The Hobbit: New Trailer Released!

By Kristin September 19, 2012 3 Comments

In lieu of Frodo and Bilbo’s shared birthday on September 22, The Hobbit‘s marketing plan goes into full swing as it releases the latest and most revealing trailer for the first third of films. This trailer certainly includes some new material that makes it come off as a bit of an action flick. We also get […]

AEOS Review: The Dark Knight Rises

By Kristin July 24, 2012 21 Comments

Not Avengers. Not The Hobbit. Not the first of The Hunger Games or the last of Twilight produced the most anticipated hype for movies in 2012. I still believe that The Dark Knight Rises was the most anticipated film of the year. You can even add in a Tom Hooper and Quentin Tarantino flick near Oscar movie season, and I still hold […]

Three Final Weeks of Movies

By Kristin July 3, 2012 21 Comments

I was a little inspired after seeing Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, and I thought it would be a cool to ask myself–and all of you out there–the following questions: What movie would you watch if you had only 3 weeks left to live? Dodge and Penny had only 3 weeks left, and […]

Ten Reasons I Enjoyed Seeking a Friend for the End of the World

By Kristin July 2, 2012 14 Comments

1) Kiera Knightly played a modern-day person. From playing Elizabeth Swan to Elizabeth Bennet, Kiera Knightly has played every period-piece role under the sun. Some, good; some, not so good. Finally, someone–specifically first-time director Lorene Scafaria–decided Knightly could take another stab at playing a character set in modern time (yes, I know Knightly’s had a […]

AEOS Double Review: Prometheus and Rock of Ages

By Kristin June 21, 2012 21 Comments

I suppose I couldn’t pick two more different movies to be reviewing together, but having seen both this past weekend and having each fresh in my mind, I decided to double up on this review. Prometheus Well, I think I’ll always be catching up on movies. I have never seen any of the Alien films until last Friday, when […]

If My Life Were a Movie

By Kristin June 14, 2012 20 Comments

What if your life were a . . .  movie? OK, I agree . . . that’s a highly implausible possibility, but who says we can’t be dreamers? I’m not one for self-indulgence, but every now and then, it’s fun to imagine what my life would be like if it were a movie . . […]

AEOS Review: Snow White and the Huntsman

And . . . I’m back! It’s felt like forever since I blogged on AEOS, and I’m happy to be back after a very rough month. How’s everyone been? I’ve been able to check out posts by several of you when I’ve found the time. Bear with me as I get my footing again these next couple […]

I’m Just a Boy Saying No Means No

By Kristin March 19, 2012 8 Comments

Last night, I caught The Break Up on TBS and watched it because I hadn’t seen it before, and I knew Jenn Anniston and Vince Vaughn didn’t end up together in the end. Consensus? Annoying in parts, but altogether, a sense of reality in it that I appreciated. Then I started thinking through what other films didn’t […]

Love Week: My Theory about the Mother in HIMYM

By Kristin February 17, 2012 20 Comments

This week, I have strayed from my usual format–I’ve been late in posting, and I’m only on my measly third post for the week *shakes head in shame*. Regardless, I feel like there’s a post I need to write about, so in the spirit of love (with it being Love Week here), I am writing […]

Love Week: Singing Bits I Love in Film

By Kristin February 15, 2012 12 Comments

With only a few hours left in the day, I’m struggling to get a second post out during my “Love Week” here at All Eyes on Screen. Multiple things have kept me MIA from AEOS lately, so I’m going with the thought, better late than never, right? So yesterday, I posted about my 10 favorite […]
