Oi Ladies! Grab your credit cards. The wonderfully intelligent and clearly genius people over at Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas via their merchandising company Mondo released yesterday a 24″x36″ screen print of the poster from the Ryan Gosling film Drive. Think of the possibilities? I heard someone say pillowcase. Did I mention I’m moving and I need …
Drive Ryan Gosling – Dream House Daniel Craig – In Time Justin Timberlake on DVD – Hitting a DVD or Blu-Ray player near you today.
I’m sooo over remakes, I really struggled with having this discussion. Really how long is this going to trudge on? We finally finished doing the Asian remakes, at least as I type this. Nevertheless, here we go, 1985’s Fright Night is getting to join all the other in the remake race. According to the internet …
My fiancé’, Ryan Gosling’s band, Dead Man’s Bones, released a new version of their single, In The Room Where You Sleep. Sans the children’s choir this time out, I still like it.

Directed by Andrés Muschietti 2013 I’ll just say this right off, I’m a big fan of Guillermo del Toro, so I came into Mama with bias. Technically this film was not directed by Guillermo, but by Andrés Muschietti, who actually co-wrote and directed a Spanish short by the same name in 2008. However, when you …
We laughed, we cringed, we booed and we laughed some more, because it’s us. That’s we do. I always procrastinate with this list because I see dozens upon dozens of films each year and I’m always somewhat unmoved lately that is. I long for the days of Jason and Freddie. There are just no good …
Juan de los Muertos (original title) Directed by Alejandro Brugués 2012 How can a film go wrong when you include Sid Vicious crooning Sinatra’s ‘My Way’ on its soundtrack I ask you?
