Brendon Lindsey, here. I'm a 22 year-old living near Portland, OR. Currently, I work in videogame journalism at GamerNode.com, and sports radio. I've always had a love for movies, though, so I thought it was time I made my own movie blog. Don't expect a ton of groundbreaking intellectual discourses here--just the latest news, some reviews, and commentary from an often sarcastic film fanatic. While some people take this stuff way too seriously, I don't even know the meaning of that word. Or lots of words, for that matter.

I’m still giddy over the fact that Jackie Chan and Jet Li are going to be in an epic martial arts film together, with Yuen Woo-ping serving as the choreographer. It’s like my third highest ranking fanboy fantasy come true.
Sure, the plot of The Forbidden Kingdom revolving around the kid from Sky High being transported […]

According to the Wonder Sleuth, Matt Reeves (the guy who directed the people directing the movie via their handcams) is working on a deal with Paramount to get the Cloverfield sequel underway. No word […]

Recently, I came across a blog entry detailing ways to “save the Justice League movie.” I agree wholeheartedly with Charlie about his first point about keeping it simple, but as for his story…
First off, the idea to keep it simple? That should be obvious. By the time we get (if ever) a full-out Justice League […]

Sometimes you just can’t make this shit up. Joss Whedon — who made a career off of casting shows and movies with hot women kicking ass — has come out against the cult classic Weird Science because he “finds it offensive” that it objectifies women that way. Teapot, kettle, etc.
On the last installment of the […]

According to People, Terry Gilliam has denied the rumor that Johnny Depp will replace Heath Ledger in his upcoming film, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Despite that, the bat-shit insane filmmaker won’t be likely to shelve the project due to the death of his star, and close friend.
Said actor Christopher Plummer, Gilliam is “…trying to […]

Empire has a new image of Indiana Jones 4 in their latest issue. In it, Indy is just chillin’…with a bazooka.
Now, I love the idea of Indy blowing shit up as much as the next guy, but am I the only one who thinks the actors next to Ford look a little too surprised? It’s […]

I’m not exactly rich, and Netflix has slowed down tremendously since I’ve used the service for a few years. So instead of stealing every DVD out this week from Blockbuster or some kind, elderly Chinese man downtown, I’m just going to review this week’s major releases (that I haven’t seen yet) based purely on their […]

When someone sends you a link to this story, and 12 hours go by before you realize the Bay quote at the end probably wasn’t real after all. Still, Michael “Boom Boom” Bay ruining another childhood memory? I can’t wait. I’ve been feeling pretty happy lately, so this is just the kick in the groin […]

According to the NYTimes, the Academy is “considering” removing ONCE’s song, “Falling Slowly,” from the best song category of the Oscars.
First off, screw the Oscars. I stand tall with my former writer brethren.
Secondly, what the hell, Academy? They claim it’s because the song isn’t “surely written” for Once since it appears on an album or […]
