“Who watches the Watchmen?”
When news leaked that Rorschach appeared (for one single frame) in the trailer for ‘300’ I was giddy with anticipation. That was back in 2006. I went out (like most other comic book fanboys) and found a copy of the graphic novel so I could re-familiarize myself with the story and characters, [...]
Watchmen (2009)
Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009)
I have a confession to make. I like to shop and I’m a man. I like to go to the Mall of America and walk up and down the each floor of the mall. Each window that I walk by has something new and shinny just for me, watches, ties, pants, coats, shirts, you name [...]
The Wrestler (2009)
So, I dragged the same person to this that I saw Twilight with since let’s be honest she owed me one. I sat through two hours of that narcissistic vampire wannabe high school bullshit, the least she can do is watch an Oscar nominated film with me.
Mickey Rourke was extremely believable. I actually forgot the [...]
Twilight – follow up
I went to see Twilight last night. I wanted to see what had motivated filmsatyr to compose a treatise on the film. filmsatyr focused on the Twilight’s rendering of vampires and how vampires and other monsters have devolved into nothing more than angst ridden super-sexed objects of desire.
I fully agree with filmsatyr. I have nothing [...]
Twilight (2008)
So, I went and saw it JUST so I could review and explain my opinion of this genre.
I did not, and have no plans to read the series of books partly because I am not a teenage girl, and these books were written with that target audience in mind. So, let’s begin with the movie [...]
Eagle Eye (2008)
I went into Eagle Eye with really low expectations. I’m not really a fan of Shia LaBeouf who plays Jerry Shaw, a twin who is trust into a action packed race to discover who or what is pulling his strings. However, LaBeouf’s ability to look confused, angst ridden, and still be sexy, really stole the [...]
Babylon A.D. (2008)
I’m a big fan of Vin Diesel. I’ve seen almost every movie that he has been in. I just think that he is one of the coolest bad asses around. I think that Marvel would be silly to pass him up for one of their villains. The man just knows how to play a bad [...]
Pineapple Express (2008)
The wife and I hit the town last night and we ended up seeing Pineapple Express (Official Site).
I have to say that even though I really dislike weed and weed culture, I really like movies by Seth Rogen about bro-love and getting high. I laughed and laughed and almost lost my shit when James Franco [...]
X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)
Warning! If you are looking for a positive review, please keep looking.
I did not have high hopes for X-Files: I Want to Believe. I went in with very low expectations that should have been easily meet. I guess that joke is on me. Not one of wishes for the movie was fulfilled.
I truly want to [...]
