Looking back on so many films, the ones in my blu-ray library and the ones that just stick out in my head, the list was HUGE.
The good news about 2009 was that it wasn’t as horrendous as some previous years.
For the past two years, the biggest buzzword in the world of science has been “Large Hadron Collider.” If anybody wanted to sound smart, they simply spoke the name, and presto: your perceived intelligence doubled. Of course, this illusion could be easily counteracted when asked about the nature, purpose, or any general information regarding about [...]
Barney Stinson is the epitome of awesome. What he does on a regular basis is never short of outlandish, ridiculous, and purely hedonistic. Because of this, America loves him. It should be no surprise that Neil Patrick Harris starring as Barney Stinson in a commercial bumper at Super Bowl XLIV seemed perfectly appropriate. Unlike Sheldon [...]
We open with Shaw in black lowering himself into a vault with a gold Aztec-looking mask on a pedestal in the center; a bolt falls onto the floor from his descent rig and sets off the alarm. The vault closes and the air is siphoned out of the room. Shaw asks Casey over the com, [...]
Headlining the top of my must-see films this season is Tim Burton’s version of Alice in Wonderland. Recently announced to debut in 3-D and releasing at the start of next month, it seems to be on the tip of a lot of movie buff tongues. I’m big fan of Lewis Caroll’s nonsensical novels and with [...]
Last year it was announced that Studio Ghibli, the animation studio headed up by Japanese maestro Hayao Miyazaki (Princess Mononoke, Ponyo) was in the process of adapting Mary Norton’s classic The Borrowers for Studio Ghibli.

Jack Bauer has been just about everywhere and done just about everything. Everything that is, except get his own theatrical blockbuster. Well, in typical Bauer fashion, he seems poised to cross another bit of the impossible off his bucket list.
According to Variety, Fox is in talks with screenwriter Billy Ray (Shattered Glass) to develop a [...]
Well, the word on Bill Murray’s involvement in the third Ghostbusters film has finally been confirmed by the man himself. The how and why of that involvement are slightly different than expected. While Murray will indeed be returning as the sarcastic and sly Peter Venkman from the original films, he’s trading in his proton pack [...]
When it was all said and done the New Orleans Saints were Super Bowl Champs and Hollywood had a bunch o’ movies that wanted to advertise during the big game. We already talked about Alice in Wonderland and Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time; joining those two were M. Night Shyamalan’s Avatar The Last [...]
The first movie advertisement to run during Super Bowl 44 in Miami on CBS was Disney’s ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
ALICE was the only film to advertise during the first half of the game starring Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts versus Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints. The second film to run an ad in [...]
