Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Megamind

Posted: November 5, 2010 at 12:58 am   /   Another Take From Zac, Local

Extended Comic Con Trailer of DreamWorks’ “Megamind” Starring Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, and Brad Pitt

Posted: July 26, 2010 at 11:32 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

To be honest the first teaser trailer of this looked kind of lame. There just wasn’t that much humor in it, and it looked like kind of a rehashed idea.

Jay Baruchel voices Hiccup, the frail son of Viking leader Stoick (Gerard Butler). Their village is a comically cruel place cursed with constantly coarse weather conditions and frequent dragon attacks. In fact, […]
