    The Big Picture: The Lone Ranger: What Happened?

    I was hoping this movie to be good. Not for Depp, but for Armie Hammer. This guys has interesting presence on screen and I seriously hope for him that he'll get his big break sooner than later. I don't really mind Depp, but I mind him being at the forefront of a movie when he shouldn't based...

    Insomniac Games Unveils New "When Worlds Collide" Teaser

    Well sorry about this... it's a new Ratchet & Clank it seems. Which annoys me, cause the advertisement is misleading. Really? Heroes reunites? When world collides? Such a big deal about a game series that has always been there. Apparently they remove the "Future" from it's title and call it...

    Insomniac Games Unveils New "When Worlds Collide" Teaser

    Spyro?!? Remember the portals used in the game to travel from a world to another? Sony or Insomniacs may have bought back the rights, which seems unlikely considering Spyro's involvement with Skylanders, own by Activision... but I'm giving it a shot, mostly based on the portal and the purple...

    Jimquisition: Emotions, Polygons, and Ellen Page

    While being technically impressive, the more graphics allow close to real-life facial animations, the more I wonder if it wouldn't be less expensive to return the to the FMV era with real actors. Night Trap, Sewer Shark... anyone?

    Movie Defense Force: Mortal Kombat

    So far so good. I enjoy this new show by Jim. Which is good, cause the more it goes, the less I enjoy Escape to the Movies. The reason being, Jim critics (positively) movies on what they are. Not what they could have been or what the represent to the industry. Bob on the other, will critic...

    No Right Answer: Comedian Who Was Funny

    I'd say any of the Wayans brothers over Carey, Sandlers and even Murphy!

    It Doesn't Matter

    "some of them are really a stretch"... hahaha... saying this cause they were really spot on on the Avengers! Super Heroes pretending to use headsets... face it... it was a bad movie... with one of the worst villains. See to me the fact that they created a build up of 5 movies before doing the...

    Movie Defense Force: Freddy vs. Jason

    Thank God for Jim! Freddy vs Jason is easily one of my favorite movies of all time. And IT IS better than any of the original installments of both franchise. Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th series are campy and that's why we like them. But in term of movie quality / talent...

    Death By Boring

    What about the following genres; Serious buddy and Funny buddy are on a quest to fulfill whichever of these buddy's obsessions AKA every Pixar movies. or Average dude gets a super power. Struggle to balance his life between using it for good and his personal issues with his friends and...

    Who was your FIRST Video Game Hero? And who is your Current Favorite? AND WHY!?

    FIRST HERO... PAC-MAN I Had the PJ, the plush puppet and watched the TV Show while eating its cereals. I'm old and to me the notion of a character in a video game was a new concept back then. Before that you had Asteroid... a triangle shooting dots or... Pong, Arkanoid, Breakout, etc...

    The Big Picture: Is The Hobbit Too Long?

    Not surprised Bob didn't found it too long. Whenever I think "white", he says "black". An example of that are his best and worst top ten. Most of his worst were in my best, and vice versa. I don't mind mindless action, I don't mind having to think, I don't mind gratuitous nudity. I usually...

    Escape to the Movies: The Phantom Menace 13 Years Later

    Here's in part, something I wrote on a previous post about "Lucas retiring from movies" "[...] all 6 movies are in the Top 100 movies with the highest revenue. If the more it went the worse they were, why did they keep making money? The answer is easy... most people didn't care so much about...

    George Lucas is "Retiring" From Film

    Thanks for being the odd one. I'm with you on this and will add to it that all 6 movies are in the Top 100 movies with the highest revenue. If the more it went the worse they were, why did they keep making money? The answer is easy... most people didn't care so much about the Star Wars legacy...

    Vita Sales Get Even Worse

    I was going to say the exact same thing about the arbitrary expensive storage. I'm a PlayStation Fan Boy since the PS1 and I don't quite understand Sony's approach with handheld. It's as if they have no clue about the current market. Their are things that people came to expect from a portable...

    Jimquisition: Beneath A Steel Skyrim

    Exactly how I feel about the first Resident Evil. And somehow the reason why RE5 was less interesting to me.
