Cloud Atlas (2012) – Okay, let’s get one thing out of the way: I will always support a movie like this whether I love it or hate it or anywhere in between. What do I mean by “a movie like this?” Well, sometimes there’s a film-maker who creates something that in addition to be very … Continue reading →

The Dark Knight Rises (2012) – I try to stick to the movie in these articles but I feel I should address something surrounding this movie. I go out to a bar every Thursday night and after getting home I decided to watch The Dark Knight, because I knew that the next day (or technically later … Continue reading →

X-Men (2000) – I have been a huge X-Men fan since the early 90s.
