“Spider-man” Director Sam Raimi Directing “Earp: Saints for Sinners”
I know what some of you are thinking, “Oh great another Wyatt Earp movie.” Only because that was one of the first things I thought as well. However, this is an updated Wyatt Earp tale that is set in the future. Combine this with Raimi’s comic book sensibilities and you have a win-win situation on […]

All kinds of names have been thrown around such as Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Zac Efron. None has gained more traction than Percy Jackon […]

Legendary Pictures picks up Warren Ellis’ ‘Gravel’
This is great news. Although, if I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard of a Ellis story being adapted for the screen, and never coming to fruition. I’d have at least twenty-five cents by now. Ellis’ stories are very hard to adapt for the screen. Why? Well, because they are incredibly nihilistic and […]
‘Venom’ Movie gets Gary Ross as Writer/Director
I like Gary Ross for one main reason, Pleasantville. Although, you may like him for penning/directing Seabiscuit. He doesn’t really seem like the type of person to write Spider-man 4 or be the new creative mind behind the Venom spinoff. If you look through his body of work, he is responsible for a certain type […]

Drag Me To Hell
I always like to let people know from the beginning if I am biased one way or another about a film. Everyone has some sort of bias, however as a critic you have to try and remove that and judge a film on it’s own merits. I’m not a huge fan of the horror genre, […]
