Trailer of the Week: ‘Maniac’
Elijah Wood looks like a sweet boy and he plays such beloved characters like Frodo in the The Lord of the Rings. He has also showed us that he can do comedy really well via Wilfred. But when he plays crazy, he goes for the gold. His sweet puppy dog eyes can get so wide...
‘Fast & Furious 6′ Does Ridiculous Really Well
Let’s face it. When the end of the world comes the only thing that will survive are cockroaches, Cher, Twinkies, and the Fast and Furious franchise. At this point in the game, do the movies even need a plot? There isn’t a need to put reason into amazing high octane, gear shifting, car commercial malarky...
‘The Hangover 3′: The Most Hangoveriest of Them All
It’s difficult to expect a lot from a third installment of a raunchy comedy franchise (remember American Pie: The Wedding?). You may argue that by the time it reaches the third installment it has overstayed its welcome. In fact, creating a comedy franchise in general is quite a task, but if you find the right...
When Benedict Cumberbatch Takes an Evil Shower, You Have to Watch
In the wake of Damon Lindelof‘s confession of Alice Eve‘s gratuitous underwear scene in Star Trek Into Darkness, J.J. Abrams recently appeared on Conan and let us in on another gratuitous scene: Benedict Cumberbatch taking a shower…an evil shower.

16 Things I Took Away From the new ‘Wolverine’ Trailer
There’s a new trailer for The Wolverine. Let’s watch it. I’m excited for this.

Workout Song of the Week: ‘Cotton-Eyed Joe’ by Rednex
This week’s workout song, “Cotton-Eyed Joe” is dedicated to the gang over at the New Girl as it reminded me that I had the maxi-single of this hit on casette. A “Where are they now?” special is long overdue for the Burning Man/Haight St./steampunk homeless hybrid known as Rednex. Rednex – Cotton Eye Joe from...
Trailer of the Week: ‘Fruitvale Station’
Fruitvale Station (formerly known as Fruitvale) was praised at Sundance and it is already generating bushels of early Oscar buzz…because it’s never to early for that. All of this hype may be valid because 1.) the true story it is based on is layered with intrigue, 2.) Michael B. Jordan and Octavia Spencer are wonderful...
‘Star Trek Into Darkness’: The Ultimate Moviegoing Scavenger Hunt
Star Trek Into Darkness opened in theaters yesterday and it pretty much marked the start of the summer blockbuster season (because Iron Man 3 certainly didn’t). Director and the greatest fanboy of them all, J.J. Abrams pretty much set the bar for summer blockbusters — and he set it high. Real high. Star Trek Into...
