Up: Pixar’s New Film is Heartfelt Magic (****)

by Andy

There is a scene in Pixar’s new computer-animated film “Up” where the entire life, from youth to old age, of our grumpy, square-jawed, prune-faced protagonist, Carl Fredricksen (Edward Asner), is played out in a matter of minutes. Accompanied by...

Dan’s Up Review (****)

by Dan

At this point, noting that Pixar does great work is like noting sunsets are beautiful or water is wet. After 10 years and a series of films which at their worst are very good, redundant praise almost goes without...

Alien Rumored to Have Caught R1B1 Reboot Flu

by Dan

Horror site Bloody Disgusting has broken a rumor that 20th Century Fox is planning on doing what many geeks and even film purists would call the unthinkable: remaking Alien. I’m fine with rebooting a franchise in general, but this...

The Curious Case of a Mr. Nobody Trailer

by Dan

Ok, so I totally ripped this sucker straight from CHUD.com, but I’m making no apologies because the trailer for Mr. Nobody looks intriguing to say the least and fantastic to say the most. Intriguing because Jared Leto looks normal...

So there’s a new poster for the upcoming all-odds-are-on-awful G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra that opens in August. It prominently features the lower anterior money-maker for Sienna Miller (aka The Baroness), two cordless Black and Decker Do-it-Herself drills, icy-hot...

Daredevil Reboot Gets Further Rumor-ized

by Dan

If you happened to watch the 4 season run of the critically acclaimed Battlestar Galactica over the last five and a half years, you’ll know Katee Sackhoff played Starbuck, the pissy, angry, almost utterly unlikeable tomboy who, in the...

Trailer Tuesday (Dan’s Pick): Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel

by Dan

All I can say is this: I “chip” you not. Oh, and this: The cutesy marketing braintrust that came up with these puntastic title needs to be sent to a lifeboat adrift in the Pacific so they can spread...

by Andy

I was perusing the web this morning and came across these “Twilight: New Moon” images at Entertainment Weekly’s website. I’ll be frank, I have no idea what is even happening in these photos, but my guess is Bella is...
