5 Reasons why Movies are like Sex 2008-03-08 13:00:58 If this picture of Megan Fox does not get you to read the rest of this post, nothing will. I know this isn’t fair, that the pic is persuasion overkill but I wanted to get your attention.
1.) You have to pay for admission, one way or another.
2.) It usually happens when the lights are [...] Read more:Reasons
Weekend Theater Picks / Mar. 7, 2008 2008-03-07 10:33:31 The Picks.
10,000 B.C., The Bank Job and CJ7
Why I picked them.
That’s simple. 10,000 B.C. is the only epic film to come out in a while and it’s from the director of Independence Day. Though Emmerich’s films are usually more spectacle than substance, they are usually entertaining for the first watch. After that, the plot holes [...] Read more:Weekend
5 Essential Anime Films you need to View Pt.2 2008-03-06 11:00:27 This is part two of this series. I know I should have called it 10 EssentialAnimeFilms
you need to View but I realized after I had written the first post in the series that I had left out too many note-worthy films. There are other movies that I have heard about, Wicked City, [...]
New Watchmen Pics 2008-03-06 03:51:30 YES! These new Watchmen pics are fantastic and you can see that the characters are being taken seriously. Watchmen will be released on March 6, 2009 and after seeing these pics of The Comedian, Nite Owl II, Ozymandias, Rorschach and Silk Spectre II (they are in this order down below), I can not wait.

I Am Legend’s Alternate Ending 2008-03-06 00:50:12 I thought I Am Legend
sucked. The CGI was absolutely horrible and “the vampires” looked like sh*t. If you read the book like I did (three years ago) you really know how disappointing that travesty to great material was. Anyway, here is an alternate ending to the film. Its still not the ending to [...] Read more:Ending
The Incredible Hulk Trailer 2008-03-13 00:20:13 As promised, the first Incredible
Hulk trailer is up and online. Tim Roth is the only thing that really interested me in this trailer. I hope the subsequent trailers for this film change that opinion. With out further a due, here’s the trailer.

10,000 BC is not Politically/Genetically Correct? 2008-03-12 18:51:16 I found this on a site called dcmoviegirl this morning. Here is an excerpt from her review of 10,000 BC:
“Oh boy, where to begin?? Well, how about the fact the our two main characters are the only white people in a movie, within a SEA of people of color…INCLUDING THEIR OWN TRIBE. …Yes, you [...] Read more:Genetically

Review: 10,000 BC 2008-03-11 13:29:46 10,000 BC
A Film Review by Reginald Williams
Rating: 5/10
Review Date: 3/10/08
10,000 BC is Apocalypto super-lite. 10,000 BC is the popcorn, made for the masses version of Apocalypto. I wanted this film to be good, I wanted to enjoy it but I couldn’t. I never really had my hopes up after the second trailer for the film [...]
The Incredible Hulk teaser clip is up 2008-03-10 23:17:20 I can not wait to see the full Incredible
Hulk trailer this Wednesday at 9:56pm EST on television. The trailer will make its world premiere on network channels, including notables Spike TV and three MTV Channels. MTV.com will then have the trailer available for viewing after that. With the cast pedigree this film has (Edward [...]
Box Office / March 10, 2008 2008-03-10 21:50:52 Two new releases ruled this weekend at the Box Office
. Emmerich’s 10,000 BC scored the number one spot this weekend. The lackluster epic made $35.7 Million but you can expect a steep decline from that number next week. The new Martin Lawrence comedy, College Road Trip, brought in $14 Million for the number two spot. [...] Read more:March

Lucy Pinder hosts Television X 2008-03-15 12:00:10 Lucy Pinder
, a noted glamor model in Great Britain, has become the host of a British television channel that specializes in Austin Powers-like adult entertainment (the naughty “interactions” are skillfully covered up). You know what is going on but nothing explicit is ever on screen. For those familiar with Lucy Pinder

