Subtle Bluntness

I’ll link you to the whole box office report, but for those interested in my take on the travesty that was The Incredible Hulk, I’ll paste the cromulent part below. Feel free to click on through to Den of Geek, though. There’s lots of other good stuff there to keep you edutained. The Incredible Hulk [...]

Have you seen the advertisements for the 2007 Steven Seagal classic, Urban Justice, on Spike TV? They picked up the cable rights as part of their Movies for Guys series, and as such, it’s the only Movie For Guys they’ve had on that has more than one person in it you’ll recognize. I’m sure it [...]

Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) is a normal high school student, trying to save up for a car, get good grades, and get the girl of his dreams, Mikaela Banes (Megan Fox). Unfortunately, the old Camaro his father buys for him turns out to be an interstellar robot and Sam finds himself in the middle of [...]

Because of popular demand, or because I don’t have any ideas about anything to write at the moment, I’m going to link you guys to some of the other Den of Geek pieces I’ve written from back in the day.  Well, at least the ones I can still find, because on that website there’s no [...]

Two things are going to unfairly harm this film: its Britishness and the timing of its release. HOT FUZZ has the misfortune of being released here in America only a few short days after an attention-craving stalker maniac shot 32 people on the campus of Virginia Tech University.

Yes and no.Troma films are incredibly low-budget flicks that cross a variety of genres. Assuming you count comedy spoofs, gratuitous lesbianism and boob shots, AIDS jokes, [...]

Welcome to a sick and twisted future, where gold is worthless (because of the mountain of it they found in Antarctica) and the world economies have been destroyed, shattering nations into hundreds of nation states and putting evil people like the Governor of California at odds with even more ruthless and evil people like the [...]

It’s not a well known fact, but Mr. Movie Jesus Troy Anderson and myself not only attended the same high school, we also graduated in the same year. As the last class to have a cool double-digit numerical abbreviation (at least until 2099), we were fortunate to avoid the ugly double zero of our progeny [...]

Back in the day, Walter Hill’s genius gang film THE WARRIORS was something of an instant classic, and it build in a way that it is no longer possible for films to grow. In the olden days, on the grindhouse circuit, a movie could ride word of mouth, start out in a few theaters, and [...]

In the business I’m involved with here; you see a lot of trailers. Every movie you see, buy, or rent is chock full of mini-advertisements for other films. Sometimes you watch them, most of the time you don’t. However, after discovering the film I’m about to review, I’ve made a conscious decision to watch every [...]
