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. […]
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, […]

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 […]

Let’s get Scared!
Scary movies. To some, they’re addicting. Every time a new one comes out (and it looks halfway decent) you have to see it. To others, they’re no-no’s. You don’t like being scared, so why pay for the possibility? Me? I’m addicted. I love to see scary movies. I love the thrill and the rush. I’m […]

The grace period’s over and, by some cosmic law meant only to destroy your social life, everything’s aligning.
