AEOS Double Review: Prometheus and Rock of Ages
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 […]
Five Memorable Courtroom Scenes
I feel like I should be writing a “Phenomenal 5″ post for Keith of Keith and the Movies, who is currently keeping it real in none other than Paris, France right now. However, inspiration for this post spurned from finally getting around to a little movie called To Kill a Mockingbird. How I have not seen […]
Week of Favorites: Actors
The great thing about film is that there are so many aspects to appreciate, favoring specific tracks on soundtracks to cinematographers to performances to directors. Another great part about film is that it’s always evolving, introducing new actors, rehashing old story plots, improving technology. There are always new and old films to watch and rewatch, […]

In fact, Ghost Protocol was so good, that it holds the reigning title of best […]
Don’t Mind the Age Difference
So I was watching The Proposal the other night on FX (it was airing for the umpteenth time), and I couldn’t stop thinking about the 12 year age difference between Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Now there’s been a lot of paparazzi photos of the two of them and their “secret Texas wedding” and other crap filling the […]
December ’11: Entertainment vs. Oscar Hopefuls
While 2011 hasn’t been an altogether disappointing year for film, it hasn’t entirely sparked a whole new generation of moviegoers to enter the film arena, or blown away even the most dedicated cinefile. Now, that isn’t to say there haven’t been some gems found amidst the crap, or some really decent, fun movies that critics […]
