I didn’t know what to expect from Mars Express when I sat down in the theater. I just knew it was animated sci-fi… didn’t know it was French nor did I know it would have this cool rotoscoped style. With … Continue reading
The action comedy The Fall Guy is a remake of a “classic” early 80s tv show… which apparently comes as a surprise to many. They both share the same premise, the same character name, and even the same truck, but … Continue reading
