Hubby and I had a movie marathon last night. After watching a few depressing movies, we decided to watch Leap Year to lighten the mood a bit before going to sleep. I’ve always love Amy Adams’ movies but this one, I’m afraid is not one of them. This …

The term “childhood rape” is thrown around a lot nowadays. It seems like every movie now in some way, shape, or form rapes somebody’s childhood. People threw it around when Bay’s “Transformers” came around or when Lucas made the prequel trilogy. I myself felt the epitomy …

“Cosplay Complex,” an anime series about girls who compete in cosplay (dressing up), is raunchy is every sense of the word. Even though
it’s classified solely as comedy anime, it did not make me laugh at loud once. This extreme lack of humor is probably why there are only three
episodes. …

I watched this movie and will admit that it took a little while for me to start liking it at all. I thought that it was a little frivolous at first ,and all the way through as a matter of fact. Lindsey Lohan is an okay actress, but certainly …

A couple years ago, my wife and I thought we would be smart and, rather than spending money renting movies, we would just buy a new movie every couple of weeks so it would be in our DVD collection.

Ok, the first A Nightmare on Elm Street was an interesting movie with an interesting premise. Never seen the second so I can’t comment on it, but the third one is just, well, silly.

As a child, I remember watching The Fabulous Dorseys, a 1947 motion picture, all the time. It was constantly on late night, and as a night owl, it was something I saw quite frequently. With the advent of cable, I haven’t seen it even once.
The Fabulous Dorseys …
