Coen Brothers’ “True Grit” HD Trailer Starring Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, and Josh Brolin

Posted: September 28, 2010 at 10:47 am   /   Local, Movie Trailers

I know I might be blaspheming when I say this, but the Coen Brothers are real hit or miss for me. I might be one of the few people who thought that No Country For Old Men was visually stunning, but it left me wanting a lot more at the end. Many of the Coen […]

“The Adjustment Bureau” HD Trailer Starring Matt Damon and Emily Blunt

Posted: May 18, 2010 at 1:58 pm   /   Local, Movie Trailers

I started out watching it, yawned, and then though, “Oh wow, another political movie.” Don’t get me wrong I love politics, but there is enough drama in them in real life that I can only watch a few political thrillers per year.

Green Zone

Posted: March 12, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Local, Movie Reviews

Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass have teamed up on an adaptation of Imperial Life in the Emerald City and the result is a decent political action hybrid that runs into some pretty big third act issues that really hurt the picture. The story follows Chief Miller a WMD team leader for the Army and is […]

Posted: March 8, 2010 at 12:27 pm   /   Local, Viral Videos

What a hilarious sketch. An amazing amount of star power in this video. It is too bad that Kimmel isn’t a little more relevant on the late night scene.  His day is coming soon. On Hollywood’s biggest night, late-night host Jimmy Kimmel continued his tradition of premiering signature comedy pieces and presented a star-studded video of […]
