Kia’s Super Heroic Vehicles

Working with DC Comics’ We Can Be Heroes campaign, a relief effort to fight hunger in the Horn of Africa, Kia created a number of custom vehicles for the  2013 New York Auto Show. The vehicles are designed with styling queues from iconic DC superheroes like Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman, and Aquaman. The cause that […]

‘G.I. Joe: Retribution’ Review

“”G.I. Joe: Retribution” isn’t a good film, though there’s enough things blowing up on screen to keep everyone entertained (which is kinda sad when you think about it).” To enjoy genre films, be they scifi, horror, fantasy, or anything for that matter, it’s necessary for the viewer to accept that the world that the story […]

‘The Apparition’ Review

“”The Apparition” Is Too Good To Have Been Treated So Shabbily By Its Producers” First off, ignore the trailer posted below.  It’s seemingly for Todd Lincoln‘s “The Apparition,” currently spooling on iTunes.  The footage is accurate, though the voiceovers misrepresent the movie (most of which aren’t actually in the film), as does the tagline for […]

Official ‘The Wolverine’ Trailer

Here’s the complete trailer for James Mangold‘s ‘The Wolverine,” complete with narrative continuity!  Here, Logan/Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) makes his way to Japan, where it appears that he somehow loses his healing factor, which is bad thing when what looks like hundreds of black pajama-clad ninjas are trying to kill you. There’s a fight on what […]

‘White House Down’ Trailer

Just when you thought that we survived “Olympus Has Fallen,” here comes the more obviously titled “White House Down.”  This time instead of Gerard Butler, all we have is Channing Tatum standing between us and those that would destroy our way of life. God help the terrorists, especially considering that this is from Roland Emmerich, […]

‘Riddick’ Teaser Trailer

This is interesting.  I was actually looking for something “Iron Man 3”-related, when I stumbled upon this trailer for the upcoming sequel to David Twohy’s “The Chronicles Of Riddick.” I don’t know when this snuck on to the Interwebs, but it looks like the real deal and not some mashup of clips from various ‘Riddick’ […]

‘The Wolverine’ Teaser Trailer

Here’s a link to the first teaser from “The Wolverine,” which I suspect is genuine because it shows footage than has, as far as I am aware, not been available prior (and there’s the fact that it appears to be from the Twitter feed of James Mangold, who’s directing the upcoming superhero film).  Unfortunately, it’s […]

‘Olympus Has Fallen’ Review

Mount Olympus was the home of the Greek gods, where they ruled over all mortals (these deities never seemed to acknowledge any people other than Greeks, implying that Greece was somehow the center of all creation, and the pinnacle of their handiwork). Minor spoilers begin. That ‘Olympus Has Fallen’ is code for the White House […]

The Omen (2006)

“The most recent version of “The Omen” (2006) isn’t terrible, but by being so faithful to the original makes one wonder why you wouldn’t go to the source. “ I recently visited my local Giant, looking for something work-related, when I stumbled upon a bin filled with previously-viewed movies, virtually all of them costing $3.99.
