Director Ridley Scott has a lot on his plate at the moment. He’s currently out and about doing press rounds to promote The Martian, starring Matt Damon as an astronaut stranded on… Mars, which was very well received following its screening at the Toronto International Film Festival; and it’s a timely return to form for the legendary director because he’s also …

Seth Rogen: He’s that funny dude with the odd laugh, right? That’s pretty much the Rogen that audiences know, but beyond being almost murdered by Jonah Hill during the apocalypse, he’s an actor with a hand in various other projects. After Neighbors (Or Bad Neighbors as it was called here) managed to rake in over $268 million worldwide last year, …

Throw in the cynical Fox Mulder and his skeptical partner Dana Scully and you have a serious cult following for what was a truly great show! I consider myself one of those big fans of …

While Kervyn and I may clash on a number of topics (such as our long-standing debate on how to pronounce the name of M Night Shalakashka properly), one thing we do quite often see eye to eye on when I’m standing on a ladder is movie music. Specifically, our long-standing love affair with Daft Punk, the electronic music duo of …
