“It’s time to show Kong that MAN is king!” I’ll admit, I wasn’t exactly ecstatic when I heard the news that Legendary Studios was making another King Kong movie; ambivalence would best describe my feelings when it was first announced. However, as more news starting coming out...
“Back off…just back off!” Stephen King has and will always hold a special place in my heart. Every time I read one of his books or watch one of his movies I’m always hit with an image from my childhood: standing in my brother’s room, gazing up...
A new world revealed. For the last couple of months I’ve been on a real nature film kick. Ever since visiting a recently opened aquarium that left me feeling underwhelmed with its unfortunate mediocrity (no fault of the fish, mind you) I’ve been left with a thirst...
