Autobots! Roll out bitches!
I saw Transformers: Dark of the Moon a week ago today. Normally you would have seen a review of it the very next day but this was not a normal week. Laryngitis decided to rear its ugly head and, literally, by the end of the movie I went from having that sexy Kate Mulgrew voice you get…

Super 8 + DBox = DBest movie experience ever
Alien movies are pretty much universally awesome. Even the bad ones have something going for them in the form of a grotesque, salivating creature bent on devouring some random buxom blond. Most of the time though, alien movies are just kick ass. When making an alien movie, you have two choices. Make the alien friendly…

I saw The Green Lantern on the brightest screen, in the blackest theatre
After a weekend hiatus from writing movie reviews to visit Kirk’s birthplace (oh and go to my cousins wedding), I’m back on the horse with one of the summers most anticipated comic book movies The Green Lantern. (Side note: if you were hoping I’d review Super 8 this past Monday, have no fear. I’m planning to see it at some…

X-Men: First Class – you got it wrong but I heart you anyways
Oh Lordy do I love me some X-Men. After Thor, it is probably my favorite comic book series. No offense to Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, etc. I adore you all but I had a particular hard on for X-Men growing up. So I’ll admit it. When I first heard that there was going to be an…

I prayed that Priest would be good…
It wasn’t. Wow. What a great way to kick off a review. More detail you ask? Well here ya go… To give you a little background, yes, Priest is most certainly a graphic novel adaption as so many sci-fi/fantasy films seem to be these days. It’s set in a world where apparently man and vampire have…

Thor can hammer me anytime
Holy shit do I love me some Thor. So stop here if you don’t want to read any spoilers…. 😛 When you grow up with Norwegian heritage there are a few things you learn very early on. One is how to make lefse with every single female relative you’ve ever had. Two is that lutefisk…

Sucker for Sucker Punch
{Spoiler Ahead! You have been warned.} Maybe I just really like to see girls kicking ass. Maybe I just have a really big hard on for Zach Snyder. Maybe it’s the fact that my Dad alternates between calling me Sweet Pea and Spike. Whatever. All I know is that I finally saw Sucker Punch on…

A “Super” Review
It’s been a while since I’ve done a movie review (Harry Potter/RED) of anything because quite honestly I’m one busy little hot nerd. But, when I saw the trailer for Super I just knew I had to see it. [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7g74Imj184] Super, as I’m sure you all know because you just watched the trailer, is the…

Great Scott Green Lantern!
I’m going to be blunt because, well, I’m in one of those moods. The new Green Lantern does not look promising. In fact, it looks terrible. Normally I would reserve judgment until a movie comes out but after seeing the trailer before Harry Potter, I’ve pretty much seen the whole movie. Ryan Reynolds was not…
