X-Men films are pretty much the types of movies that have high stakes for the cast of characters present. But in the upcoming First Class sequel, Days of Future Past, those stakes have never been higher. In fact, so much is on the line, that two generations of X-Men teams will be engaging in a fight to save reality. Sounds …
I think out of all the superhero films I’ve seen this year, The Wolverine would be my second favourite out of the bunch. Sorry Logam, but that final act dropped the ball compared to the stellar performance of Iron Man 3. That being said, The Wolverine was still a damn good movie. Did you miss out on seeing it though? …
Horror movies are pretty much quick cash cows. They’re inexpensive, quick to produce and don’t necessarily have to actually be good in order to turn a buck. We’ve seen a bunch of revivals over the last couple of years for popular icons of the 1980s/90s slasher market, from Freddy Krueger through to Jason Voorhees. Thing is though, Friday the 13th …
There are many things that Machete doesn’t do. He don’t text, he don’t tweet, and he definitely don’t rein in his more explosive tendencies (often times at the cost of some poor sap’s intestines).

With the involvement of The Avengers writer/director and all-round geek god Joss Whedon, as well as Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen of the brilliant Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog as …
If I had superpowers, I’d be a massive jerkass. Well, more than usual anyway. Fortunately for you, I don’t have super-powers. But these cinematic superheroes did. And they used them for a good cause. See for yourself after the jump. Last Updated: October 2, 2013
It’s hard to believe, but The Simpsons is now in its 25th season. What’s even harder to believe though, is that the show has been crap for the last 16 of those seasons and is still on the air. There’s no end in sight for the long-running animated series, so prepare for most likely another season of sub-par plots, Marge …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
