'Skyfall' Starring Daniel Craig and Directed By Sam Mendes
It really is funny when you think about it.  In 1995 when James Bond was reinvented for modern times with Goldeneye and had of all people, M tell Bond that he was, if I'm not mistaken a "Sexist …

As I said before, the character of The Incredible Hulk is like instant pudding: impossible to screw up.  There can't be anything too difficult about a man who rages out into a giant green monster …

With the release of Captain America: The First Avenger now out, the comicbook summer of 2011 now comes to a close.  We had our ups with X Men First Class and our downs or at the very least dissapointments …

Show your rivals who's boss.
The Ballad of Gay Tony was a great add on for the Grand Theft Auto IV series.  It was fun and bright with big nights of glitz and action.  The Lost and the Damned replaces many of those aspects …

After seeing the Rocky movies and finally this, one of Stallone's many attempts to gain some notoriety outside of his Rambo and Rocky characters, I can only wonder if this is something he was tinkering …

Prince of Persia could be the start of another genre series of high action, special effect laden romps in the some vein as Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean films.  You got old tales of yore, …

Hulk (Widescreen 2-Disc Special Edition) (2003)
You know, screwing up the Hulk is like messing up instant pudding.  With pudding, pour mix into a bowl, add milk, stir, let cool and then eat.  Hulk is a guy who when he gets mad, grows into …
