I finally got around to watching No Country for Old Men a couple of days ago, it had mixed reviews, some saying it was great others saying it was horrible. I’m firmly in the ‘horrible’ camp. The pacing was so slow it reminded me of Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever, which was the slowest action movie [...]
I just finished watching this action movie called Shoot ‘em Up, and it definitely lives up to it’s name. Guns galore, crazy stunts and bullets flying almost non-stop in this hard to swallow plot revolving around a baby that must be protected by a carrot obsessed gunman. But this is a movie, not real life, [...]
A few years back I had downloaded this little animated short movie simply called Killer Bean 2. I didn’t know where it came from and the name Jeff Lew didn’t ring any bells, but it was pretty cool. I figured it was just some college kid’s animation project, there were a lot of those going [...]

Movies don’t have to come from Hollywood in order to be good or make a lot of money. There have been lots of small Indie films that turned out great and had quite a cult following. Clerks and the Blair Witch Project are two that come to mind which were extremely low budget movies that [...]
Nothing sucks worse than hearing your favorite band is coming to town and finding out that the tickets are completely sold out. Zickets is a new online ticket marketplace where you could even find sold out tickets for that awesome event you were hoping to see. All transactions are guaranteed, you will not be charged [...]
Just saw a trailer for a new movie by J.J. Abrams slated to hit theaters on January 18, 2008. 1-18-08. It looks awesome and I really hope it doesn’t turn out sucking. Good old viral marketing is playing a huge part with this flick though. The trailer starts out looking like a typical teen party [...]
DO NOT READ IF YOU HATE SPOILERS! Watched Premonition last night and overall I liked it, but part of it did piss me off. No, it wasn’t the ending. I liked the irony of her trying to save her husband but in the end it’s her fault for making him turn the car around. Well, [...]
I used to watch this all the time when I was a kid, it was one of my favorite shows. And now that my kid is 3 she’s starting to really like it too. So I get to watch them all over again, and honestly, they hold up really well. 20 years later and it’s [...]
Watched this one yesterday, finally, I know it’s been out for a while but I just didn’t get around to watching it. It stars Sarah Michelle Gellar and the previews made it look kinda Grudge-like, but now that I’ve seen it, it’s not quite the same thing. Her character, Joanna, is plagued by visions of [...]
Watched this tonight, it was better than I expected actually. Eddie Murphy does a decent enough job as both Norbit and the black woman, but I must admit I was very surprised when the credits rolled at the end and I saw that he also played the Chinese guy. When I first saw heard about [...]
Looking forward to seeing this one soon although will probably end up waiting til it comes on DVD.
While out of town this weekend I watched an old favorite, not that old I guess since it came out in 2001. Rat Race, reminded me a lot of the old Cannonball Run style movies, but funnier! The cast for this movie was awesome, especially John Cleese playing a nutjob (eccentric) rich guy who picks [...]
I’ve been watching this guy on youtube for a while now and just recently found my way to his official web site. His videos are even available on DVD now, which is very cool. I’ve been thinking of ordering a copy to rent out in my shop. Really funny stuff, he tackles reader questions and [...]
