question of the day: Was Fox right to change the title of the upcoming film Neighborhood Watch?

Tue, May 08, 2012

It seems to me like an overreaction on Fox’s part…

That’s My Boy (redband and greenband trailers)

Difficult as it may be to believe, the greenband trailer for this film is far more offensive than the redband…

question of the day: Are superhero films popular because our real leaders have failed us?

Mon, May 07, 2012

If it isn’t a failure of faith in our leaders that has made superhero films so popular in recent years, just what is it about this moment that has caused a resurgence in superheroes’ popularity?

I’m guessing this now-franchise will only go away with its stars start dying of old age.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a French film anything like this before…

question of the day: Should films be altered for international release?

Thu, May 03, 2012

Why alter away what makes it different from what you’d see at home? Isn’t part of the charm of seeing a foreign film the taste of another culture you get from it?

Looks like just one more violent flick about vigilantism…

question of the day: Can you be a fan of a film or TV show you haven’t yet seen?

Wed, May 02, 2012

Is investing so much into a film or television series still unseen potentially setting oneself up for disappointment?

Fast Girls (trailer)

A film about women doing something other than trying to find husbands.

question of the day: What could Fox have possibly done to the remastered Chariots of Fire that would warrant a review embargo?

Does Nick Fury show up in a new postcredits tag scene attempting to recruit Olympic runners Harry Abrahams and Eric Liddell for his Avengers Initiative: Time Tunnel?
