Review: Gamerz movie

February 18, 2007 by Dave

While researching my article on Gaming DVDs for one of our gift guides, I thought I had come across nearly all the movies done about gaming.

Inq. of the Week: Solid Snake Casting Call

February 12, 2007 by Bartoneus

I was like you up until January of this year, holding out and not watching for whatever reason. Then the season 1 […]

Bad News for Comic Movies

February 4, 2007 by Bartoneus

In our Casting Call Inquisition a few weeks ago, I voted for the Wonder Woman movie simply because Joss Whedon was writing and directing it. Thankfully the movie only got 2 out of 20 votes in our poll, as the news is now out that Whedon is off the job entirely! This is absolutely devastating, […]

The Top Reason to Choose Netflix (over Blockbuster)

January 16, 2007 by Bartoneus

In the last year many of my friends have started using Netflix, which really makes me happy because one of the best features of Netflix is their website and the friends features that it offers.  I have always had a big problem with them, though, because a lone friend of mine started using the similar […]

A short cut of Star Wars as if it were a silent film, to balance last week’s 40 minute long epic with lots of sounds.

Review: Pan's Labrynth

December 29, 2006 by spankleberry

Now this, this was a nice movie. Like Tim Burton only…. not cute in a creepy way. Billed as horror, well it had it’s moments. There was definitely some creep going on. There was some.. brutal, greusome moments. I had to hold milli’s head at parts and tell her when it’s over, while I was […]
