Announcement: Go,See,Talk presents The Halloween Monster Mash!
If you’re anything like us over at Go, See, Talk! when it comes to things that go “bump” in the night, then October likely holds distinction as one of the best movie months of the year. No other thirty day stretch (and change!) across the span of the calendar represents and impels celebration of a cinematic genre so well as October; when the leaves start to turn and fall and pumpkins begin to come out in force, that’s the spirit of the season telling you to grab a group of friends and start up your horror movie marathons. So what better way to honor Halloween than with a month-long tournament…

FANTASTIC FEST Announces Second Wave of Film Programming Including 'Looper' and 'Sinister'
If you are at all familiar with the Austin cinema scene, the Alamo Draft House is a mecca to say the least. Home to a handful of film festivals (SXSW being one of the biggest) the more eclectic but equally high profile event is one Fantastic Fest; also known as the largest genre festival in the US. A melting pot of chills, spill, and kills, this Fest brings out the gore-hounds, midnight movie junkies and foreign film fans alike for 8 days of cinematic awesomeness. So while the fest can feature the likes of The Rza, Elijah Wood, and Nacho Vigalondo singing karaoke (yeah, that actually happened) it’s a pretty big draw for a pretty small Fest. This year…

Sweet! Just got a little heads up from the Pixar camp about the sequel to Monsters, Inc. It seems that Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan, that inseparable pair, weren’t always best of friends. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn’t stand each other. This sequel, or prequel really, Monsters University unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.
