See the Way, Way Back early and free

We got a chance to check out The Way, Way Back at Sundance and absolutely loved it. Comedy mixed with heart and feeling set it apart from a lot of the rest of the films out there. Mix in a stellar cast including Steve Ca...

Sin City 2 release date pushed back

Huh. This is quite a shame. It seems Robert Rodriquez's tactic of trying to push two films into his busy schedule, Sin City 2 and Machete Kills, doesn't seem to be paying off. Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, once slat...

What the heck is this?

So this showed up in the mail yesterday as part of a promotion for an upcoming movie. What is it? It's a rat, I think. Its name is Subway Sammy and it talks when you push its stomach. So what movie is it from? That's where th...

Trailer: Kick Ass 2

A new zip-zap-zoom fancy trailer for the hyper-violent, hyper-curse-word nonsense sequel to Kick Ass has hit the webs. The trailer shows off more Jim Carrey funtimes while also teasing some detail bits about the ma...

New Releases, week of 6/22/13: Totes Stoked Edition

Stoker is finally out. I'm happy to see it finally hit home video because it had a limited run in theaters and its been a film I've wanted to see for awhile. Nicole Kidman's in it, and she's one of my boos. I could go as far ...

This second trailer for the third Riddick film, titled simply Riddick, doesn't show off too much new stuff from the last trailer, but that doesn't mean it doesn't get us excited. Once again it looks like Riddick is returning...

Trailer: Only God Forgives

The newest trailer for Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives is more "direct" (meaning helpful dialogue hints are sprinkled in) than the previously released international ones, but it still manages to pack a wallop. OGF t...
