It figures that Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie, in what at first glance appears to be a ridiculous-looking costume) would be playing a bad guy (or a misunderstood one) in the new Tomorrowland trailer. It’s interesting because it gives more context to what the movie is about, which it really, really needed because–as far as […]
If you’ve seen videos of cosplay or the various ‘Cons’ the first thing you notice is that they feature all sorts of quirky, colorful (and often brilliant) costumes, which is why it’s understandable if you thought that that was what comic geek culture was all about (besides costumes and the–virtual–worship of certain movies and comic characters).

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. […]
Let me being by saying that I am not a huge fan of J.J. Abrams (and I still think the subtitle, The Force Awakens. is pretty weak). He’s talented, but feels relatively passionless to me. He also efficient–he finished Star Wars: The Force Awakens almost disconcertingly quick–but I am not sure I am feeling the love. […]

If I had any doubts, then the email I received from The Hollywood Reporter removed them. It explains that the trailer for the J.J. Abrams-directed Star […]
Demand I am still reasonably sure that there will be a sequel to the 2010 Joseph Kosinski film, Tron: Legacy. The original earned over $400 million worldwide, on a budget of $170 million. When you take into account promotional costs–which I don’t have access to, but I’ll add on another $100 million, which sounds […]
Every since Joaquin Phoenix decided to pass of the role of Marvel Studios’ Master of the Mystic Arts, Doctor Strange, all sorts of names are being bandied about, such as Ethan Hawke and Keanu Reeves. The latest is Ewan McGregor, and I think it’s unlikely (Ethan Hawke would be my choice, and it helps that he’s worked […]
Truth be told, I am neither a huge Star Wars fan (beyond the first film and its sequel, The Empire Strikes Back) nor too interested in J.J. Abrams as a director (way too many lens flares). That being said when video of the Millennium Falcon is posted, you repost it. Because “when you’re nose to nose […]
