So… The new animated film version of The Grinch is, at least, better than the Jim Carrey version. I mean, on the graduated scale of badness, it’s a few notches in the positive column. You just have to ask if … Continue reading
Mid90s is a new movie written and directed by comedian/actor Jonah Hill. It’s about skaters who hang out. In the Mid 90s. That’s it. End of story. Packing up and going home… Righto. So… umm… it stars a bunch … Continue reading
