X-File A Day – “Space”

This is an interesting episode mainly because it’s based upon an image found by the Viking 1 Orbiter in 1978. Some believe that it’s a structure that was discovered on Mars that resembled a human face, similar to the Sphinx in Egypt, while most established space scientists believe that it’s a simple trick of light […]

Regal Movies Exclusive ‘Riddick’ Trailer

Thanks goes out to Adam Chitwood over at Collider for posting this trailer (It shows less than than the “Riddick” Red Band trailer already released, which isn’t a bad thing since that trailer revealed a little too much at times). Fortunately, what hasn’t changed is that this movie looks awesome.

A ‘Horse’s Mouth’ Worth Looking Into

The old proverb says “Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth,” though Cy Curnin’s latest solo release “The Horses’s Mouth” is well worth closer inspection. The album, produced by Curnin and Nick Jackson, is thematically more optimistic than 2012’s “Solar Minimum.” Though I don’t imply that “The Horse’s Mouth” is the first time that […]

X-File A Day – “Pilot”

This is the episode that started it all.  It begins with a woman, dressed in a nightgown,  running through a dense forest at night.  She falls – as women tend to do in these situations – and a light appears over a nearby hill.  A figure that appears to be male steps out of it, […]

Len Weisman Leaves ‘The Mummy’ Reboot

According to The Wrap, Len Weisman is leaving “The Mummy” reboot over at Universal because of scheduling conflicts. And while I wish him no ill-will, I have to say that this will probably be for the best because Weisman – be it his ‘Underworld’ films or his entry in the ‘Die Hard’ canon, “Live Free […]

‘The Collection’ Review

“The Collection” isn’t the worse film that you’ll ever see, though it’s probably one of the most pointless.” (I was made aware that my original review contained some inaccuracies – like the title of the film, for instance – so I have made corrections.  Thanks, Jamie.  The film is called “The Collection,” not “The Collector,” which is its […]

X-File A Day – “Deep Throat”

This is the second episode in the First season, and revolves around Cornel Robert Boudahas (Andrew Johnston) who appears to be suffering the effects of piloting craft that may be based upon extraterrestrial technology.  At some point, he vanishes, which results his wife calling in the FBI. Story-wise, it’s not the best of the series, […]

Could Wolverine Ever Enter The Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Possibly, though under some certain very specific conditions.  Marvel Studios has regained the rights to use characters like Blade, Ghost Rider, Daredevil and The Punisher, though Fox owns not only the rights to use the X-Men in features (which Wolverine is a member) but also the term “mutants” – describing enhanced human beings – as well. And […]

Odds For A ‘Pacific Rim’ Sequel Improves

As I have written elsewhere, “Pacific Rim,” despite somewhat underperforming domestically, is doing well overseas.  And according to The Wrap, it will be released this Wednesday in China, which will go a long way to determining if there will be a sequel. It’s not an accident that one of the jaegers, Crimson Typhoon, is Chinese, […]
