In his latest film John Hillcoat delivers a fantastic period-piece film based on the book “The Wettest County in the World” (an account of the true-life tales of author Matt Bondurant’s family). Titled simply Lawless this adaptation chronicles the events around the Bondurant family at the pinnacle of their prohibition-era moonshine business and how three Virginia brothers became legends unto themselves. Historically party to and at the center of the infamous “Franklin county moonshine conspiracy” the trio faced opposition on many fronts not just from the authorities but also bigger and similarly illegal outfits. A wild ride for any film fan the events depicted become even more engaging as it’s revealed that their story…

Ohhh, Look…'Bat Man of Shanghai' from Cartoon Network
Lots of our favorite comic/super heroes have evolved since their first issue or appearance and usually it’s the bold and creative changes that make the most impact. Case in point; Batman has had more face-lifts than Joan Rivers but each time his reinvention or re-envisioning is something special. The video below is no exception. Sure we’ve seen Batman in the future (Batman Beyond) Batman in the past (Gotham By Gaslight), and now we have a new anime version that is as exaggerated as it is outstanding. No words, just watch… 100% dope right? This is part of DC Nation only on Cartoon Network and I soooo want to see more. Currently there is supposed to be a new…

Sweet Trailer…Joe Dante's 'The Hole'
Well here’s a blast from the past…and I’d say doubly so since I sat down and (with immense joy) revisited Innerspace this weekend. It’s been a while since we heard about The Hole and unfortunately this is where this film has been since its completion in 2009. Joe Dante is known for delivering fun films that contain equal amounts of comedy and danger and like Gremilns, The Hole takes a kid-centric horror story just a bit darker than you’d expect. Plus it was filmed in 3-D so there’s that too. For those of you who are still wondering what The Hole is, you’ll find everything you need to know the…

Ohhh, Look…Superb Viral Trailer 'Looper the Movie the 8-Bit Game'
With September right around the corner, fans excited for Rian Johnson’s awesome looking sci-fi thriller Looper don’t have to wait too much longer (it hits theaters on Sept 28th btw). But to hold you over until next month comes this clever viral 8-bit video for Looper the Movie the 8-Bit Game. More than just a series of pics from the trailer digitized in classic 8-bit visuals (well 16-bit would be a little more accurate), this inspired creation really calls back to the classic days of the NES (or SNES) replete with music and all. So don’t let me ruin the throwback fun to be had…enjoy this neat video if you…

G-S-T Review…Hit & Run
So, shocking news: Hit & Run is kind of a blast…go figure. Dax Shepard has, in fairness, made a movie before (2010’s Brother’s Justice, which sounds delightfully, suspiciously odd), so the man isn’t totally green in the realms of screenwriting and directing. All the same, permit me my surprised reaction. It’s late August, the film co-stars Tom Arnold, and Shepard remains best-known for his role in the MTV series Punk’d and Without a Paddle. Those aren’t exactly the kinds of credentials that inspire confidence in the jaded, but Shepard and co-director David Palmer use the aces hidden in their sleeves to great effect. Color me tasteless– Hit & Run works.…

G-S-T Review…Premium Rush
Every summer we are introduced to some incredible blockbuster movies. Some are memorable and others, not so much. Some fly under the radar and surprise us at a time when we need a refreshing change. There is always a big push during the final weeks of the summer as movies fight for box office attendance. This summer has been nothing less than stellar with some of the blockbuster hits delivering in spades. But what about the smaller budget films, that aren’t Indie flicks, but aren’t of the $200 million dollar variety. Premium Rush falls somewhere in the middle of everything with a modest budget, by Hollywood standards. It’s a refreshing…
