Hi all! A quick post to tackle a serious issue that has ignited some passion on the site. Don't worry, it will also be fun.
See? don't tell me that didn't make you smile a tiny bit
As many of you certainly have, I have noticed that there has been a lot of discussions on racism lately on the site. Korey and Co-host have had a long talk about it on this week's

Hi, fellow Spilldos. Fouapa here, bringing you an early review of the new doomsday flick from this asshole over there.
I know, it's not very nice to call him that, but surely you'd feel like me if you had to sit through his movie. I actually went to the cinema yesterday but couldn't get around writing my review...I just wanted to forget about it for good, pretty much like I imagine you'd do…

On Friday, the highly anticipated and dreaded 2012 will hit US theaters and chances are you already know all about it...but exactly how huge is the advertising tidal wave flooding everyone's brain across the globe?
"I got's my eyes on you, Nibiru"
Being that I've been shamefully vacant from my b…

Hi fellow Spillions!
Fouapa, your french friend here. It's been a long time again since I posed anything, so here is something a little different.
Having recently bought the game Dead Space and played a few hours into it, I thought I could give a shot to this movie. Just a quick…

Fuck it,
I'm having one of those very busy month when you can slowly feel yourself turn into something ugly and dangerous. It's when I started planning various assassination plans towards random people in the street that I felt like I needed to drop some real pressure. I remembered the perfect movie to calm down my killer instincts...while enjoying the satisfying sight of staged but nonetheless terrible murders.

Claude Berri, one of France's best director/producer died yesterday following a brain stroke.
He leaves behind a remarkable portfolio. You might have heard about the recent
Hunting and Gathering (Ensemble, c'est tout) a great romatic drama with Audrey Tautou but he also directed many of France's most interesting movies.

Good day to you Spill members!
A few days ago the freezing temperatures made me seek shelter in the closet movie theatre, and for once I decided to give a chance to a french spy flick...when the lights went off I sat there dreading for yet another awful disappointment.
Dam…

Will Smith officially declared last night on French TV that he will be producing and starring in the remake of Bienvenue Chez Les Ch'tis, a movie that came out in early 2008 and cracked never-seen numbers at the French box office for a french movie: 20,3M tickets were sold domestically, which places it right behind Titanic with it's huge 20,7 M tickets sold. It is currently being released across Europe (movies in France rarelly reach half that).

Comic books fans, this post is for you! Having learned a lot from LEOG about american comics, I've decided to start highlighting some French books I've been reading and would deserve to finish between your fingers. First on the list: WAKE.

Hello Spill addicts,
Today I'm doing something a little different than my French movies highlights to put out there my point of view about the "hidden" message of the universally mocked
The Happening...
First let me make one thing very very clear: the movie IS bad, I'm not going to argue about it! However I had a pretty interesting talk with Antithesis, fellow spil…

Hey Spill gang,
Today i got out of work early and I though "hey, why not give that new 'nu reeves movie a shot?". Boy, what a treat that was...(warning, contains irony).
I know, it's mean, but I'm a bit pissed off at him right now...
So, the movie. The plot if you don't know it already is…

Howdy fellow Spillions,
I don't know about you, but when i'm crazy busy with various stuff to the point I'm nearly losing my mind and sleeping doesn't even mean anything anymore, I have my own techniques to drop some pressure before I run out naked in the street and mouth-rape a car (I you'd wanna know how it's done, please feel free to send me an email). Of course there is the usual way-too-much coffee drinking anf fag smoking, but that's just unhealthy.
To me, there is nothing like getting Y…

On a completely non-movie related note, I just came across an unusual piece of news. Apparently, the mayor of a small town in france has decided to show his support to the Democrat candidate by putting a huge banner on an historical building in the center of his town...without telling anyone.

Hey Spill, how are you today?
I'm fine, thanks for asking. I just came back from a screening of the new James Bond flick, and boy was it disappointing! Warning, minor spoilers.
The opening scene is very cool and has a lot of potential as do many other stunts throughout the movie...but what's with the Bourne-ish editing? I couldn't figure out half the shit that was going on most of the tim…
