Let’s go February!

February’s arrived with soggy, snow-trodden grounds, mounds of mud, and the start of school exams, papers, and projects. Not exactly the happiest start to the shortest month of the year. But, luckily, February also sees the release of many (hopefully) great movies. Let’s start with today, Friday the 5th. We have Dear John and From […]

Son of Rambow

Proper Oklahoma weather has finally come. The “snow” is all ice and slick and impossible to play with. None of that “real” stuff we got over Christmas. That just wasn’t right. Unfortunately, this weather traps you inside. So, let’s talk movies. In this weather, we need a good laugh. From a movie that isn’t seen […]

Movie Rundown

Here’s the quick December 25th movie release rundown:   Sherlock Holmes – Robert Downey Jr. looks brilliant in this renovated Holmes tale. Jude Law is the perfect actor to keep up with Downey’s Sherlock-ian charisma. This tale is a lot darker and a little more adult than what the trailer lets on to it being. […]

An Old Way to Relax

Let’s talk old school today. Let’s talk Disney. December has been a long month hasn’t it? It’s been busy and it’s been stressful. Dead week, and now Finals week, and next week is Christmas. Yikes. So much to do! So, what is a good way to wind down? Disney movies. And I mean the old […]

Things That Probably Shouldn’t Be

My posting as of late has been sparse due to the relentless nature of life (not to mention my own work ethic–about 70 percent of which could be called whimsical at best), but it’s all finally calming down again.  All of this leads me into something somewhat unorthodox for my section of Unwind, since all […]

The Joy of a Kid’s Movie

Wotcher, readers. Hope your Turkey Day was good. So, I’m going to admit something (and I’m proud for it): I saw Planet 51. And I liked it. A lot. It was funny, no, it was hilarious. Then again, I’m also the person who has re-watched the two-hour A Very Potter Musical on YouTube. But, anyway, […]

Today will see the invasion of four brand spanking new movies. Two thrillers, a comedy, and a retelling of an […]

Link Dropping: Gazelle

On a temporary (read: this week) hiatus courtesy of some school-related issues this week, but I thought I’d pop in to offer a site I ran across recently: Gazelle.

Yep, it’s scary…

I lied. I said I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to see the movie. Said I would let this one scary movie pass me by. Well, I couldn’t stay away and I witnessed the phenomenon that is Paranormal Activity. And, I’ll tell you this straight, I got scared. I jumped, I yelled, and I […]
