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.

Yahoo has an exclusive new trailer for the upcoming Jackie Chan and Jet Li movie, The Forbidden Kingdom. Featuring several clips of fights (including the oh-so-tantalizing snippet of Chan vs Li), it looks a lot better than I thought it would be. Even with the kid from Sky High being the main character, it seems […]

Martin Scorcese seems to be aiming high when it comes to his musician documentaries. He’s already done a great job with Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones, and now he turns his directorial ideas towards the Rastaman himself, Bob Marley. There’s really no information about the project (other than it’s tentatively penned for a release […]

Not technically movie news per say, but this is just so absurd I had to mention it. As some people may know, I’ve been looking forward to the remake of the ol’ Knight Rider show — especially with my man GOB on board as the voice of KITT. Sadly, that’s no more, as Val Kilmer […]

This Impromptu Cinema is going to be a little different than the rules I established in the Elephant Stomping Dystopian Future edition last week. Why? Partly because I already had this written up for another site, and at the last minute the assignment got pulled. Rather than have it go to waste, […]

I had to post this just because it’s so awesome. It’s not exactly movie related, but it is related to this blog so that’s close enough. (Plus I’m in charge, so stop complaining.)
Thanks to the Impromptu Cinema article, I am now the number 1 search result in Google for “elephant stomping.”
I’d like to thank Ryan […]

Obviously, movies up for an Oscar are more likely to be pirated than say, oh, that Veggie Tales movie about vegetable pirates.
Over on Waxy.org, they’ve come up with two posts: the first a detailed spreadsheet of every Oscar nominated movie since 2003 including the first leak, the number/types of leaks and more; and the second […]

Ben Affleck and the wonderful cast of GONE BABY GONE have already received rave reviews and accolades for this provocative, gripping and heart-breaking story about the disappearance of a little girl and the search to find her. This gritty, fast-paced thriller is realistic and immensely poignant. All the performances are outstanding. Amy Ryan – not […]

Over on my other site, GamerNode, good ol’ Billy wrote that Mark Wahlberg and crew are ready to begin filming the Max Payne flick in Toronto. Now, I loved the (first) game as much as any game fanatic, but I admit I’m skeptical of this due to the whole “game to movie” thing.
Then again, after […]

Thank God. After the news that Michael Bay was set to direct a remake of the 80s classic A Nightmare on Elm Street, I was worried that Robert “What’s Turn Down Mean?” Englund would be on board for the likely disaster. Thankfully, according to Bad Taste, he won’t be.
“I’m too old for this new version, […]

Alright, so we all know the Venom movie will probably blow more than Paris Hilton trying to reduce her next DUI sentence. What has a chance to work out, though, is Wolverine and the X-Men. It’s made by the people behind the highly underrated X-Men Evolution cartoon, and returns the voice of Steve Blum (Cowboy […]
