So, I saw Magic Mike today… not my kind of movie, apparently. I couldn’t even appreciate the dancing because it was all so stripper-club skeevy (and, you know, a bunch of dudes). And it wasn’t as much about ambition and … Continue reading
Saw Ted – the raunchy teddy bear comedy from Seth (Family Guy) McFarlan. It was rather funny in all the wrong (raunchy) ways and I laughed a fair amount. Definitely a movie for fans of the 80s (and that Flash … Continue reading

Saw Cabin in the Woods tonight – the movie about the college students who go off into the woods for a good time weekend to a mysterious CABIN IN THE WOODS (only to run into trouble)… and if you’ve seen … Continue reading
The movie John Carter has a boring, non-descriptive “could be anything” title is based on a series of pulp novels from the 1910s by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It looks like a dozen other big budget movies so the uninitiated might … Continue reading
