Ever since Britain lost the war for independence against the United States, they’ve struck back in a dastardly way at our Yank pals across the world.

Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, that movie dealt with a bad dad racing throughout town to get the hottest action figure of the year and …
When it comes to Star Wars characters, I’ve always dug the real rebels. Not the Luke Skywalkers or the Yodas of that franchise, but the guys who did things their own way, no matter which side they were on. Guys like Han Solo, Boba Fett and Mara Jade. And in the new Star Wars animated series, it’s take a rebel …
Following yesterday’s artistic poster reveal, we have a new trailer for Jonathan Glazer’s latest film, Under the Skin. And boy is it artistic. So artistic in fact that, without the blurb, I would not have been able to tell you what the movie is about. In fact, I’m still not so sure. Last Updated: February 12, 2014