Weekend Theater Picks / Mar. 14, 2008 2008-03-14 16:18:49 The Pick.
Doomsday
Why I picked it.
A Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, Escape from New York clone with a hot chick and a virus thrown in. It looks empty and fun like AvP:R, Transformers, et cetera. It also has the virtue of being the only cool action flick coming out this weekend. Plus Neil Marshall of [...] Read more:Weekend
Review: Alien vs. Predator: Requiem 2008-03-14 12:00:50 Alien vs. Predator
: Requiem
A Film Review by Reginald Williams
Rating: 6/10
Review Date: 3/12/08
Alien vs. Predator: Requiem (AvP:R) is an 80’s action movie thrust into 2008. Unfortunately for AvP:R, most people in 2008 have grown out of mindless action films. When I watched AvP:R, I could clearly see the welcome reception it would have had and the [...] Read more:Alien

Robocop 4 2008-03-17 18:00:31 Hasn’t this horse been beaten to death already. The public has already endured two lackluster sequels and a watered-down television series. Maybe Metro-Goldwin-Mayer Studios Inc. (MGM) sat down, watched Robocop
: Prime Directives and thought: hmmm, there still is some good story that could be told about Alex Murphy if done right. If that’s the case, [...]
Box Office / March 17, 2008 2008-03-17 11:54:17 Dr. Seuss, a family house-hold name, propelled the children’s movie Dr. Seuss’s Horton Hears a Who to the number one spot this weekend with $45.1 Million. All hail The Seuss and the power of children’s films on the Box Office

Tropic Thunder Trailer 2008-03-19 13:31:24 I usually would not post a trailer for a comedy since they are a dime a dozen except the trailer for TropicThunder
was actually funny and indicative of a humorous film. I was given the heads up about the quality of this trailer by a Film-Book reader. I do not take his opinion lightly [...] Read more:Trailer

Blu-Ray DVD Player Prices on the Rise 2008-03-19 04:43:02 I saw this coming. With the High-Definition DVD War now over, Blu-Ray DVD players now have no competition, which means manufactures can sell Blu-Ray DVD players for any price they chose. Currently, Sony, Sharp and Samsung Blu-Ray DVD players are the highest they have been all year. Before HD-DVD died (or was killed rather), Blu-Ray [...] Read more:Prices

Weekend Theater Picks / Mar. 21, 2008 2008-03-21 15:43:27 The Pick
Tyler Perry’s Meet The Browns
Why I picked it.
This film is virtually generated a top spot at the theater this weekend. Horton Hear a Who will again be Number One of course but this film will crack the top five. There are no noteworthy films coming out this weekend. Most it not all of [...] Read more:Weekend

Snake Eyes Revealed 2008-03-21 09:03:29 The first pic of Ray Park as Snake
Eyes in the Stephen Sommers directed film of the popular 80’s cartoon G.I. Joe landed on the net last night.
Personally, I’m not looking forward to this film. It will not be as intense as Batman Begins or the upcoming The Dark Knight. The operatives and soldiers [...]
Cloverfield DVD 2008-03-20 13:50:56 I am renting this puppy the day (well maybe not “the day”) it comes out. I saw Cloverfield twice in the theater. Once with a blatherskite sitting behind me and once in an empty movie theater. I loved the ideas behind the film, the camera work and the eye candy. The film’s producer, J.J. [...]
Box Office / March 24, 2008 2008-03-23 19:10:59 Who knew? I did, that’s Who. Dr. Seuss’s Horton Hears a Who is Number One film in the nation for the second week in a row. It dropped 44.2% of its audience from last weekend. As I predicted, the Tyler Perry family drama Meet the Browns premiered very high, Number Two over the weekend [...] Read more:March

Battlestar Galactica: Caprica 2008-03-22 13:00:32 Yes! I love the new Battlestar: Galactica
series and I adore Battlestar Galactica: Razor. In my opinion Cain, Shaw, the second XO and Thorn should never have been killed off. Battlestar Galactica was a plague on Battlestar Pegasus. Once they met each other, all of the command staff of Battlestar Pegasus was killed off until [...]
VH1’s The Shot 2008-03-26 09:06:12 The Shot is a relatively new show on VH1 that ten aspiring photographers compete on through various contests to win the grand prize which includes a cover photo shoot, $100,000 and a spread in a notable fashion magazine. It sounds like just another reality show on a channel that should be playing more music videos [...]
