To get a bit mythological for a second here, it’s time to get our Janus (I said “Janus”) on today. Last week we looked back at the best of 2013, but now it’s time to look ahead as well to see what 2014 has in store for us. Yes, it may not be the geekgasmic convergence of awesomeness that is …
Big brother is watching you. A couple of decades ago, that might have felt laughable at best, but these days I can’t even tweet about my ass-gas without an FBI black ops team invading my room and telling me to get my hands in the air and wave ’em around like I do very much care. George Orwell saw …
With scene stealing turns in Pitch Perfect and the two Hunger Games flicks, plus a lead in the upcoming Lego Movie, Elizabeth Banks has been having a stellar run as of late.

Now, I just cry. But apparently I’m either in the minority, or the world is …
Despite me having absorbed knowledge of its existence through some kind of trans-Atlantic, pop cultural osmosis, I have never seen a single minute of The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show, the 1960’s American cartoon. Apparently there was a segment in there called “Peabody’s Improbable History”, and that’s now getting it’s own animated feature film, because why not? But hey, it’s got the voice talents …
Always two there are in a sequel. A villain and another villain. But one villain less so than the other my padawan. Yep, it looks like the Avengers sequel will be doubling up on the bad guy threat, as rogue ultra-AI and all-around evil robot Ultron won’t be alone. He’ll be getting a little bit of help in that film, …
