POP SHOW PODCAST | © 2016 AssignmentX

Welcome back to the POP SHOW PODCAST starring Anthony C. Ferrante. No Anthony again this week because as you might have heard he’s off directing the latest installment of SyFy’s SHARKNADO franchise. So he’s a bit too busy to deal with the likes of Sonia Mansfield (@TheSoniaShow), Chris Smith (@JettJergens), Ryan Mitchelle and myself (@PeterbrownAX) who all sat down to discuss the latest hot button issues in pop culture. This week we dive deep into the remakes, reboots and re-imaginings (is that even a word?) world of Hollywood beginning with the big reveal of the GHOSTBUSTERS trailer. The gang also […]Read On »

Movies: CREED – Call it ROCKY VII, call it a reboot, call it a re-imagining, call it late for dinner, there is one […]Read On »

Movie Review: EDDIE THE EAGLE

EDDIE THE EAGLE | © 2016 20th Century Fox

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Taron Egerton, Hugh Jackman, Jo Hartley, Keith Allen, Tim McInnerny, Jim Broadbent, Christopher Walken Writers: Sean Macaulay and Simon Kelton, story by Simon Kelton Director: Dexter Fletcher Distributor: 20th Century Fox Release Date: February 26, 2016 EDDIE THE EAGLE is a movie that shouldn’t work. This isn’t because the subject matter isn’t engaging – a late-coming rookie to a death-defying sport who makes the Olympics is perfectly cinematic in narrative and visual terms. However, the fictional treatment of how real-life Michael “Eddie the Eagle” Edwards achieved fame is so broad that there a character literally does a […]Read On »

TRIPLE 9 | © 2016 Open Road Films

Rating: R Stars: Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Anthony Mackie, Aaron Paul, Clifton Collins Jr., Woody Harrelson, Kate Winslet Writer: Matt Cook Director: John Hillcoat Distributor: Open Road Films Release Date: February 26, 2016 TRIPLE 9 – that is, 999 – is the U.S. police radio code for “officer down” (it’s also the British equivalent of dialing 911). When the signal is sent out, virtually every officer in the city converges on the site of the incident, leaving very few cops to deal with other crimes that may be happening at the same time. In TRIPLE 9, a gang of Atlanta, […]Read On »

Movie Review: THE WITCH

THE WITCH | © 2016 A24

Rating: R Stars: Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Ineson, Kate Dickie, Harvey Scrimshaw, Ellie Grainger, Lucas Dawson Writer: Robert Eggers Director: Robert Eggers Distributor: A24 Release Date (theatrical): February 19, 2016 Set in the 16th-century British colonies in North America, or more precisely, in the vicinity of the colonies, THE WITCH pulls us in with a straight-faced authority. Director/writer Robert Eggers, basing what the ads call his “folk tale” on writings of the period, creates a marvelous sense of atmosphere and imbues it with genuine dread. William (Ralph Ineson) is so strict in his religious faith that even his fellow Puritans can’t […]Read On »
