This afternoon after attending Easter services and eating our huge dinner, the kids gathered around the big television to watch what any red-blooded American child would… Underdog (ok… so perhaps not that many). I was pleasantly surprised by the live-action version of the cartoon I remember watching as a child. It remained fairly faithful to […]

Not that it’s anything to brag about, but I saw the new movie Shutter not once, but twice this weekend! It was pretty good, if you like movies like The Ring and The Grudge. There are a few other movies people say Shutter is like, but I haven’t seen them. It did remind me a lot

The movie Doomsday is about a virus that wipes out all of Scotland. I’m not really inspired to write much about it because I didn’t like the movie. I can’t even think of anyone I know who would. I wasn’t bored at the theater, but you couldn’t pay me to watch this movie again. First

There are so many movies out there that no one has ever heard of least of all seen. I am sure that there a entire sites dedicated to the B-movie genre. Just cruising the net i came up with a few dandies which may be worth a peek on 3AM television or in the 50

I was debating on which blog to write this post. I, personally, have had enough of filmmakers making the same movie over and over again and attempting to make it a sequel. There has been Cruel Intentions I and II (based on the film Dangerous Liasons). It even had the same characters but played by

Took the kids to see Horton Hears a Who today. Ok, so the title of the blog is a bit misleading… it wasn’t really boring. I am just so tired that I’m 2 for 2 in the falling asleep in the movie theater tally this week. I actually liked what I saw of the movie. With

While having a few minutes free today, I flipped through the endless array of nothingness which is television (especially on a late Saturday afternoon). I happened across the game show “Greed.” One of the multiple choice questions was: “Which four of the following has won a Best Actor Oscar.” The six possible answers were: Al

Oh wait, that was tonight. Seriously. We saw 10,000 B.C. (a new release, no less!) for $3 for 2 people! It was a 5:00 movie at matinee price, plus bring a guest for free night = $3! Add in our popcorn and pop, and we spent less than $10 for a new movie at the

There seems to be a fascination with franchise re-boots in movies today. If memory serves, one of the first was George Lucas’ idea of deciding to tell the back story of Darth Vader. While the idea of Star Wars Episodes 1-3 seemed good in theory, it failed in many respects. The plot of the trilogy

Last night’s movie was called Awake, and it starred Jessica Alba and Hayden Christensen. When I first saw Jessica Alba, I was not looking forward to seeing the movie, and I don’t know why. It’s not like I’ve seen anything else with her in it, but for some reason, I was under the impression that
