Three Days in the Thick of BUMBERSHOOT

Three Days in the Thick of BUMBERSHOOT

As an annual sendoff to summer, Bumbershoot 2013 is a monumental celebration of the free spirit (ironically set on Labor Day) – a keyed up free-for-all of art, music, comedy, film and theater. The droves of Bumbershoot attendees (henceforth known as Shooters) yearned for the wealth of artistic expression, surging and forming into longer and...

"Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto" Says ROBOCOP Remake Trailer

"Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto" Says ROBOCOP Remake Trailer

I never saw the original Robocop back when I was a kid because, well, it was named Robocop. This newest string in a lineup of reboots though seems kind of promising and may just have enough of the right ingredients to get audiences in seats. Sony and MGM have just released the first trailer for...

Watch McConaughey and Harrelson Lead New HBO Series TRUE DETECTIVE

Watch McConaughey and Harrelson Lead New HBO Series TRUE DETECTIVE

Ahh HBO. You are a breathe of fresh air in a putrid pool of network television. You have signaled the turning of the tides, the relocation of true adult entertainment, providing the catalyst that has marked a significant reinvention of what TV could be. And you, like a fine wine, you only improve with age....

Out in Theaters: SHORT TERM 12

Out in Theaters: SHORT TERM 12

Another, more difficult, thing to take away is Cretton's interpretation of self-inflicted pain. Many wounded souls hurt themselves not to inflict pain but to make the pain go away. This…

Out in Theaters: RIDDICK

With reckless abandon, Twohy throws too much at the screen, desperately hoping for it all to stick. Fortunately for him, some of it does. There's enough absurdity to cull some…

Benedict Cumberbatch, known by many as the villain “John Harrison” in Star Trek into Darkness and by few as the leading man on BBC‘s Sherlock, has some pretty massive rumors swirling about his strangely shaped head of late.

Michael Bay Returns with First TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION Poster

Michael Bay Returns with First TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION Poster

After Michael Bay‘s alleged retirement from the Transformers franchise, a little bit of fancy footwork from the Paramount studio (and by fancy footwork I mean Heisenberg-styled drums of cash) has the man back behind the camera for Transformers 4, which is now officially titled Transformers: Age of Extinction. Although original-trilogy star Shia LaBeouf has stepped...

ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE Trailer is a Joke

ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE Trailer is a Joke

“It’s not scary,” reads my F review for All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, “It’s not funny. It’s not ironic. It’s white bread soaked in water. It’s such a dullard that it’s almost confusing. I really do think that [director Jonathan] Levine must have assumed that there was something ironic about doing exactly what we...
