Rants

So Nice I Bought It Twice

After a couple discussions with friends I got to thinking of what it takes for the average person to purchase a movie multiple times (either on the same format or not).  I put together a small list of examples of reasons why I think it’s worth purchasing a movie again (some from personal experience).  Maybe [...]


From Small Screen To Big Screen: Death Of The Saturday Morning Cartoon?

Remember the days when the school week drew to an end, not only was there excitement of the oncoming weekend and the hours of free play, but it was the significance of the next morning, Saturday morning cartoons. Every kid would spend their next morning affixed firmly to their comfort spot and sat there starry-eyed [...]


What to Make of All These Remakes?

Has Hollywood run dry when it comes to the horror film genre? As of late, the recent trend by studios have been to quickly churn out subpar remakes of our beloved horror classics, but are they worth our time and movie dollars? I say, “no”, though there may be minor changes, expanded storylines, bigger budgets [...]


Rant and Dissection: Punisher: War Zone Teaser

A few months ago when I found out about the remake of The Punisher that was being filmed, I had a little mini-rant go through my head.  Now, this rant may have occurred because I’m one of the like five people that enjoyed the first Punisher or because I like to bitch.  Either way, it [...]


Kung Fu Panda Rocks Rotten Tomatoes

You may remember a bit ago I wrote a post that mentioned all of the films I thought would suck this summer.  Well, a film called Kung Fu Panda was the second film I mentioned on that list.  While I didn’t score that as low as some of the other films on the list, I [...]


Guest Post: Are There Any Original Ideas Left Anymore?

Editor’s Note: The following post is from Jen from JenReviewsMovies.com.  She’ll be adding some writings and thoughts here soon and hopefully we’ll have a new site up for her soon.
After this week’s announcement of a new Beverly Hills Cop Movie and news of Michael Bay putting his treatment on the Ouija board game it’s got [...]


Based on True Events…Not Even Close

After receiving so much interest in the previous post about The Strangers I thought that it would only be appropriate to write a follow up, especially with the release of the movie being tomorrow.  First off, I’d like to thank all those who commented on the previous post, especially those who did some research of [...]


Foreplay and the City: A Sex and the City Prelude

In anticipation of the new film I decided to give everyone who hasn’t seen Sex and the City or have forgotten what happened, a recap of the series before we watch the film.  Even though this should give you enough information about the series if you have never watched it, I would highly suggest renting [...]


In an Ode to Terrible Choices, Sex and The City Chooses Fergie’s Theme

Well, at least, that’s the only way I can see this working out.  Why would Sex and The City want this song attached to their film (or anything for that matter) otherwise?  I mean I realize the theme behind the show and their hopes for empowerment via shopping, but do you really need some overly [...]


Based on True Events…Maybe

UPDATE: I’ve made a followup to this post.  Click here to check it out.
I was going through some new trailers that I put off watching and I came across The Strangers. The Apple Trailers website description of the trailer is what got me interested in watching.
Lock the doors. Assume you’re safe. The horrifying [...]


Sex and The City Gets to Film Wheverever They’d Like + Pics

Apparently, if you’re filming Sex and the City: The Movie, you’re able to film wherever you’d like. The film was able to be filmed in exclusive spots like St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the New York Public Library and Vogue Magazine. No other film has been able to get into these locations before, but Carrie [...]


Pixar’s Biggest Problem

While it’s hard to find many problems with the ever so successful Pixar (and subsequently their films), I believe I’ve found quite a large fault of theirs.  This fault doesn’t come in the normal way you’d expect the fault of a person or a company to come.  No, instead, it comes in almost the opposite [...]


Rumor: Certain Ledger Scenes Could Get Cut from Dark Knight

While I wouldn’t normally jump on rumors so quickly, Cinema Blend is reporting that they received a tip that told of certain Warner Bros. execs that were debating on cutting out a certain unsettling scene from July’s release of The Dark Knight. The source of the tip explains that during test screenings of the [...]
