In just twenty four days (well 21 days for me :D), THE most anticipated movie of the year will arrive in theaters. There have been few movie events in the past decade, but for me, THIS would count as the one of the biggest one to date. In preparation for Man of Steel, I'll be …

Weekend Roundup: William Shatner’s The Captains
The Star Trek fever is full on this weekend. At least it seems like it is, though only a blockbuster THIS magnitude that an $84 mil four-day total is still considered a box office disappointment.

FlixChatter Review: The Great Gatsby (2013)
When I first heard about Baz Luhrmann's project to bring F. Scott Fitzgerald's most famous novel to life, I have to admit I wasn't too keen on the idea. Then I read that he was going to do the movie in 3D, which prompted an eye-rolling reaction and a shrug. I mean, what could we …
