Brainwashing 101
I know I’m a bit late in posting this, but I finally got around to watching Evan Coyne Maloney’s documentary Brainwashing 101. I can’t speak highly enough about it. It’s a very sobering look at some of the evils of…

Hamminna Hammina
New Line has released a 6 minute trailer for the Extended Edition of Return of the King. It’s replete with spoilers (sweet, sweet spoilers that give me great hope) so don’t view it if that’ll present a problem. Otherwise, view…
Best Movie Review Title Ever

The Bourne Supremacy
My wife and I went to see The Bourne Supremacy two weekends ago and I’m just now getting a chance to jot down my thoughts on the movie. I heartily enjoyed it and, as a genre film, it succeeds fairly…
