The Mummy

Thursday, July 24, 2008

Tonight, in preparation for the release of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, I decided to take in The Mummy just so I could get in the mood for it again. If you are like me and have not seen these for some time, I recommend getting it off the shelf and watching it [...]

The Dark Knight: Was it Really That Good?

At 11:00 pm last night, my wife, another friend, and I crowded into our local cinema and waited anxiously for seating to begin. Finally at 11:40 we were allowed into the theater and took our seats and awaited the beginning of the movie that I have been waiting for three years to see. But was it worth the wait and hype?

Is Warner exploiting Heath Ledger in its Dark Knight campaign?

Today’s pressing moral question is: Is Warner Bros. exploiting the tragic death of Heath Ledger in its marketing campaign for The Dark Knight? And the answer, in my book, is: No. I say this with full awareness that big-budget studio productions need all the major marketing muscle they can get. And Warner has a right to recover [...]

By richd A few days ago, I watched Deja Vu on Starz. I happened upon it while channel surfing. I recognized the title and vaguely recalled the plot from the previews. I am a huge fan of Denzel Washington, Val Kilmer and Jim Caviezel so I gave it a shot. Plus I pay for the Starz [...]

But now the dust has settled and the film has come and gone it just clicked in my head… Oh my god! Crystal Skull was awful!! I remember back in 1981 [...]

Eragon was released in 2006 but I still love to watch this movie. If you are like me in any way, the mystical and mythological portions of the movie is the attractiveness of the film itself. This is a very family friendly movie and if you have not yet seen this movie, I would recommend [...]

By richd So I want to say that I am a big fan of superhero movies. Batman Begins, The Incredible Hulk, Hellboy, even My Super Ex-Girlfriend are something that I might not go to the theater to see but I will definitely get from my Blockbuster Total Access account or buy on DVD! With that said, [...]

Billy Bob Thornton pulls off another great job in this movie. And that coming from someone like me that is not big on BBT, I have to give the devil his due. He has been in so many movies from Tombstone to Bad News Bears to Bad Santa and played so many roles in between. [...]
