For those burned out on reading our extensive ShoWest coverage, be sure to click the link at the bottom of this little article. Sheldon was good enough to shoot and edit this reel for us. It basically plays like a cliff notes version of ShoWest 2010. You'll get a look at the show room floor, you'll... [More]

Kick Ass Screening "Showest"

SHOWEST 2010--LIONSGATE PRESENTS A SCREENING OF KICK-ASS There's been tremendous buzz surrounding Kick-Ass ever since director Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, Stardust) unveiled footage at last year's Comic-Con event in San Diego.

Toy Story 3 Screening "Showest"

Toy Story 3 Screening "Showest"

SHOWEST 2010-DISNEY/PIXAR PROUDLY PRESENT TOY STORY 3 God bless Pixar and Disney. Rather than giving us a look at their upcoming slate, they simply said "screw it! We're just going to show exhibitors Toy Story 3 in ints entirety." And attendees were all the luckier for it. Now this is a tough o... [More]

Sundance "Skateland"

Sundance "Skateland"

SKATELAND-SUNDANCE 2010 Skateland harkens back to the good old days of roller skating classics like Roller Boogie and Skatetown U.S.A. Its also a bit of an ode to John Hughes. Actually, Skateland itself serves more as a metaphor than it does an actual location. This is a story about that tough... [More]

Sundance "The Company Men"

Sundance "The Company Men"

THE COMPANY MEN-SUNDANCE 2010 Coming out on the heals of Jason Reitman's outstanding Up in the Air, The Company Men feels almost dated by comparison. This drama about corporate downsizing was written and directed John Wells (one of the many talented individuals involved in the creation of NBC's E... [More]

Sundance "Bran Nue Dae"

Sundance "Bran Nue Dae"

BRAN NUE DAE-SUNDANCE 2010 Its not every day that you see an aboriginal musical, but that's exactly what Bran Nue Dae is. This is a sweet little movie. At heart, this is a coming of age story about a young man who, after being punished for an act of rebellion at a religious school, sets out on a... [More]

Sundance "Happythankyoumoreplease"

Sundance "Happythankyoumoreplease"

HAPPYTHANKYOUMOREPLEASE-SUNDANCE 2010 This film from Josh Radnor (of How I Met Your Mother fame) aspires to be an ensemble of Woody Allen proportions but it's actually more in the realm of something like He's Just Not That Into You. Perhaps that's too much of an insult. This movie is considerabl... [More]

Sundance "Twelve"

Sundance "Twelve"

TWELVE-SUNDANCE 2010 There was some negative buzz circulating in regard to this Joel Schumacher adaptation of Nick McDonell's novel about privileged upper East Side teens leading lives of excess. Actually, I didn't mind it. It isn't a masterpiece by any means. The fusion of drama (think Less Th... [More]

Soul Power (Sundance)

Soul Power (Sundance)

Soul Power is a well edited documentary feature chronicling the 1974 concert that preceded the famous "Rumble In The Jungle" where Ali took on George Foreman. Set in Zaire, this event paired up American soul acts such as The Spinners, Bill Withers and James Brown with African acts like Manu Dubango... [More]

One "Bad Ass" Trailer

One "Bad Ass" Trailer

I'm sitting here writing my Alice in Wonderland review (for the record, I enjoyed it). I'm just about done. I was then going to focus my attention on a big Oscar recap but The Boneman did such a good job, I don't feel the need. I did, however, do an Oscar recap pod cast with a dude by the name of...

Bullocks's Ballsy Double-Take - A Big Winner!

Bullocks's Ballsy Double-Take - A Big Winner!

Blind-sided by the Sportsmanship of this Classy Vet! I've always liked Sandra Bullock. Dating back to her entertaining performances in Demolition Man and Speed. She followed up those actioneers with charming, girl next door turns in films like While You Were Sleeping. While I've always enjoyed B... [More]

SunDance "The Violent Kind"

SunDance "The Violent Kind"

THE VIOLENT KIND - SUNDANCE 2010 Its Evil Dead meets Stephen King in this uninteresting, unfunny, and virtually scary-less tale of a gang who come face to face with an ominous force while partying the night away in the middle of nowhere. Even the make up effects are weak. Directed by The Butc... [More]
