Groupon Movie Deal

Groupon has a deal for AMC Theaters that I would be amiss if I didn’t pass on.  The deal, for either two or four AMC Silver Experience movie tickets is valid for any AMC Theater, though tickets for 3D presentations will have an additional cost. If you’re like me you take a deal whenever you […]

Insidious 2

“Insidious 2,” the sequel to 2011’s “Insidious,” is ramping up for production, according to Bloody Disgusting.com.  The original film, written by Leigh Wannell and directed by James Wan, brought in on a budget of $1.5 million, earned almost $100 million dollars worldwide.

‘The Munsters’ Return to ‘Mockingbird Lane’

A new version of “The Munsters” being developed by  Bryan Fuller (Pushing Daisies, Heroes), and directed by Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects, X-Men, X-Men United, and the upcoming “Jack, The Giant Killer”) will be called “Mockingbird Lane.” My problem with this concept, besides verifying a suspicion I have had for awhile that Hollywood is bereft […]

The ‘Arrow’ in the CW’s Quiver is…

Accordimg to Deadline, in the CW’s “Arrow,” based upon Green Arrow, an emerald-costumed archer from DC Comics, the title character is being played by Stephen Amell.   I recall him from “Screamers: The Hunting,” and hope that he brings more to the role than than what he exhibited in that film, which was a woodenness that […]

Stretch Armstong Out At Universal

I don’t know Taylor Lautner, and while I don’t think too much of some of the roles he has chosen up to this point, I get the feeling that he knows a train wreck when he sees one (despite the appearance that, because of lackluster box office for Lautner’s “Abduction,” that this project fell apart […]

‘Jurassic Park’ Live

Rememeber the idea behind 1993’s “Jurassic Park?’  The film, based upon a novel by Michael Crichton, directed by Steven Spielberg, revolves around an island where dinosaurs are brought back to life from the DNA of mosquitoes caught in amber. Our technology hasn’t quite advanced that far, though we’re getting close, yet I am willing to […]

‘Man On A Ledge’ Trailer

This movie has a title, like “John Dies At The End,” that pretty much tells you what’s going to happen at some point in the movie.  That being said, I think that I care just a bit more as to why John dies as opposed to what some man is doing on a ledge. Though […]

Starz Dim On Netflix

Just wanted to remind everyone that Starz content on Netflix will vanish after Tuesday of next week, which means that movies like “Breaking Away,” “Tron: Legacy,” and “Silver Streak,” to name a few, will not longer be available. Despite this fact, it appears that the subscriber flight over the Quikster debacle, as well as the […]

‘The Hunter’ Trailer

Tasmanian Tigers (which are not related to cats, and are actually marsupials, like kangaroos) are believed to have gone extinct in 1936, though there are some that believe that they still exist in the wilds of Tasmania. It strikes me as fascinating that it could possibly be alive today, which is why I am surprised […]
