Dredd.

Tuesday, June 12th, 2012
It is a true Nerd tragedy that most American’s main exposure to the Judge Dredd franchise is solely Stallone-related.  J.D. is one of comics’ greatest characters, and has been gritty, twisted, and ultraviolent way before that kind of thing was cool. And now, thanks to the age of super cinema, Dredd finally gets another chance [...]

Attack the Block

Friday, January 20th, 2012
This has been a pretty monumental year in regards to horror-com-actioners (although this in itself is a bit of a misnomer, as almost all good horror movies have some humor). With films like Troll Hunter, Chillerama and Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil, gore-hounds everywhere have been treated to some of the best of these kinds [...]

Scott Pilgrim!

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Scott Pilgrim is the best! I checked out the movie this weekend, and it totally ruled. As a huge fan of the book, I was thrilled with the translation, and the action sequences and self-referential tone are pitch perfect.

“Green Hornet” Trailer

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010
As a fan of  both Michel Gondry and Seth Rogen, I have to admit, I am pretty stoked about this movie. Although the trailer wants to make it look like every other super hero movie ever, I just can’t help believe that the film itself will be something more. Then again, I am always wrong.
