Talking anthropomorphic automobiles that race and have feelings? Sure, why not! In 2006, Cars was Pixar’s golden child for boys having a jones for cars and NASCAR and, despite the boring plot and anti-climatic ending, it made a ton of money. That certifiable trainwreck that was Cars 2? Uh… let’s not talk about that one,…
Here we go… again! That’s right, kiddies, it’s yet another reboot/reimagining of a movie that’s barely 20-years-old, but this time Universal Pictures really hopes to kick-start their Universal Filmland Monster world (Mummy, Frankenstein, Dracula, et al) just like the DC or Marvel Universe.

“Tra-la-laaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!” Look up in the sky! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s. . .it’s. . .a fat, bald guy in his briefs? Based on the popular kids books by Dav Pilkey, this ‘toilet humor’ flick has poop, fart, Uranus, and just about every juvenile joke you can shake a gooey stick at. It’s also…

Bouncing boobies, beautiful buns, and the beckoning beach were the hallmarks of one of the dumbest TV shows that ran from 1989-2001, and starred David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson. A bunch of impossibly good-looking lifeguards (usually running in slo-mo) that each week saved lives, joked around, and had goofy adventures. Y’know, like in real life!…
It looks like the newest trend in Hollywood is recycling original movies and repackaging them as new. Witness The Force Awakens and the recent Alien: Covenant, both films with the same original plot, but retooled and retold for another generation. Well, it looks like the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has done just that. *…
With this sequel to 2012’s Prometheus (which was a prequel, BTW), we continue director/writer Ridley Scott’s vision of other worlds, alien humanoids called Engineers that, according to the last movie, made us from their DNA and, of course, those nearly unstoppable bio-mechanical xenomorph alien creatures.
