This is quite possibly the most legendairy clip YouTube has ever aired. On a scale of one to awesome, this video is scrumtrillescent. It’s better than Rod Burgundy, and he’s the balls! It’s so good I just broke my hyperbole meter.
It’s so important that this video be watched by every [...]

The Worst Crimes Perpetrated On Movie Franchises By Kids
Apparently, by no sane measure of logic, adding a kid to a movie franchise will liven up a tiring concept and reinvigorate a series for the millions of people who once breathlessly paid to watch the adventures but whom now shrug a collective “meh” to the whole deal. Further, the mere sight of a [...]

THINGS I SAW IN 2006 THAT WERE REALLY, REALLY BAD
Here are the ten movies I saw in 2006 that were so repugnant, so foul, so sucked-ballsish, and so full-on poopy that I had to single them out for non-praise. May my soulful green eyes never fall on these abominations of cinema ever again.
My Bottom [...]
Things Overheard: Picture This, Blockbuster Sucks & Steven Spielberg is 60
Birthday wishes go out to Steven Spielberg, my all-time favorite director, who celebrated his 60th birthday on Monday. He may not always make the coolest movies, or even the smartest movies, but his movies are always exceedingly watching, expertly made and laced with the type of magic seldom seen on-screen. In other words, he makes the best movies.
Why Rocky Balboa Should Win The Oscar For Best Picture
For this, and for the following reasons, Rocky Balboa should win the Oscar for Best Picture. Now I’ll admit out of the gate, that as of this writing I have not seen the movie. So this is all conjecture. If the film is terrible, this post will look pretty stupid. But I don’t think it will be. I think it’s going to be the perfect final chapter in one of my favorite film franchises of all time. I think it’s going to be a great last shot from one of my favorite actors. And I doubt that I will love any film more this year, than Rocky Balboa.
Tearful Celebrity Apologies
Wouldn’t you like Lindsay better if she just admitted to the coke and the anorexia? Wouldn’t you like Colin Farrell better if he just admitted he bangs anyone that so much as blinks at him (male or female)? Wouldn’t you like George Lucas better if he apologized for Jar Jar and the prequels? I know I would.
25 Birthday Wishes
I wish that Spielberg, Ford and Lucas would decide NOT to make Indiana Jones 4. Indy rode off into the sunset after finding the Holy freaking Grail. How do you top that? Ford is pushing 65; do they really expect us to suspend our disbelief that this AARP member is still believable whipping Nazi’s and running from boulders and bad blonde actresses? Let it go, guys. Let it go…
Movies With Lazy Titles
Is it the fact that there are actual snakes on a plane that entices us so much, or is it that the movie had the balls to actually call itself “Snakes on a Plane”? I side with the second one. The title is so simple, so beautiful, so… lazy. That’s the real genius of the film; the title is perfect because it’s so incredibly and blatantly lazy. And yet, people love it. It got me thinking, are films titles over-thinking themselves?
Rocky VI… Really? … REALLY?
My prediction for the movie: pain.
Sometimes you get a movie that comes out that you love so much and when you watch it you wish the film would never end. Some time later you are elated to find out that they’re making a sequel. It comes out and totally rules. You are [...]
