Yesterday was a big day for trailers as we saw the Disney answer to a Pixar film, a new Robert Zmeckis film, and the latest awesome offering from one Quentin Tarantino. Well after much anticipation and some highs and lows of the casting process comes the first trailer for what looks like another QT classic. It looks GREAT…Enjoy! Starring Oscar-winners Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz and Oscar-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio this follow-up to Inglourious Basterds can be expected to be equally saturated in great writing, superb acting and memorable characters/exchanges. Oh, man we can’t wait for this!! The Weinstien Company and Columbia Pictures have Django Unchained (“the D is silent“) scheduled to hit theaters this Winter on…

Sometimes traffic can be a blessing.…

The 82nd Academy Awards: Na'vi for "Suck it, Cameron"
Well boy was I very very impressed with the Oscars last night. While I’m not going to do a very thorough recap of the Oscar, I’ll simply say that they again were an amazing success. Following a similar path to the look and feel of last year’s show (hosted by master-classman Hugh Jackman), the 82nd Oscar ceremony went a slightly more funny route but still retained oodles of class.

So while I’m not going to give the nominees, the winners and an entire dissertation of my thoughts, here’s a quick rundown of…
