    The Big Picture: Baggage

    I'm curious about something, for the people who say they prefer objective reviews and without any baggage and that's how "reviews should be", what if I prefer reviews that analyze the politics of a film? Like for instance after Dark Knight Rises(and Dark Knight to a lesser extent), I was...

    Escape to the Movies: Ender's Game

    I didn't realize you had to have killed someone to qualify for the title of "horrible human being", instead of you know acting like one. It's not like that's a description that can fit lots of assholes in the world. He does have the right to do that, and I have the right to call him a...

    Double Vision

    I was truly astounded by horrible Sherlock Holmes 2 was. I greatly enjoyed the first film, and was even looking forward to this one, Robert Downery Jr., a "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes, yeah I was prepared for it to be mediocre but...it was just a failure on so many different levels, the...

    Helpless

    I really, really don't want to see this movie for a lot of the things mentioned, as someone who has tried for years to be socially aware of the privilege I get in America for being white, the fact that people are making these movies completely genuine just enrages and saddens me. But I also do...

    The Big Picture: Hollywood History 101 Supplemental: The Code

    I really enjoyed the summarization of Movie History in America, granted I knew a fair bit about most of it before, but I like having these fun concise videos to link to my friends now.

    Escape to the Movies: Cowboys and Aliens

    I saw it, and I was underwhelmed. Granted I tend to agree with Movie Bob on a fair bit, and wasn't expecting to love it. Best thing about it was me and my friends whispering to each other the whole time. It didn't captivate me with the Cowboys, and the whole alien bit was... uninspiring. And it...

    The Big Tease

    I'm looking forward to Dark Knight Rises and Avengers, and the trailers did exactly what they were supposed to do for me: Get my little fangirl heart excited and pumping. Spider-man is actually a tough sell for me, mainly because I never found him interesting, and the trailer did not inspire...

    Escape to the Movies: Captain America

    Saw the movie twice so far and loved it. Okay about the whole patriotism take for the non U.S. Audience. I've always been a Captain America fan, and while American, I have taken issue with quite a lot of things my country has done in the recent and not-so recent past. I'm always cautious of...

    Escape to the Movies: Captain America

    I've been waiting for this movie eagerly ever since it was announced, because Cap and Iron Man are my two favorite Marvel Heroes (besides Deadpool) because they provide superb contrasts. They got Tony Stark the snarky alcoholic self-loathing narcissist right, can they get Steve Rogers sincere...
