Before watching the latest trailer for Pixar’s Finding Dory I was prepared to not like it. After all, I find Ellen DeGeneres’ voice irritatingly ingratiating and in this particular context so saccharine cute that if I were diabetic I’d be worried about falling into a coma. That being said, the trailer is pretty captivating. The […]
Indeed. Opinions are just like buttholes. By DCEU, I mean the DC Extended Universe (which sounds to me like someone’s working really hard not to sound in any way similar to Marvel Studios’ MCU or Marvel Cinematic Universe). In any case, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has earned just over $868 million at the […]
I think I want to see this movie. While the The Nice Guys looks like a typical Shane Black movie–The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight–that’s not necessarily a bad thing because those movies were a lot of fun. After all, it’s not like he’s is directing movies left and right (his last was Iron Man […]
And Yes, it’s as good as you hear it is. And there are ways to program against the box-office behemoth that is Captain America: Civil War, though pitting it against another superhero movie is probably not it. In other words, I’m saying Warner Bros moving Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice from the same release date was, […]
I enjoyed J.J. Abrams’ interpretation of the Star Wars universe with The Force Awakens, but it felt too shiny, too clean. Now Rogue One feels like a Star Wars movie should. Or maybe it’s just seeing old school Star Destroyers and the original Death Star, though I think that it’s the grim tone, the grit and the […]
Seeing that The BFG is coming from Disney, Steven Spielberg, and the writing of Roald Dahl, it’s safe to assume that it doesn’t stand for ‘The Big Fucking Giants.’ And while there are indeed some pretty big giants, I am reasonably confident in saying that while there’s no sex of any sort, there is a whole […]
While it’s great that Bryan Singer finally understands that he’s making movies based on comic books, the bulletin might have come just a bit too late. Reason being, we’ve got Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice premiering March 28–by the time its competition appears on the horizon hopefully it will have profitability in its sights. If it doesn’t […]
Typically, when we’re talking about science, it’s in reference to something that can be proven (such as global warming, which despite what naysayers may say, is quantifiable) by a combination of observation, experimentation and tried and true trial and error. Now sorcery doesn’t have as nearly as rigorous a system of validation, because we’re talking about something […]
Oh. My. God. Where to begin…first off, what the hell is this? Tony Stark’s (Robert Downey Jr.) latest indulgence? A S.H.I.E.L.D. base of operations replacing the destroyed Triskelion from Captain America: The Winter Soldier? I have no idea. Then there’s this: Yes, that’s the Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) outrunning a speeding Audi. The reason being, the car was […]
Team Cap Trailer I have to admit that I am warming up to the whole “United We Stand, Divided We Fall” chant (and for editorial purposes I also admit that I am all about Team Cap, despite that the awesome-looking Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) is on Team Iron Man). In commemoration to the trailer that’s going […]
