Batman: Apocalypse is an animated movie, and sequel to “Superman/Batman: Public Enemies”. The film is an adaptation of the Storyline published in the Superman/Batman comics titled “The Girl from Krypton” which is a modern take on the story of Supergirl. The film stars longtime, and beloved, voice actors Kevin Conroy, and Tim Daly reprising their roles as Batman and ... Read More!
Some of us already know the legacy of the Big Apple Comic Con. Some of us. The Big Apple Comic Con is the longest running (that I know of) annual comic book convention in the NYC area. It’s a daunting, but exciting convention to attend and this year’s show seems to be prepped to be bigger and more extravagant than conventions past. The guest list is outstanding and should be found ... Read More!
First let me open by saying that I did not see the first film. Never even heard of the dang thing. I have to say that after watching the clips and trailers for this new film it actually made me want to look up and look back to see what the heck all the fuss is about. The film is an old school slasher rather than the the type of films they try to pass as horror today. There’s a lot of ... Read More!
Below is the latest trailer for the latest upcoming Harry Potter movie. I must say that the trailer does certainly look impressive. Lots of implied action from within the trailer to excite and titillate fans while waiting for this November release (if it doesn’t get pushed back). I admit that the trailer does have me pretty interested to see how the series will crescendo to it’s ... Read More!
Red Dead Redemption. (What the hell does that mean anyway?) The game places you in the role of John Marston, an ex-outlaw and current protagonist of the story. The game takes place pretty much in the early 1900’s and is in the genre of “Western” through and through. Adventure? Check. Drama? Check! Open World? Check. Prostitutes? Kinda. Comedy in a satirical way? All that! Yes, this ... Read More!
I must really like to put myself through torture. To watch this bullcrap excuse of a movie is like asking someone just shoot me in the head. I don’t know about you, but I just think all these video game companies must love these movie studios destroying the characters and stories they diligently developed. Don’t get me wrong they have screwed up a few comics and some TV-series ... Read More!
Caught “Resident Evil: Afterlife” this weekend. I actually thought this movie was called Resident Evil 3D. Something on a technical note, this is the first film since Avatar to use James Cameron’s camera, the Fusion Camera System. RE3D, (I’m just going to call it that), was solely designed to be a spectacle to show off slow motion 3D action. The CGI is poor in some areas, and ... Read More!
Now I saw Tales of Earthsea and why this film didn’t get much publicly as the other two is beyond my mind. All of Studio Ghibli’s movies are fantastic and I expected nothing less from this film. It’s important to know that this film was not directed by Hayao MiyazakI and was instead directed by his son Gorō Miyazaki. The story is about how humans and dragons once peacefully co-existed. ...

Watched that King of the Fighters movie last night. Good lord, what a horrible movie. I can’t even go into specifics except the whole thing was just horrible. 5 minutes in I was thinking I should just watch MacGruber and at least get some laughs. The movie makes any movie look good, like the Chun Li Street Fighter movie, Battlefield Earth, The Avengers (with Ralph Fiennes and Uma ... Read More!
What do you get when you gather a bunch of the top action stars from the 80’s and 90’s into one movie? It has something to do with blood, guns, women and tons of fun put neatly together in “The Expendables”. I can honestly say I enjoyed the movie. The film was directed and written by Sylvester Stallone. You can tell it was a movie that he wrote due to the subject matter he is ... Read More!
Caught Scott Pilgrim this weekend. It got moved to the cheap theatres up here but is still available at the local cinemas for regular price. I only paid $3.50 for admission and even then my cousin treated me so I paid nothing.
If you have noticed lately, we have a new look! And a new host to go with the change! After months of frustration with our previous web host I decided it was time for a change. I also moved the site to using a wordpress blog rather than Coranto, as development on that platform is fairly non-existent. This means we finally have all the features that you have undoubtedly become accustomed to ... Read More!
