Now that we’ve gone over the best films of 2014, it’s time to take a look at the garbage. This isn’t a ‘worst of’ list though. There are far too many terrible movies to sift through and do I really need to tell you that Blended was despicable dreck? Or that Annabelle was a cynical,...

I don’t post trailers very often but Big Game looks like it will be the most entertaining movie of year. I’m already saving a spot on my best of 2015 list and I’ve only seen about a minute and a half of the actual film. THIS. TRAILER. IS. EVERYTHING. So don’t tell me to...

Now that 2015 is officially here, it’s time to look back on the films that made a lasting impression this past year. I must say, I thought 2014 was a damn good year for movies. You had to look for some of them but the search was well worth it. In fact, I liked...

Ladies and Gentleman, we are about to enter a dark time. A time where idiocy, incompetence, laziness and cynicism are the norm. A time where souls will be crushed, dreams shattered, and innocence lost. Hope and joy will be left in the wings while boredom and despair will take center stage. I’m speaking of...

Look, I’m bored, it’s a slow news week, and I don’t feel like writing about the Sony hack or about how the cancellation of The Interview is a blow to free speech and the terrorists have won and yada yada yada. There are far smarter people than me to tackle that issue and write...

Christmas is almost here and for most of us that means empty bank accounts, an endless barrage of Holiday music, family parties with people we don’t like, and screenings of flicks we’ve seen ten thousand times yet feel obligated to watch every December. I’m sorry, did that sound cynical? Forgive me, the Holiday spirit...

When I first saw the trailer for Whiplash, I didn’t know what the hell to make of it. It appeared to be a typical music school drama, one of those cloying movies like Music of the Heart or Mr. Holland’s Opus where some wide eyed idiot with a passion for music gets inspired by...

It’s been a good year for TV. Breaking Bad is gone but there were more than a few shows willing to fill the gap. And now it’s time to talk about them. I worked long and hard and crunched a lot of numbers to come up with my top ten list even though my number...

First of all, to address your gaping jaw and look of utter bewilderment, that image above is not fake. Paramount Pictures has indeed made a push for the Academy to nominate Transformers: Age of Extinction for Best Picture. They want Michael Bay to get a Best Director nomination and for the flick to get a whole...

Foxcatcher has Oscar written all over it. It’s chock full of things the Academy loves: a comedic actor making a dark dramatic turn, a pretty boy actor demanding to be taken seriously, a prestigious director who only makes Oscar bait, a script based off a lurid true story, a long running time, and themes focused on...
