There will be lots of kicking in theaters around the country this weekend…hopefully only on the screens. Both of the big new films – “Kung Fu Panda” and “You Don’t Mess with the Zohan” star characters who use martial arts. Which of these movies will kick the competition’s butt? Here’s my prediction: #1) “Kung Fu […]

I didn’t see/review “National Treasure: Book of Secrets” when it came out in theaters in December but I finally watched it on DVD the other night and I was a little disappointed. Plenty of stars, including Nicolas Cage, Ed Harris. Helen Mirren and Jon Voight but the story is pretty goofy. This time (this is […]

One of my favorite award shows of the year – The Golden Trailer Awards (or the Movie Preview Awards as they are now called) – were held a few weeks ago but they finally showed them on TV (on the My TV Network for the first time) Monday night. The show was hosted by Sinbad, […]

There will be less than 400 Drive-In movie theaters in operation this summer around the US. I went to one of them the other night to see “Indiana Jones-4”. Our family goes to the Drive-In’s at least twice a year, but this was the first time we’d ever gone in May. As usual we played […]

I’ve been telling you for awhile about the new Regal theater that was opening in my area. Well, it finally opened the other night and, of course, I was there. Here’s what it’s got: 13 screens, stadium seating, digital projection in all theaters, rocking seats, and posters everywhere. They’re still working out the bugs. They […]

I (and most of you) have been waiting for “Wall-E” since Disney/Pixar announced that it was going to be their follow-up to “Ratatouille.” It comes out June 27th, but now we finally know what Wall-E stands for: Waste Allocation Load Lifter – Earth class. Cool. It’s official: the “Alvin and the Chipmunks” sequel is set […]

“Iron Man 2” has already been announced for April, 2010. If you stayed until the end of the credit of “Iron Man” (as I told you to) you would have seen a scene that gives an idea of a new character and clue of a possible stroyline for the sequel. Or maybe the “threequel”, since […]

As I was standing in line, waiting to be allowed into the theater to see “Iron Man”, I played a little game with my father. We watched the people approaching the ticket taker and tried to guess what movie they were going to. Here’s what I discovered: If a guy, a bunch of guys or […]

I got to meet another celebrity this weekend. While at a local mall to check-out the progress of their new Regal Cinema I’ve been telling you about, my Mom and I got to meet fashion designer, author and TV host Tim Gunn. He was at the Macy’s hosting a fashion show for Liz Claiborne and […]
