There were a lot of high expectations coming into the 2012 summer movie season. With high adrenaline fueled adventures, a new Pixar movie, a few remake and sequels along with comedies galore, this summer wasn’t looking too shabby. Among the vast ocean of summer blockbuster films, there were a few unexpected titles that stood out and some that hit the mark as as predicted. After the jump you’ll find out what eight films I adored this summer. Continue reading
It goes without saying, you must see Batman Begins and The Dark Knight before you step one foot inside the theater for The Dark Knight Rises. This film has had fanyboys/girls’ loins wet from over excitement since the last shot of The Dark Knight with Batman escaping into the night. There are many great actors that hold together this epic, epic trilogy, but where else have you seen them before? I’m going to take you deep into the bowels of some of Gotham elite’s filmography, and present to you some films that highly reflect all of the actor’s talented abilities. Continue reading
OK, now I know this is a LONNNNNNNNNNNNNG time coming, but I finally have gotten the stamina and motivation to complete these lists. I may be seven months late, but you know what, there’s always movies someone hasn’t seen and they are always looking for a fresh perspective. (Heck, The Artist just released to home video a week or so ago.) Some of these being hardly a year old I figure there’s still no expiration date for reviews! I still thoroughly enjoyed the movies on my “best of list.” It may be a bit more unconventional than your average film junky’s, but I think this is quite the list none-the-less. Continue reading
What a year in entertainment it was! Not only was it a record breaking year for movies – 27 sequels were released in 2011 – but there has been a lot of crazy happenings in television as well. We got some great popcorn flicks – Tranformers: Dark of the Moon, X-Men: First Class, and Rise of the Planet of the Apes – we saw the final Harry Potter film, Breaking Bad season four was nucking futs, Community was put on hiatus til Spring of 2012, and we were introduced to American Horror Story.
I myself sat down to partake in the viewing of a lot of entertainment this year, but not as much as I would have liked. Again, I had tried to fulfill a year of more films to knock off my shame-list, but sadly I was overtaken with more real-world priorities and a very inconsistent work schedule. How much media did I watch this year that I have never seen before? I kept track, so take a look! Continue reading
I never really had a great time in high school trying to understand and decipher the technical jargon that are our constitutional rights.

Little did you know, in 2003, he sold his comic collection for $1.68 million, including his copy of Action Comics issue #1, the first ever appearance of Superman. Nicolas Cage is a hard fortune cookie to crack, but behind the man, the myth, the legend, lies a very intricate being full of depth we perhaps may not even want to fathom. I bet you didn’t know he named his son Kal-El after Superman or that he is related to Francis Ford Coppola and changed his last name to Cage. To find out what really feeds Nic Cage’s awesomeness you just have to keep reading!
Lacking the opportunity to gain screeners or press screenings makes it slightly more difficult to fit in the time or budget to see every movie that comes out within a year. Sometimes you just have to buck up and watch a lot of damn movies; that’s what the Internet is for. With less than one week until the 83rd Annual Academy Awards, I felt that it is my duty to share with you my thoughts on last years motion pictures.
The year was 2010 and a whole lot of nothing was going on in the cinema world; there were the really good and then there were the really bad. Hardly any movies in 2010 were sub-par, but to create a list of the best was really hard to determine. So what films did I love and what films did I hate? Find out after the break to see who made my best and worst movie lists of 2010!
Now I have not seen allll the films of 2009, but I have seen a great many this year. The year of 2009 has been a great year for film in all ranges of the category from cinematography, directing, writing and beyond. This year will be remembered for a long time to me as it was the year I gained this hobby/love interest of film. I wish I could have seen every film I wanted to this year as it would probably change my list, but we all can’t afford to see that many movies. Continue after the jump to see my picks for my best and worst of 2009:
