Random Thoughts: Unconventionally romantic flix

Happy Friday everybody! The reviews of the Garry Marshall's ultimate chick flick Valentine's Day is in, and surprise, surprise, it's dismal an abomination. The other two lovey dovey flicks currently in theaters (When in Rome and Dear John) aren't any better either. So unless you're in the mood for some monstrous howling courtesy of Benicio …

Ten Movie Trailers I Love in 2009

Mere hours until buh-bye to 2009. Movie sites/blogs alike are abuzz with talks of awards and their picks of best-of lists. Well, since I haven't seen some of those taunted as 'the best' of the year (i.e. Hurt Locker, Up in the Air, etc.), I 'm going to delay my best-of list until sometime in …

TEN Notable Foreign Actors to Watch

I love lists. Don't you? I consider myself sort of a list-a-holic, well as far as movies are concerned of course. As with any list, it's a matter of opinion/preference, and it's impossible to please everyone, as is often the case with my other top ten lists. This one in particular is not meant to …

Why the Brits/Aussies will always rule US TV

Upon learning this news that David Tenant — the popular star of BBC's Dr. Who — will be a part of the Peacock network, I thought I'd resurrect my old post I did back in June. Funny how things haven't changed one bit since then. Brits/Aussies still very much saturate our shows. Just this Fall, another …
