I love movies. More importantly, I love seeing movies before almost everyone else. Certain movies will get me to the theater at midnight, so I figured I’d see them first and write a review the next day so you can get a real review from someone that isn’t a Hollywood hack.
In this installment… The Amazing Spider-Man Continue reading
It looks like we’re going to continue seeing how news teams handled the past while it’s the present for another season; Norman Bates will have pimples; Bristol Palin to talk about pimples and child rearing at bedtime; Ryan Reynolds’ suck streak continues; Stay at Schrute Farms, tell ’em Mose sent you, even if we can’t find him.

Today marks the release of Magic Mike, the big, whopping, man-o-sex, pulsing abs and buttock show that promises to be a thing of sensational acting and even better lookee-loo eyeball cocaine. Ok. Maybe not quite the first thing, even though the movie’s racked up a Stripper Candy Spectacular 79% on the tomatometer. So this may mean something not terrible for walking butter stick, Channing Tatum, right? Apparently. Continue reading
When we heard there would be a feature film continuation of the Alex Cross series started by Morgan Freeman, and that the enigmatic Idris Elba was tapped to play the title role, we were excited by this development. Continue reading
Maybe the better question would be: Is Seth MacFarlane the jackass? In the June 18th edition of The New Yorker, there appears an article that should be one of that magazine’s typical pop culture pufferies; clever, knowing, in-depth, but not too taxing.

Hey guys, I know it’s been like forever since we had a Caller, so here’s one to knock the dust off it. Continue reading
Pop some popcorn and join us for this classic film noir that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the fat lady sings. Continue reading
Oh, Prometheus. You were supposed to be that great big movie behemoth that would charge up a flailing movie genre like no other. Continue reading
On June 9th, SyFy is giving us two of our favorite things combined: Jersey Shore party guidos and sharks (and I guess guns too, if you’re into that sort of thing).

It started six days ago when Brooklyn band Here We Go Magic recognized a hitchhiker on Interstate 70 in Ohio. That hitchhiker was cult filmmaker John Waters. The band picked him up and documented their time with him in tweets and instagram photos before “tearfully leaving [him] on the side of the highway” in Indiana. Continue reading
