The One Man Not Talking About The Revenant
The one man in the world that isn’t talking about The Revenant is the man who wrote it. Thanks to his contract with the World Trade Organization, he’s not allowed to promote any project that would benefit him financially. So he can sell the books and cash the checks all day long but he can’t…

Top 5 Anticipated Adaptations of 2016
5: The Jungle Book I hope they get the animals right. It seems like the realism of the animals was important but the quick cuts in the trailer don’t inspire much confidence.

Now Broadcasting Coast to Coast!
To see posts older than this, check out our tumblr. There are a couple of posts there from 2015 and few more from before our 5 year hiatus. Not a whole lot to see. In fact you should probably just consider this the end of the site. I might even rework some of those newer…

Don’t Call it a Prequel – Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
An early “announcement” trailer for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them dropped today and while it’s light on details, it certainly maintains the Harry Potter movie charm. It’s only about two minutes long and most of that is black screen or title cards but enough is shown to see that this won’t be a…
