“Apparently, No One Told Director Tommy Wirkola That Sometimes Too Much Is Just Too Much.” Have you ever known a person that you enjoyed being around, despite that they always seem to try way too hard to be the center of attention? You may like them as an individual, but wish that they would just tone […]
Maybe it’s just me, but I am just not seeing the logic. Computer graphics have enabled filmmakers to create the seemingly impossible, and while I think that I will always prefer practical effects, I do understand that the leaps that CGI have reached are pretty impressive and such effects can’t often cannot be done any other way. […]
When Syfy premiered Z Nation a few months ago, the only thing that I was curious about was what took them so long. The Walking Dead has been breaking ratings records for AMC for years now, so that it took so long for someone to premiere another series that revolved around the undead was a […]
Do we really need–or more importantly, want–another Terminator movie? Especially since the last movie in the saga, Terminator Salvation, performed relatively mediocre? Well, according to Paramount and Skydance, we do. Enter: Terminator: Genisys. The trailer looks okay, but is it really doing something that we have already seen? Or is it bringing something new to […]
I might have to turn in my African-American membership card after I admit this, but I have never been a huge fan of Spike Lee’s films. I often admire what I assume are his goals when making them, but in my eyes the final execution always left something to be desired because (it felt to […]
I admit it, I shat the bed, figuratively speaking. When I saw the trailer below, I assumed that it was for J.J. Abrams’ upcoming Star Wars sequel, The Force Awakens, and should have known better. Why? Because a huge clue was staring me right in the face the entire time, which I have posted just below. […]
I liked most of I Am Legend, based on the story by Richard Matheson, though my admiration stopped at the computer-generated effects, which tended toward the cartoony. What makes matters even worse was that StudioADI was actually working on practical special effects on the movie for a time (which actually effected the way that I looked […]
“”Comforting Skin” is a decent movie, yet why do I feel gyped?” Derek Franson‘s Comforting Skin is actually a pretty decent thriller, though its biggest problem is that it advertises itself as one thing, when in actuality it’s something else. If you look at the trailer, it feels to me like a horror movie in the vein of Psycho […]
No, DeepStar Six, isn’t the latest Ultramarionation feature from Jamie Anderson, but a undersea horror movie from Sean Cunningham (Friday the 13th) that was followed in quick succession by George P. Cosmatos’ Leviathan, and culminated five months later in James Cameron’s far superior The Abyss. DeepStar Six revolves around a US Navy mission to place an undersea […]
Kevin Feige, you cheeky bastard. It appears that you pulled a fast one. When the trailer for The Avengers: Age Of Ultron was leaked prior to it appearing on Marvel’s Agent’s Of S.H.I.E.L.D. I assumed that that was the end of this story. Sure, Marvel Studios handed things pretty gracefully, but I thought it was […]
