First off, let me begin by saying that Paul Rudd is one of my favorite actors. He reminds me a lot of Chris Pratt, minus the occasional athleticism and seemingly boundless optimism. I mention him because recently a bunch of sites–such as Deadline: Hollywood, though I am sure there’re others–have featured pictures of Rudd from Marvel […]
Guillermo del Toro, coming off the success of How To Train Your Dragon 2 (it’s earned over $535 million worldwide) has also produced the upcoming The Book of Life. Judging from the trailer it looks like it could be fun but I have a few caveats: First, it’s a cartoon that revolves around the Mexican Day of the […]
For the one or two of you that have seen James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy, this is the scene at the end (not the ‘button,’ or ‘stinger,’ only a tool would spoil that), and part of the reason why this is, so far, quite the most innovative Marvel movie of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). […]
This is why I avoid “historical” movies. First off, however Moses and Ramses looked, they weren’t white. This is because white people (as in: people that look like Christian Bale and Joel Edgerton) aren’t native to that region. Now there were conquests made by Europeans, primarily Alexander the Great, but that was significantly after Moses would had been […]
Typically when horror-maestro Guillermo Del Toro creates something I am one of the first to acknowledge the sheer awesomeness of his work because few directors, in my experience, have such an eye for the small details that make a movie, be it science fiction, horror, or whatever, particularly memorable. His most recent project, a videogame that […]
Wen I first heard of this trailer, the first thing that came to mine was the Nick Cage vehicle, Drive Angry. Though this actually looks pretty interesting. And sure, you can tell virtually the entire movie from the trailer (guy gets ends up driving for criminal, criminal robs mob (or some such organization), guy reluctantly […]
The Invaders is a television series that originally aired in 1967, and lasted for two seasons. It revolved around a man, David Vincent (Roy Thinnes) who on the way home from work saw an alien spacecraft. He then spent the rest of the series tracking down the aliens, who have been behind numerous plots to gain a foothold […]
A few months ago I misread that prospects of Disney’s Maleficent, so I have been a bit leery about trying to predict the success of films that I don’t care for (in other words, just because I don’t think much of Angelina Jolie as an actress doesn’t mean that the films she stars in will necessarily […]
Let’s (Not) Be Cops, And Say That We Did When I saw the trailer for Let’s Be Cops I genuinely enjoyed it. It not only looked funny, but stars both Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr, who are also in the Fox sitcom New Girl (which is funny), whom I assume since they knew each other […]
I don’t know what it is about Warner Bros superheroes. For some reason, if the movies are any indicator, Metropolis and Gotham City are where dreams and hope go to die. Overall, everything is dark (more so, at least in a physical sense, in Gotham) and gloomy, as if the inhabitants carried invisible weights upon their shoulders. And […]
