BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

"Maggie" Trailer Released

What Has It Revealed About Schwarzenegger’s New Movie? Story by David Clark The official Maggie website released a trailer on March 25th for the new Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Maggie. Schwarzenegger is joining up with the young Academy Award-Nominated Abigail Breslin in a unique take on the zombie genre. The trailer runs slightly longer than two minutes, and it looks like Arnold might be pushing his comfort zone with this one. The name Arnold Schwarzenegger is practically synonymous with the Terminator franchise and with a dozen other action films over the past 30 years. Simply put, the man is rarely in a movie that requires him to convincingly display a gamut of emotions with any level of conviction. Maggie might push Arnold’s acting prowess to the limit. For those that are not familiar with the movie and that have yet to see the trailer, Maggie does not appear to be the typical post apocalyptic gore fest. In fact, society appears to be very much intact

Movie Review: HOME. Unmemorable & Generic

Home is cute and cuddly, sure, it's quirky and very bubbly. It's bathed pastels and has a shiny plastic feel. The quick laughs and familiar story should make it easy for the film to endear itself, but its that familiarity that makes it unmemorable and generic. The story of a pair of misfits from different worlds coming together is nothing new, and unfortunately Home doesn't bring anything to the table that would set it apart from its predecessors which were much better done. After a hive-minded alien race called the Boov conquer the Earth, they relocate the planet's human population -- all except for a little girl named Tip (Rihanna), who's managed to hide from the aliens. When Tip meets a fugitive Boov called Oh (Jim Parsons), there's mutual distrust. However, Oh is not like his comrades; he craves friendship and fun. After a potentially fatal mistake, Oh finds himself on the run from his own people. As their distrust fades, the pair set out together

Movie Review: Get Hard

The comedy Get Hard merely survives and never elevates into something new. Review by Matt Cummings In the raunchy comedy Get Hard , James (Will Ferrell) is a successful hedge fund manager whose slick deals and sixth sense about the market sees him making money hand-over-fist for his boss (Craig T. Nelson), whose gold-digging daughter (Brie Larson) is really in it for the money. Meanwhile, Darrell (Kevin Hart) is struggling to get his car wash business to the next level, while his family dreams of a better life in an upscale neighborhood. That isn't going to happen unless Darrell can post a $30,000 deposit which he hopes James can help him secure. But when James becomes the scapegoat for securities fraud, he turns to Darrell to him help prepare for prison life. Even though Darrell is black, he's no hardened criminal, but takes the offer with the promise of getting his money. Through a series of misadventures, the duo tries desperately to relate to one another, be

Lizzy’s out of the closet and into the fire. Story by @ErikaAshley This week we find Prudence and Luke canoodling in the kitchen when Lizzy enters the room greeting them with good mornings.

She also announces that her things have finally arrived from England when Lizzy has a mild OCD induced panic attack at seeing the clutter filled living room. Luke reminds Lizzy that he's very thankful for her being such a great friend and roommate after allowing Prudence to move in and feel welcome in her new home. Lizzy agrees to allow Prudence to move her stuff in and Prudence suggests she keep most of her items in the front closet. Lizzy quickly detests and Luke fills Prudence in on the closet situation stating that closet houses the belongings of Lizzy's ex-girlfriend, Erica, although they have been broken up for 3 years. Prudence decides to help Lizzy get over Erica bec

"Fifity Shades of Grey" Steps Aside for Sequel

We analyze how 'Creative Disagreements' led to her dismissal/departure. Story by Matt Cummings In what might have been the biggest DUH moment of the entertainment week, The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Director Sam Taylor-Johnson will not be returning to direct the sequel, 50 Shades Darker . In a statement released Thursday, the director of 50 Shades of Grey said the following: "While I will not be returning to direct the sequels, I wish nothing but success to whosoever takes on the exciting challenges of films two and three...Directing Fifty Shades of Grey has been an intense and incredible journey for which I am hugely grateful. I have Universal to thank for that. I forged close and lasting relationships with the cast, producers and crew and most especially, with Dakota and Jamie." The tale of bondage and love, 50 Shades opened to an impressive $92 million over the Valentines Day weekend, but quickly fell 72% in its second week, after aud

Coach Revived as 13-Episode Event Series. No, Seriously.

Hayden Fox will coach another day. By Brandon Wolfe Dusting off The X-Files , 24 and Twin Peaks was one thing, but here’s something no one saw coming. A deal has been struck to revive Coach , the Craig T. Nelson sitcom that ran on ABC from 1989-1997, for a 13-episode event series on NBC. Nelson will reprise his role as Hayden Fox and series creator Barry Kemp will write the new installments. The new Coach will be a real-time sequel to the original series, picking up 18 years after the series finale to focus on the now-retired Coach Fox stepping forward to assist his adult son, who is the head coach at an Ivy League school in Pennsylvania. The new series will retain the multi-camera style employed by the original. It has yet to be determined how many of Nelson’s original co-stars, including Jerry Van Dyke, Shelley Fabares, Bill Fagerbakke, Clare Carey and Kenneth Kimmins, will join him, but presumably at least a few will. Man, Coach is coming back. That’s so weird. Can

TV Review: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. "Love in the Time of Hydra"

Coulson’s abilities are questioned, as well they should be. Review by Brandon Wolfe When Gonzales (Edward James Olmos, another impressive “get” for the series), the head of the “real S.H.I.E.L.D.,” informs Hunter of all the reasons why Coulson is not fit to run the agency, it’s hard to argue with any of them. Coulson has been infused with alien DNA, leading him to make erratic decisions. The deaths that happened on his watch were indirectly his fault. Moreover, the success rate in the apprehension of villains under his command is a big, fat goose egg and he runs his unit more like a squishy den mother than a lead agent. Coulson is the pits, and it creates a sort of cognitive dissonance in the viewer when the person making the most sense is someone we’re supposed to immediately distrust because he dares to oppose the chief protagonist. If Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. were a smarter show, I’d think that perhaps it purposefully intended to call into question the competency of its hero

2 Broke Girls S04E15 Recap: And The Fat Cat

The girls get catty when their pet Nancy goes missing but finds them a potential business lead. Story by @ErikaAshley This week we find the Caroline at the diner covering for Max, whom shows up late to work when she tries to locate their missing cat, Nancy. Max is upset that Nancy has been missing for several days and fears this might just be the time she never makes it back to their dingy little apartment. Caroline reassures her that Nancy will be home in no time or that someone will call the number on her collar to report her found. Shortly after arriving back at the dinner Max gets a call on her cell from an anonymous caller. Alas Nancy has been found! The girls make it back to their place to meet the hero that located Max’s precious kitty. Caroline gives Max flack about being so worried about the missing cat but hardly flinching at their $10k loan debt and over 1,000 cupcake shirts that they can’t unload. Max assures her that she wakes up at night screaming because of th
