Iron Man 2 Trailer Released

Posted by: Craigo In: Cool Links| General| Movies

Some awards were given last night at the Academy Awards, but when they got back to the interesting part (the commercials) you would’ve been able to catch the rowdy new trailer for Iron Man 2.
I have to say it doesn’t make me want to see it anymore than the last trailer did, but that’s ok [...]

Nolan to Help Superman Return (Again)?

Posted by: Craigo In: Cool Links| Movies| TV

As a child, my cape sometimes was replaced by a baseball bat to be He-Man, or a belt to be Batman, but by the time I was 25 I grew out of such childish things and just stuck with Superman. I currently have a Superman bed set. And not the one that I had as [...]

Better Avatar Review Than Mine

Posted by: Craigo In: Cool Links| General| Movies

From the same guy who did the 70-minute Phantom Menace movie review that took me 3 weeks to finish (but pretty worth it) now attacks Avatar in much less time. He’s a little weird, but for those who weren’t enthralled by the movie’s plot of message beating, it’s worth a watch. Maybe skim through part [...]

Movie Review: (500) Days of Summer

Posted by: Craigo In: General| Movies

(500) Days of Summer
Rated PG-13
Runtime: 95 minutes
Directed by Marc Webb
Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel
Nominated for 2010 Golden Globe Best Picture – Comedy or Musical
This semi-indie romantic comedy starts right off with the narrator saying “This is a story of boy meets girl. But you should know up front, this is not a love [...]

I haven’t heard of this prior, but the short clip from the mockumentary Four Lions by Chris Morris, is surprising in both its topic and level of humor. It will be premiering at the Sundance Film Festival.
We unfortunately live in a world where humor about terrorists/Islam can get you murdered, so it’s nice to see [...]

Jim Gaffigan: Beyond the Pale on Netflix

Posted by: Craigo In: General| Movies| TV

I thought I’d do some quick reviews of movies that are available on demand for Netflix. The pickins are a little slim, but if you’re like me you forget to mail back the movies you just watched for about 3 weeks. I think I just mailed back a movie that I had gotten when it [...]

Netflix Streams A Punch in Face

Posted by: Craigo In: General| Movies

Netflix, of which I’m a big fan, took another hit from the movie studios today. While it looked to be the reasonable answer to the digital age in movies as iTunes was to music, apparently they won’t be going about this without a fight.
You may recall recently, new releases are beginning to be removed from [...]

Stay Warm with the Cult Classic “Out Cold”

Posted by: Craigo In: General| Movies

For almost every holiday or season, I have a movie tradition that sort of kicks it off. One of the few I hadn’t found one for was winter itself. This winter, in particular, I was needing some themed escapism while my face regained feeling. Christmas pretty much takes all the good movies for winter, so [...]

New Trailer for the Un-Superhero

Posted by: Craigo In: General| Movies

As a fan of superhero movies and a lifelong wearer of a towel as a cape, my interest had to be peaked by the upcoming movie “Kick Ass.” It’s about regular folks that decide to put on costumes and become superheroes..much like my entire life before I was 12. Ok before I was 27.
The first [...]

Netflix to Stop Renting New Releases?

Posted by: Craigo In: Cool Links| General| Movies

Is Netflix really going to stop renting out new releases? Well…actually yes and no.
I’m a huge fan of Netflix..they’ve gotten their delivery system down to a science, and with their on-demand movies it really is a bargain at 14.99 (16.99 with BluRay) a month.
So why the heck would they stop renting new release movies? What [...]
