August: The Dead Month of Movies?
For a year that was highly-anticipatory for film, January through April took its sweet ‘ol time passing through, delivering only one fairly memorable film–The Hunger Games–and made all us viewers wonder if 2012 was really going to deliver, or just release a few biggies during the summer and Oscar seasons. Finally, May rolled around and The […]
The Comic Book Movie Debate: the Serious, and the Not So Serious
I credit Christopher Nolan for sparking the ever-growing debate circling comic book films: colorful, or dark? campy, or serious? true to form, or realistically-based?

Three Final Weeks of Movies
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 […]
Batman Films Combined in Trilogy Poster
It’s been out for a little bit now, but I saw this poster and thought it was a great way to show the fluency of Christopher Nolan’s three Batman films, Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008), and this year’s The Dark Knight Rises. Normally, I don’t pull a picture or poster and write a […]
New Trailers: The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit

Scroll to the bottom to view the trailer and more information regarding it. It’s finally getting around that […]

He’s played roles in some big films as well as taken part in smaller projects that mean a lot to him. Instead of giving another biography about the dude, here’s a list of 10 facts (generated from […]
