I have to say, Bad Boys For Life is one of the worst films I've seen in the last few years. Silly, poorly directed action, and Smith and Lawrence say the film's title every second scene. Damn, the lockdown really had you slumming it on the entertainment front huh pal? Number one for me is definitel...

The start of summer movie season is a mere 3 days away. What is everybody looking forward to watching? 10.Deadpool and Wolverine: Letting (a version of) Hugh Jackman's Wolverine play around in Deadpool's over-the-top meta sandbox is appealing enough for me to overlook the potential for disaster that...

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice felt like a strong possibility to be in the mix since it's a long-gestating sequel to a movie that has a devoted fanbase, but I completely agree on Garfield. That one legitimately stunned me.

Well, UDM certainly didn't help make this selection any less difficult as every single one of the half dozen or so films I was considering here is still on the board. After declaring myself too scared to take a superhero movie at this juncture and talking myself out of the other options in the hopes...

Indeed, that's one hell of a cast. Do you have a way of reaching UDM, Tranny ? I have him on Instagram, although I don't know how often he's there, and I must be able to find an old email that must be at least 10 years old. I was able to track one down (stevenjfr_21@hotmail.com) from a 2017 game em...

Sorry for the delay. I was asleep when I went on the clock. We've officially reached "The Sequels to Hit Movies that Feature Almost Zero Returning Original Cast Members" Phase of the Draft. While I do believe that all of these films have upside, only one of them stars Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal...

I have everybody's email except for Banks and UDM, but I'm friends with the former on FB and could probably pull the latter's email from the vast archives of my inbox

Borderlands? Nightbitch? Den of Thieves 2 perhaps?

Makes sense to not release Kraven so close to Deadpool. If the thing is somehow any good it could have holiday legs. Even if the WOM stinks (which seems likely!), releasing it during it the holidays will max out its BO-which is a great way to minimize the losses for a movie that was inexplicably ha...
