It's that time of year again. The time of year where people from around the world are brought together, families rejoice together, it will either get very cold or very hot. (For me its sadly the latter.) Those days that begins Jesus's birthday have never been days to go out and be social, that comes later in the week. Yes those few days before Christmas reamin those preperation days, sitting around the tree, making egg nog, or sticking to the Santa clause ruse. So when these days approach I like… Continue

Well...I'm bored. I came home and turn on the T.V. and saw some christmas shit on and when I logged on to my myspace page I saw this person status update saying how many more days until Christmas.
So with that I decided to do my favorite Christmas movies and T.V. show...and I'll start my list with the #5...I would like to ask what Korey's favorite Christmas movie or T.V. show is but I can't think of another way to put it other than "Whats you favorite..." and we all know how he gets with "Whats… Continue

Christmas never came so early, Literally it's about 2 months away.
This story is known by so many, and has been adapted, retold and reimagined so many times, what could this possible offer that is worth watching again.
Well if anything, it's absolutly terrifiying, exspecially for a childrens film. It does a great job of creating really effective automosphere, and… Continue

With all this talk about Black Friday on the news and how Wal-Mart is going to try to prevent its yearly death knell (good luck, I say), a co-worker of mine was asking me the other day about Black Friday at the movies. I gave him the basic rundown on what usually happens. It’s not as bad as you would think. The day after Christmas, however, is a different story.
Then, out of nowhere, he aske… Continue

It was at a screening at work at amc. The movie was enjoyable and a fun ride. Jim Carey played a great Scrooge and Gary Oldman was just as good as Bob Crachit. The 3d effects were great. It surpassed my expectations, for I thought they were going to make a mindless thrill ride, when they actually told dickens' story very well, with each ghost being creepy. The spirit of Christmas is put to full effect. My only complaint is that I still have a hard time deciding on whether Iike the animation or n… Continue

A hysterical short film from Jason Eisner, whom directed the independent trailer Hobo with a Gun, which (depending on the theater) you might have seen within the Tarantino/Rodriquez double feature Grindhouse. Visit the film's official site here.

How many graphic novels can you name that would count as literature? There's Watchmen, naturally. And Maus, you can't forget that one! Oh, and The Dark Knight Returns... and eh... Persepolis... that would count too... hmmm. The high art of graphic novels sort of stops a… Continue
For those who haven't seen the trailer yet, here it is:
This trailer looks awesome! I loved the book as a kid.BUT, like I have said before, this is JUST the trailer. I trust Spike Jonze; he is probably one of the best directors to get for a dark and very odd movie like this. But Jonze's directing style is the least thing I am concerned about. If anything, it… Continue

TheBadandUgly.com has posted the first image of Jim Carrey as Ebenezer Scrooge in Disney's A Christmas Carol, written/directed by Robert Zemeckis.
"A federal judge in Los Angeles has granted 20th Century Fox's claim that it owns a copyright interest in the upcoming film, Watchmen.
The decision was disclosed in a five-page written order issued on Christmas eve. Fox has been seeking to prevent Warner Brothers from releasing the film since February.
Judge Gary A. Feess has also suggested that work on a settlement or an appeal rather than going to trial."
So will this affect the release date? Maybe, maybe not. All I know is th… Continue
Can't you smell it in the air? That Christmas taste in your mouth or is that eggnog? God I hate eggnog.........I rather drink Coca-Cola as long as they have that picture of that jolly Santa on it. Mmmmm I love Coke........What was this about again? Oh yes, Christmas and Hanukkah.
Christmas, when we all have to act happy long enough to hide our disappointment........
And Hanukkah! I have no experience with Hanukkah because I'm a Catholic but I'm sure there's alot of disappointment there too.

With the rampant comercialisation of this festive time of year, it's often easy to forget just what Christmas is really all about. Why is Christmas is a question you will often hear gramatically challenged people in the street cry out in desperation as they waste money of the latet 'Jerk Me Off Elmo' or the 'Curse Like A Fucking Dockworker Furby'. Here then is the answer to that question... Well I guess technically it's more about the meaning of Easter perhaps but still, it's a video I made some… Continue

Well, it’s that time of year again. People are roasting their nuts on open fires, toy companies a greedily stroking their chins in manners befitting their evil geniusnous and children are pissing themselves in the laps of creepy strangers wearing false beards. Merry Christmas!
It seems as though this is a blog about films and as such I am pretty much required by law to do a list containing my favourite Christmas movies of all time. I managed to resist doing a list of scary films at Halloween bu… Continue
Yep. Another one. Is Disney going to release the whole film before it opens in cinemas or something?
Anyway this clip is from the leading lady Tiana's song "Almost There" which shifts to an interesting animation style. There are often songs lik...
