Independence Day is one such film that should be left alone. In 1996, [...]

A Simpsons Sequel?

Chuck Palahniuk’s CHOKE to a theater near you! (eventually)

Sundance Film Festival is going on right now. For those of you that don’t know, one of the main points of the Festival is for independent film makers to get their films in there, show them to distributors and (hopefully) have distributors purchase the rights to – duh, distribute them. Word is no one is [...]
