Looper is an ultra sleek, sophisticated tale of time-traveling that unravels with such complexity and wit that it undoubtedly gives the sci-fi genre a run for it's money. It is riddled with mind-bending time-travel story-lines that will make you replay the events...

As soon as someone reblogged the torturously anticipated trailer of Park Chan-Wook's (J.S.A., Vengeance Trilogy) U.S. debut film, Stoker on Tumblr, I jumped faster than Tom Cruise jumped on that couch and pressed play. Immediately into the seconds of the trailer, the soundtrack and the look to the film screeched an unholy volume of Park Chan-Wookness that made me devour the straw...
It seems like Dredd 3D came out of nowhere. Maybe it's because I stream all my tv shows instead of watching them on tv, but I haven't seen a single trailer of Dredd till i youtubed it myself. Although I haven't seen the first forgettable Dredd (Judge Dredd) movie starring Stallone, I was quite excited about this revision of the film starring Karl Urban ( i was like who? ) and none other than Olivia Thirlby (why did they...

David Ayer has written (Training Day, S.W.A.T) and directed (Harsh Times, Street Kings) numerous films related to the drama of the law enforcement and still it seems like he isn't tired of the same old story-lines. To make his third film, End of Watch have a new breath of seemingly fresh air, he used...

I'm amazed that I waited till I was 23 to finally watch Pretty in Pink (1986). I almost died from every single shot, line, character that was sewn so neatly together to teenage dream perfection. It made me realize that Pretty in Pink encased the 80's like the The Perks of Being a Wallflower (out this week) did for the 90's. It gushes and oozed of high school nostalgia from the...
Postercollective just posted up some of Lauren Rolwing's revision of classic foreign film (with the exception of Grey Gardens) posters that take on an abstract aesthetic rather than mundane montage formats that we're used to seeing nowadays. I'm glad to say that I've watched almost all of these films and each of them are a force of art that needs to be recognized to the highest standard.

Go On (NBC)
It's that time again! Fall TV season means new shows, new faces, and hopefully better story lines. Out of the many series that are premiering this fall, I have the most hope for at least three shows. Go On stars Matthew Perry as a Ryan King, a sportscaster coping with the loss of his wife. The show might stumble and struggle to keep people interested (maybe) but I'm excited to see what it has...
