Oh, good heavens. Why fight it? This thing looks insane, but nonetheless, Sylvester Stallone’s Social Security program just keeps happening. It’s literally like playing a game of This is Your Life as it pertains to movies. You’re really just wondering when they’ll roll out Rick Moranis or JoBeth Williams from Poltergeist. Evidently until that happens, Stallone will just keep force feeding us 80’s action stars dressed in combat gear and with whatever is keeping Dolph Lundgren’s face alive. Continue reading

We’re really rolling now! Award nominations are flooding in. Yesterday it was the SAGs, today the Golden Globes. Things are shaping up rather nicely for a few movies that you just know are going to be on the big Oscar list, and there may be a couple of noms doled out by the Golden Globes that the SAGs obviously missed (Ryan Gosling), so take that Actors! The Globes are in your face!

Confession: I almost never go to movies. My husband and I just don’t have the money to spend twenty-five bucks on someone flashing their glaringly bright cell phone screen at us while some baby who’s way too young to be viewing Die Hard 17: Effing Die Already cries from the back row. This year, however, I made it to the theater quite a few times, for which I was very proud of myself.
Now, did I see anything remotely resembling a cinematic masterpiece? No, I saw things like Monte Carlo starring The Wizardess of Bieber Place, Blair Waldorf, and a woman who should’ve sealed herself in a box after Melrose Place got canceled so she could successfully preserve the one time in her life she didn’t suck at her craft. But still! There were probably some good movies out there this year, right? So tell us, in response to the Question of the Day: What Was Your Favorite Movie of 2011? Continue reading
Well, if hearing some of the songs by Journey and Foreigner weren’t already fraught with enough Glee induced pap that it’s like dousing your eardrums in battery acid — here’s Hollywood’s latest attempt at auditory suicide, Rock of Ages: The Musical, or The Depressing Thing Tom Cruise is Doing Now or Russell Brand Hasn’t Been Deported Yet!

The SAG Award nominations are out, and as many an actor will attest, fawningly, the SAGs are that one award that means the most (Not really. They all want the Oscar.) since it’s chosen by fellow thespians. Is it a complete Oscar predictor? No. But it is a good indicator of who the top contenders will most likely be. Continue reading
Have you ever wondered how something you’re watching actually became a movie? You know, how you look at Adam Sandler up on the screen doing some sort of crazy man, goof shuffle, while wearing a dress, sitting on a donkey, and getting punched in the face by a ten year-old? Yes, well, someone, at some studio, decided this was a good idea, and then they told people, and more people, and look what just happened! Sandler was called, a director was hired, and voila…crap on a stick! Well, the annual Black List is an integral part for some of these movies. It’s the list of the most popular “unproduced” screenplays that could make it to theaters. Continue reading
Yeah, so, we’re back with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as they attempt to maintain, or control, or slapstick carouse with the world’s population of aliens and, I guess, animated graffiti drawings? Makes total sense. Continue reading
An old man wants to get his groove back by sexting his old girlfriend, Top Gun. Psychopaths can be bought for cheap, right? Single at 65, sure. Kardashian’s create another monster, and ABC breaks up with some dudes.
Gird your loins, the ones without Viagra, Hollywood has news for you… Continue reading
If you are going to be sitting on the couch and watching something at make it something that might motivate you to get off of it. “Whip It” did not make the list, just so you know. Continue reading
We thought this would never happen again, but we were wrong. Somehow Shyamalan was able to free himself from his underwater jail, and he will again make a movie. Drat! We really thought we’d stopped him this time. We lined his cell with critically acclaimed movie reels and hoped it would work like Kryptonite. No such luck. Oh, well, it will be awful!
Take a look at what’s coming soon. Continue reading
