I find it a little odd that the T2: Trainspotting is about trying to go back and relive the past, considering the entire movie is an attempt to go back and relive the past. It probably doesn’t help that for many of the people involved with this...
I promised that, coming fresh off of awards season, when Hollywood works itself into a lull, I would entertain you all with something special. Today, I present to you a labor of love twenty years in the making, and several thousand hours...
Clowns are bullsh*t.
CinemaCon has kicked off in full force thanks to a strong showing from Sony Pictures. Coming in after a pretty decent year, both at the convention and in general thanks to Ghostbusters, Passengers, The Magnificent Seven, Don’t Breathe, and The...
Hollywood is built on nepotism, meaning that siblings often end up working in the same business. Usually you can tell which sibling has the talent and which one is coasting, but there are some families that prove that the talent gene may be...
Later today, CinemaCon will kick off in Las Vegas. I’m sure many of you haven’t heard about this event, and that’s ok. You originally weren’t supposed to. When CinemaCon started out, it was just a gathering of theatre chains to discuss camera...

One of the new songs in the live-action adaptation of Disney’s Beauty in the Beast-indeed, the main new song, as it is performed three times, and once by Celine Díon-is titled “How Does a Moment Last Forever?” Its context in the film isn’t...
My thoughts on the horror genre are pretty much old hat around these parts. I’m not its biggest fan, but I can appreciate it when I see it, and when it raises the bar, I oftentimes love it. We’re in something of a horror boon, with several great...
This was a tough week for me. Due to a severe windstorm, I lost power for a day and a half, and I lost cable for even longer. That meant that I was either without stuff to watch, or I had to rent something to do so. I was also left without the...
