If you’re ready to bring action and adventure to the comfort of your living room, June 2012 is packed with new DVD and Blue-ray releases to suit your needs. From ‘John Carter’ to ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows,’ we give you the run down of all the movies you’ll be able to take home this month.
May 17, 2012 Looks like it could be legit! According to this bootleg copy coming from youtube, Anchorman 2 should hit theaters next year! Watch the video, and have a laugh. It looks to be good!
Poor Barnabas Collins never stood a chance. Tim Burton’s ‘Dark Shadows‘ found itself clobbered to death over the weekend courtesy of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, who rode a perfect cocktail of hype and stellar word-of-mouth to an unprecedented second weekend. It’s no longer a question of whether or not ‘The Avengers‘ will be one of the biggest movies of all time, mainly because it already is one of the biggest movies of all time: after only nineteen days, it’s crossed the $1 billion mark. The question we should be pondering now is whether or not it will become the biggest movie of all time.
May 13, 2012 First, Happy Mother's Day! You can take all the famous television and movie moms out there, for my money the best mom ever is from 'Throw Mama From The Train'. This wasn't a huge movie despite having Danny Devito and Billy Crystal in the cast. The star of the movie, however, is mama.
May 7, 2012 We saw the Avengers on Friday night, and it was absolutely amazing. It was a really good show, and I'm not even a huge comic book guy. In case you've lived under a rock, or on Asgard, The Avengers is the best of the Marvel Comics all on the screen at the same time. I can't wait for a sequel. One thing I did learn is you'll get dirty looks if you try to crack a joke about the comic book world. Here's things you probably shouldn't say.
New mom is not the only role Jewel is tackling this year. The singer will be playing country music icon June Carter Cash, the wife of Johnny Cash, in a forthcoming Lifetime biopic about the late ‘Jukebox Blues’ songstress.
We knew it was going to make a lot of money. We knew there was a possibility that it would break box office records. What we didn’t know was that ‘The Avengers’ wasn’t just going to break the record for biggest box office opening of all time — it was going to smash it. Obliterate it. Pulverize it. Treat it like the Hulk treats puny human architecture. In three days, ‘The Avengers‘ took in over $200 million at the domestic box office.
It’s safe to say that Marvel’s ‘The Avengers‘ will explode the minds of every comic book geek who ever walked the planet when it hits theaters on May 4th. Not only is it going to rake in a ton of money, but it’s bound to make the receipts for ‘The Hunger Games’ and the last ‘Twilight’ movie look like the penny tray at a gas station.
Theaters are going to be packed to the brim with fanboys dressed as their favorite Marvel comic book characters and at least one or two very confused old people who thought they had purchased tickets to see ‘The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.’ Here are some signs that you’re taking the movie a bit too seriously.
Thanks to comic book superfan and fitness instructor Anthony Le, all of our geeky cosplay dreams have just come true with this spectacular Iron Man suit complete with moving parts. We want it!! How can we get one?
May 3, 2012 I admit it, I love super heroes. I'm not a fanatic in that I don't own comic books and I don't know every little thing about the hero universe. However, as a young boy growing up I couldn't miss a rerun of the old Adam West Batman series and I could not get enough of Spiderman in any capacity (I even watched 'The Electric Company' for their horrible Spiderman stories). The beauty of having a young son, who also loves Spiderman, Iron Man and heroes in general, is that I can get excited about them and hope everyone thinks it's just for him. However, I must come clean.
May 2, 2012 I've been watching the "Batman" movies since I was a kid. It started with Michael Keaton and ended up with George Clooney for a span of years. Things really got good when Christian Bale took over the role and the series was revamped with "Batman Returns." "The Dark Knight" was absolutely stunning, and "The Dark Knight Rises" looks to be just as good.
May 2, 2012 Cinco de Mayo is fast approaching. I know I should think of Mexican food and culture, and I do love tequila. However, the thing that came to mind when I realized how close we were to Cinco de Mayo is that I need to watch the Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short comedy 'Three Amigos' in the near future.
I realize that we're not talking an Academy Award winner here, but there are enough silly moments that make it a good way to spend a couple hours. Here are 5 of my favorite scenes:
