Where the Wild Things Are; I Love My Mom Too! - A Review

Saw “Where the Wild Things Are” tonight and though it was on my to-see list I wanted to catch “Zombieland” as this is Halloween and all. But the local theater apparently has a difficult time keeping their website up-to-date and when I got there I had three choices: “Stepfather”, “This is It”, and “Where the Wild Things Are.” I think I made the right choice considering. So what did I think? It’s actually a v… Continue

Troy the Corpse Killer's Review of "Where the Wild Things Are"

Finally, the Wild Things have arrived! This movie has been in development hell for at least ten years. Even as early as the early '80s this movie has been desperately trying to make it to the big screen. I mean the earliest trailer for it played in front of "Jim Carrey's How the Grinch Stol… Continue

Where the Wild Things Are REVIEW!

If I was to describe this film in a word, I would have to say its "childhood." The film is Spike Jonze's way of telling kids that childhood is a great time, but sooner or later; we all have to grow up. The main point of this film is set behind the idea of what it means to grow up and what it means to take your ow… Continue

Where the Wild Things Are (2009)

There's a one inside of us. Max (Max Records) imagines running away from his mom and sailing to a far-off land where large talking beasts -- Ira, Carol, Douglas, the Bull, Judith and Alexander -- crown him as their king, play rumpus, build forts and discover secret hideaways. Voices by Chris Coop… Continue

Where The WIld Things Are Review

I must admit, I was one of the most excited people in the world about this movie. The trailer was absolutely fantastic, (You know, the one with Arcade Fire's Wake Up in the background?) and it looked like the movie might even get on some Top Ten Lists at the end of the year. And the final product will still end up on a few lists, but not universally, and not for for t… Continue

Where the Wild Things Are

Welcome again to another one of Mike's movie reviews! This week, I went and saw Where The Wild Things Are. All I can say before I review it is that you have to keep in mind while watching this that it is a movie about a child's adventure -- not necessarily a children's movie. The movie is very similar to the book in that it follows the adventures of Max as he sails away from home to the island the wild things live on. There he meets, befriends, and becomes the king of the wild things. From… Continue

Wild Things at "Wild Things"

I love my theatre. I really do. I may complain about working there, but I love my theatre for several more reasons. Topping that list for the longest time was the fact that the families that came to the theatre were responsible parents with well-behaved children. Not once did I have any of the horror stories I kept hearing about where kids would be acting crazy and wouldn’t shut up throughout the entire movie. And I was truly grateful for that, because it meant I could watch a family movie with… Continue

VGE: Where The Wild Things Are...

Where the Wild Things Are in IMAX

We all have the desire to scape the real world sometimes. Because... plain and simple. Life is hard. But, how do you explain this to a child? Children are smart... almost too smart. But, they lack wisdom and experience at the same time. So, when a piece of work comes out that is able to explain this to them just right... It deserves to be looked at… Continue

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE review

To be perfectly honest, I have been sitting in my chair in front of my computer for about an hour now trying to write the best opening sentence that describes my undying love for WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE. Spike Jonze has been making this movie for a long time, fighting the studio in order to release his vision of what this film should be. I am sooooooooo happy that he won in the end otherwise we could've gotten a crappy kids movie with lame fart jokes and lame references to famous movies that k… Continue

B-movie spot: Wild Zero

Camp... but awesome camp. The superhero rockstar, guitar wolf, fights alien zombie spawn and save the world. Pretty much japanese awesome over the top stuff at its best/worst. I mean your never gonna see a 50's greaser rockstar fight zombies in an american film... and if we do, it wont have the same spark this did. The funniest bit was the hero, a nerdy kid trying to be as cool as guitar wolf. He gets hurt trying to fight for rock and roll and guitar wolf gives him a magic wh… Continue

Delgo sueing Avatar

Both films in my opinion are rip off of other previous work. I was one of the few people who actually saw Delgo (by accident, i thought it was another movie) it sucked so bad. Bad plot, bad characterizations, just plain stupid (usually i can sit through things like clone wars and be mildly entertained). It was in my opinion a rip off of Lephrechans or even an earlier peice of work: Romeo and Juliet but more like Lephrechans as the fairies who could fly end up being all chummy with the lephrechan… Continue

First blog of Spill

Never usually write blogs in fact this may even a first for me but I wanted to write something that was in my mind for a while now and also signed on to here just today so might as well make an opportunity here. After watching the newest trailer for "Where The Wild Things Are" this month (which looks awesome by the way), made me think about the original book and what it was like to read it when I was about Max's age and learning what the message of the story was which is about growing up. I rea… Continue

Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild - Spring Break for the Queer Gone Horribly Wrong

Well, this is a giant step backwards for Todd Stephens. As if you can’t tell by the title, Another Gay Sequel is the sequel to Another Gay Movie. And it’s unfortunate that this movie suffers from what Steve Job calls “the second product syndrome.” In movie terms, it’s the sequel that is nowhere near as good as the original. The story—if you can call it that—takes place duri… Continue

THE ROAD: A Great Film But Not in a Good Way

On Thursday night after dinner, I saw The Road at the River Oaks theater (which I think is the only theater in town showing the movie, right now). I'll start off with the good points of the film: great story; very moving; well-acted; magnificent c...

Should mainstream rappers broaden their horizons when it comes to the subject matters they rap about?

Since hip-hop currently is far more popular than it's ever been, should mainstream hip-hop artists(Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Cam'ron, etc.) change the the subject matters they rap about(drugs, women, money, their swag, etc.)? We've seen this during 0...
