Up, Up, and Away to Animation Genius!

Hello, Everyone!  I have a guest blogger today.  My friend, Scott Ellis, is a multimedia designer and a fan of really good movies so much so that I asked him if he wouldn’t mind being a Guest Blogger to review the latest Disney Pixar release (that’s getting all the critical nods it apparently deserves), Up.

Hannah Montana Vs Fast - Who Will Come Out On Top This Easter Weekend?

Last week, Fast and Furious blew away the box office taking in a whopping $71M.  With a production budget of just under $85M, the film is on track to make exceed all expectations.  Close behind grossing $33M in box office sales was Parmount’s Monsters Vs Aliens.  Not bad for either film, huh?  And then comes [...]


July 4th Weekend Blockbusters?

Two new major films take to the screen this weekend - Hancock starring Will Smith and Kit Kitredge: An American Girl starring an all-star cast of many. 
Hancock has an interesting twist to it.  It’s a story about a…get this…alcoholic super hero.  Is that an oxymoron or what?  The thought perplexes me so much that it’s the [...]

Enchanted - Truly It Is

I just spent two hours in a total fantasy world…and I loved it! I have not laughed nor smiled that “goofy” smile (in complete darkness with no one looking either) nor walked away from a movie with that “Boy! Do I feel good!!” feeling in a very long time. This movie gave me [...]


Fred Claus - I Could Take It or Leave It

Admittedly, I walked into the theater last night with high expectations.  I was enthusiastic that Fred Claus would be very similar to Elf.  Remember Elf from a couple of years ago - that HUGE Holiday movie with Will Ferrell?  The difference between Elf and Fred is that Elf was well-written and the story flowed.  Fred [...]
