Let’s call a spade a spade, or to be more accurate, call Robert De Niro a talented actor who has apparently contracted an extremely virulent case of Cant-turn-down-scrip-itis. The Oscar winner has had a run of poor movie choices over the last couple of years, and while I’m definitely not saying that his latest pick, Luc Besson’s The Family (or is it’s …

Traditonally animated films are a rare sight these days, with the majority of such flicks being produced in the now more popular CGI technique. But seeing a 2D film with high production standards? Now that’s even rarer. Still, Japan happens to love that medium dearly, with Studio Ghibli being the current king of that genre. That’s the studio that’s responsible …

By all accounts, The Wolverine is a damn good film that has its own adamantium edge in a crowded market of superhero blockbusters. Well, for most of the time anyway, according to Kervyn’s review. Still, it’s the kind of film that has to tow a line between being accessible to enough age groups and remaining as true to the violent …

Man, no matter how you slice it, Earth is going to suck in the future. I blame that on older folks though, and also myself. Because I hate kids, and if I have to suffer in a world where I can’t afford a house, well screw them as well. Petty vengenace, hoooooooooo! Still, Elysium is looking like an orbital paradise …

And now it …

Now that a tag-team combination of Noelle and Kervyn have managed to give my enthusiasm for The Lone Ranger a clothesline from hell followed by a Stone Cold stunner, there’s not much else that I can look forward to in life. Except for one show, which has kept me glued to my screen ever since its current season wrapped up …

Despite finding herself on two separate panels at Comic-Con this weekend past, Jennifer Lawrence had a pretty low-key convention. She did make one quip about how you should watch X-Men: Days of Future Past because she’s naked in it (always a good reason), but other than that there wasn’t much from the usually ebullient starlet. Maybe that’s because she preferred to …
