The Grand Budapest Hotel Review By: Matt Cummings The refreshingly wacky Grand Budapest Hotel celebrates uniqueness in typical Wes Anderson style. We here at SJF do our best to recommend films that you'll enjoy - we think those that bill themselves as 'important' are mostly meant to be ignored, while those hidden gems require a bit of digging and a willingness to push your boundaries. Director Wes Anderson scored big on our 2012 Best-Of list with Moonrise Kingdom , due entirely to its quirkiness and beautifully-demented environment. We didn't feel that way about Bottle Rocket  and we outright disliked Fantastic Mr. Fox ; but with The Grand Budapest Hotel , Anderson scores with a funny yet unconventional work that's certainly not mainstream. Set mainly in the 1930's fictional fascist world of the European Republic of Zubrowka, we are introduced to the once-storied The Grand Budapest Hotel, a place of wonder where the rich can escape their worries

Muppets Most Wanted Review By: Matt Cummings The sequel Muppets Most Wanted is typical Muppets zaniness, and that's awesome for us. Among the most pleasant surprises of 2011 was the return of Jim Henson's Muppets in The Muppets . An emotional reunion filled with all the classic Muppet ingredients - memorable songs and zany comedy - it made a huge splash among old and new fans alike. Whether that winning formula could be repeated in a sequel has been the subject of debate among those who lovingly grew up with Sesame Street and later The Muppet Show , but who also worried that Disney might not give it the free reign it deserved. Luckily, Muppets Most Wanted recaptures that magic in many ways, but forgivingly misses in a few others. As the curtain literally draws on the last Muppets movie, the team realizes that their newly-rediscovered stardom is not as great as they thought. Feeling a bit desperate for direction, they hire the sneaky agent Dominic Badguy

Jem and the Holograms , the 1980s Hasbro toyline that was also a cartoon, is getting the big-screen treatment. Jason Blum’s Blumhouse Productions, Scooter Braun Productions and director Jon M. Chu are teaming up to make the movie, which has been fast-tracked to start production this spring. Chu, Blum and Scooter Braun announced Thursday on YouTube that they are producing a modern-day live-action reinvention of the cartoon. They also turned to fans of the show and toyline for help in writing music, designing costumes and even casting. The cartoon ran from 1985 to 1988 and chronicled the adventures of Jerrica Benton and her alter ego, Jem, a singer who fronted a band called The Holograms. Ironically, the show was produced with the involvement of Marvel Productions, who were hoping to replicate the success of G.I. Joe. According to the producers, Jem is being reimagined "for a whole new generation with themes of being true to who you are in a multitasking, hyperlinked soc
