The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit Series Brought in a Cumulative 6 Billion Dollars

The numbers are in, and they are astounding. Truly mind-numbing. Domestically and internationally, both The Lord Of The Rings trilogy and the recently concluded The Hobbit trilogy brought in an astronomical 3 Billion dollars each for a total of almost 6 Billion dollars. If the Lord of the Rings trilogies were a country, then with $5.85 Billion it would fall right behind... read more

Powers, a New Show Exclusively On Playstation Network, Is Bloody Awesome

Alaric Anderson

March 22, 2015
Filed in: TV Reviews


Powers is a new show, but not so new to those who remember Heroes. Powers is essentially the same type of show as the 2006 TV show Heroes, although it generally has a different feel. This is because Powers is not a rip-off of Heroes but is actually a TV adaptation of the comic series, "Powers". It is bloody awesome, and for a first show for Playstation, they did a truly... read more

Where are all the young male action heroes these days? Back in the 1980s and 1990s, we had a slew of brawny action stars: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, Mel Gibson, Jean Claude Van Damme, Harrison Ford, Steven Seagal, Tom Cruise, the list goes on. In the 2000s, those stars were waning at the box office, but they were still making action... read more

Movie Review: The Wolf of Wall Street, A Dark and Outrageous Comedy Based On A True Story

Joe Augustine

March 8, 2015
Filed in: Movie Reviews


On the surface, The Wolf of Wall Street is a dark comedy character study that is soaked in grime. Adapted from the memoir of the same name by the real Jordan Belfort, the script by Boardwalk Empire creator Terrence Winter uses voice-over narration as a framing device (like Goodfellas) in order to allow Belfort's story to unfold "in his own language," so to speak. Both the... read more

Original content war between Amazon and the movie industry heats up, Amazon promises 12 new movies each year

Look out, Netflix, here comes Amazon! With the great successes of almost every venture Amazon has attempted to take on, from a 3D-ish cell phone to the partnership with USPS to deliver packages on Sunday, Amazon is started to look a lot like Google in the way of Ambition and nothing like Microsoft who seems pleased with un-ingenuity and the same-old same-old.

Two recent vampire movies that are unexpectedly fantastic

Alaric Anderson

September 9, 2014
Filed in: Movie Reviews


This week I have watched not one, but two vampire movies that I was surprised how great movies they were. I am a huge vampire fan, but of course I generally despise the Twilight fanfiction crap (although I admit I watched them anyway). Vampires do not "sparkle in the sunlight"; they burn viciously! One of my favorite movies of all time is Underworld. However, the movies I... read more
