In totally outrageous News…Jon Favreau is leaving the director seat of Iron Man 3 for Magic Kingdom. WTF Jon I love Disney as much as you, but to do a movie based on infamous theme park and everything comes to life for this one family. Are you having an acid trip with Ringo; John; Paul and Geroge makes me wonder, because this movie sounds like one. Can I have what you are having too?! So ... Read More!

The good thing about Super bowl Sunday is that it gives us new commercials. A lot of interesting, ‘meh’ and boring commercials rounded out this year. Captain America…All I can saw I can’t wait. This movie clearly is giving us the origins of Marvel’s most well known patriotic superhero. If most of you don’t know this: Captain America was a solider during World War II by the ... Read More!
Caught No Strings Attached, don’t really have a real impression on it. It was tolerable, your standard romcom. It was directed by Ivan Reitman who I thought actually put a little bit more of a whimsical feel to the movie. I don’t know what else to say really, it was predictable, what you expect, it was funny, but still the usual outcome. I do wish some of the cuts particularly ... Read More!

After the funeral, Britt fires the staff aside from his maid and Kato (Jay Chou), James’ mechanic and a ... Read More!
I enjoyed this movie mainly because it was smart. This film was written with intellect. The only way it works is how it’s presented. In a first person narrative of events that have already happened and you learn how they happened and what came about because of it. You don’t know the full ending but you become invested enough to want to know what happens. It’s funny, Emma ... Read More!
I think I have a guilty fetish of watching Nicholas Cage movies you know will be bad. It’s not to say Season of the Witch is terrible, but I just want to describe this fetish even more. Nicholas Cage is realistically and by pure math should be probably more miss, than hit, but nevertheless you keep watching him. My favorite movies of his are the National Treasure franchise, only ...

A mysterious stranger, not involved with the police, also ... Read More!
Another WTF moment for me, but this one’s isn’t as appreciable as the last. Just saw some “leaked” trailer/teaser/thingy for the movie Red State by Kevin Smith and I have to outright say “BOOOOO”. Kevin has tasked himself with proving himself as a worth while film director in Hollywood and to graduate from his seemingly endless niche of being typecast as a ... Read More!
WTF is this?! This movie is a bit of a surprise for me this morning. It seems that there are aliens living amongst us! This movie seems like some strange mix of Cloverfield with X-men, and some Twilight for good measure. I like some of the action but the teenage morbid emo brooding is usually something I prefer to avoid. Hopefully this is more District 9 and less Skyline. I guess I have ... Read More!

I saw the trailer earlier in the week on a few sites and have to say that I’m kinda looking forward to this flick! It has a lot of good action, and does the world a favor and highlights a lot of the cars. I especially love the scene where Dwayne Johnson’s character tells his guys “WHATEVER YOU DO, DON’T LET THEM GET IN THE CARS”. Some things seem curious about the ... Read More!
I liked the first Pirates of the Caribbean. I don’t think I was as huge a fan as others on the web, but I thought the movie was pretty well done and very enjoyable for people of all ages. I like the Jack Sparrow character enough from the first film, and thought he was just as enjoyable in the subsequent movies even if the movies themselves weren’t as enjoyable and I am certainly ...

I watched the owl movie. The movie started off interesting but then I couldn’t look past the hilarity of what I was watching. Owls fighting to the death and slow mo action scenes. Story didn’t make sense in terms of progression. They make a huge deal about trying to find the legendary owls who may/may not exist in what is supposed to be a far off land. Once they do make it, they ... Read More!
Yahoo happened to score the trailer for the upcoming Thor movie and I am pleasantly surprised at what I’m seeing! Chris Hemsworth is actually pulling it off. They seem to have drawn inspiration from the characterization of Thor from the ‘Ultimate’ line of Marvel comics, as well as the original 626 version. I like it. I like it a lot. ... Read More!
