Rating: PG Stars (voices): Owen Wilson, Woody Harrelson, Amy Poehler, George Takei, Colm Meaney, Keith David, Jimmy Hayward Writers: Scott Mosier and Jimmy Hayward, story by David I. Stern & John J. Strauss Director: Jimmy Hayward Distributor: Relativity Media Release Date: November 1, 2013 On the surface, FREE BIRDS is one more animated feature about talking animals putting aside their differences to save themselves and each other – yes, at this point, it constitutes an entire genre. However, it’s hard to tell if the makers of FREE BIRDS are intentionally putting out messages here, or if the whole thing is […]Read On »

Cast: Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Zak Orth, Elizabeth Mitchell, David Lyons, Giancarlo Esposito, Stephen Collins Writer: Paul Grellong Director: Steve Boyum Network: Airs on NBC, Wednesdays @ 8 p.m. Original Telecast: Oct. 30, 2013 There were times during REVOLUTION’s latest episode, “Dead Man Walking,” that I had a familiar feeling that the show was once-again delving back into the old format of the eternal battle of a group of rebels taking up arms against a more powerful entity. That same formula that dragged down the show big time in the first season. However, the whole aspect of Monroe (David Lyons) finally […]Read On »

HALLOWEEN - 35 Anniversary Edition Blu-ray | ©2013 Anchor Bay Entertainment

Stars: Donald Pleasence, Jamie Lee Curtis, P.J. Souls, Nancy Loomis Writer: John Carpenter and Debra Hill Director: John Carpenter Release Date: September 24, 2013 Distributor: Anchor Bay Suggested Retail Price: $34.99  At this point, the big question is, do we need another HALLOWEEN special edition? Every five years, there’s a new anniversary edition, and while there are improvements each time, is it worth shelling out another $30 bucks to own it? For people who don’t love Carpenter’s original, I would say, it’s probably not, but for fans, each time it comes out, I can’t help but getting another copy for […]Read On »

Paramount Pictures recently held the Los Angeles Premiere of JACKASS PRESENTS: BAD GRANDPA at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Fans were across from where I was and the electronic press, besides lining the streets of Hollywood. Before the stars arrived girls dressed as Candy Stripers in a white and red uniforms carrying candy trays walked the carpet and gave none of us candy! Bringing out this beanbag-throwing thing with a hole in it the Candy Stripers entertained themselves throwing beanbags through the hole. These were set up in various places. Right before the stars and guests started to arrive […]Read On »

 Original Airdate: October 24, 2013 THE VAMPIRE DIARIES episode “For Whom The Bell Tolls” was so sad this week that it actually brought tears to my eyes.

Every year in Mystic Falls they have […]Read On »

Stars: Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, Adam J. Harrington, Shannon Lucio, Kevin Brief Writers: Brad Buckner & Eugenie Ross-Leming, series created by Eric Kripke Director: Kevin Hooks Network: The CW, Tuesdays @ 9 PM Original Airdate: October 22, 2013 With Misha Collins’ desanctified angel Castiel now human, it makes sense that SUPERNATURAL devotes a good portion of an episode to the character coming to terms with his new condition. In “I’m No Angel,” Cass deals with homelessness, hunger, getting an anti-angel warding tattoo (so the other angels can’t track him) – and, oh yeah, sex. Unfortunately for Cass, his […]Read On »
