Who doesn't love the original Wizard of Oz movie? Blind and deaf people even like it. So when Oz: The Great and Powerful was being advertised, I somehow tricked myself into thinking that Hollywood wouldn't fuck it up because they would want to honor the... Read More
I've always enjoyed the idea of movies appropriating fairy tales and making them as dark as they originally were. Sadly, no one has ever done it correctly. While Tommy Wirkola's Hansel & Gretel comes pretty damn close, it does suffer from the whole kid... Read More
Wait a second… you want me to watch a movie with The Rock in it, and it’s not even an action movie? The last time I did that, I wound up watching a little movie called The Tooth Fairy. I still hate myself and The Rock for that little experience.... Read More
The fact that This Is the End even exists is amazing to me. Based on some short film that Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel made shortly after the filming of Knocked Up, This Is the End is the type of film that you and your buddies want to make just to have a... Read More
Seth Gordon has been one my favorite comedic directors ever since he decided to film video game nerds arguing about high scores with King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. His follow up feature, after some TV shows, was the delightfully bitter Horrible... Read More
This drinking game is to be played with Mama and some beer. I suggest you play with some cans of Mama’s Little Yella Pils from Oskar Blues Brewery based out of Colorado.

1 drink – every time you see Mama
1 drink – every time a kid speaks in baby talk

Cut to five years later, and the dude’s brother is still trying to find out what happened to his brother and his kids. After a happy coincidence, the girls are found… and they’re admittedly all fucked up after living in the woods on their own for five years...
