Posted: May 31, 2012 at 6:35 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

We already saw a big shift in the last two weeks when Paramount announced a month before release that “GI Joe: Retaliation” would be postponed nine months until March 2013.  Check out Blake’s thoughts here.  I think that is a special exception though, due to these films being so far from their intended release dates […]

First Look: “The Lone Ranger” Starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer

Posted: March 8, 2012 at 3:30 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

“The Lone Ranger” has been through a lot in recent years.  The project has been in the works as far back as March 2002.  Then it sat in development hell until Jerry Bruckheimer set it up at Disney in 2007.  I would have figured the project would be put on the fast track given how […]

To call the film is actually almost an understatement. The film constantly borderlines on being inappropriate for children, has some rather […]

Movie Review – “Rango” starring Johnny Depp, Directed by Gore Verbinski

Posted: March 4, 2011 at 6:53 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

When I watched the first trailer for “Rango,” I was immediately captured by the stunning animation. Combine that with Johnny Depp voicing the lead role, and Gore Verbinski at the helm, and I was pretty excited to see what would happen.

New “Rango” HD Trailer Starring Johnny Depp

“Rango” HD Trailer Starring Johnny Depp

Posted: July 1, 2010 at 1:50 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

The animation looks absolutely brilliant, and […]
