Another ‘Meh’ Poster for The Lovely Bones

the_lovely_bones_3As I have said many times before on AATM.com, The Lovely Bones is one of my favorite novels of all-time. When it was announced Peter Jackson was directing, I did a little Hobbit Jig of Joy. The Lord of the Rings trilogy and King Kong are fantastic movies, so I wholeheartedly trust Jackson with this novel I hold dear. But my Sixth Sense of Cinematic Doom has been at DEFCON 1 after seeing the how and what of The Lovely Bones marketing plan. This movie is flying under the radar and I’m not sure why. Is it pre-Oscar stratagem, or do the brains at the studio just not in sync with my expectations? I suppose we wont’ know until the film is released and we meander into The Golden Globes and The Academy Awards, but for now, here’s another lackluster poster for the movie.

Movie Review: The Last Airbender (F)

By ANDY MORGAN There are very few movies I completely and utterly abhor. Generally, I can usually find something positive or likeable in a film, even if said cinema is receiving disgust and scorn en masse from most fall-in-line movie critics. I relish the truth that I don’t always see eye-to-eye with most critics and [...]

Movie Review: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (B)

By ANDY MORGAN Making fun of Twilight fans and bemoaning Stephanie Meyer’s novels and the subsequent movies is almost as easy as drumming up sarcastic jabs about Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton or Miley Cyrus. There’s no effort required. It’s easy. And it’s also out of control. It’s almost as popular to dump on the vampire-werewolf [...]
