Avatar star Sigourney Weaver was the guest host on Saturday Night Live last night and she brought a moderate amount of funny (although she looked amazing for 60 years old. Did you know she is 60?!). The standout sketch was the SNL Digital Short Laser Cats 5 where Weaver reprised her role as Ripley from [...]

I recently went to a screening of the new Warner Bros. The Book of Eli. It wasn’t a film that would typically be on my radar of ones to watch, but I was excited to preview it because of its enigma and its action scenes. The film, starring Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman and Mila Kunis, [...]

Last night I went to an early screening of It’s Complicated starring Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin. I wasn’t entirely sure I was going to enjoy the film, mostly because I surely don’t fit into its key demographic, but I left the theater feeling happy, hopeful and hungry! Basically, Meryl Streep can do [...]

Peter Jackson’s dramatic sci-fi flick District 9 was the number one film in the country this weekend, so I figured I’d give it a whirl. There had been a ton of viral marketing and buzz surrounding the film and I was in the mood for some shoot ‘em up action after growing ovaries during The [...]

The Time Traveler’s Wife was based on the best-selling book of the same name, but unfortunately the film didn’t live up to the hype. Before fans attack me, I have to admit that I have not read the book so my opinions are based solely on a screening of the movie. The film follows the [...]

Not gonna lie, I was born the year that the film Tron came out in 1982, but I’ve always had a weird interest in it. Maybe it’s because I’ve never seen it, just seen all the parodies everywhere. Well, Disney is putting out a sequel/prequel called Tron Legacy in 2010 and the special effects are [...]
