DVD Picks of the Week – “The Town”, “Despicable Me”, and more

This is a huge week for DVD releases.  I guess all the studios want to get their titles out by Christmas.  Boost sales a little bit.  Normally I try to give a couple sentences on each film on why you should or shouldn’t see it, but due to the number I am just gonna hit […]

Nominations For 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Announced (List)

The 2011 Golden Globe nominations are in. The King’s Speech leads the way with seven nominations while The Fighter and The Social Network brought in 6.

Lara Croft Gets New Look and Game

When I was a kid, I had a Super Nintendo for the longest time.  And I loved it.  Then, one night I remember being at Best Buy, and all of a sudden we were bringing home a Playstation along with two games that I knew nothing about.  Tekken and Tomb Raider.  My world was turned […]

First Pic of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson with Vin Diesel in “Fast Five”

I have actually been a fan of all of the Fast and Furious films.  Yes, the acting is bad.  And the stories are predictable.  And they have steadily gotten worse.  But I think they are a ton of fun.  Dwayne Johnson seems like a perfect fit for this world, and I was pumped to see […]

Salma Hayek to Star in MMA Film

There is a good and bad to every story.  I always like to start with the good.  My hope is that the good news will still be lingering in your head as I proceed to give you the bad.  The beautiful Salma Hayek is being eyed by Sony (they aren’t the only ones eyeing her) […]
