South Park: The Complete Twenty-Second Season

(Nathan M Rose) 5/29/2019 12:09 PM EDT
South Park, which as of May of last year was Hulu's most-watched show, debuted in 1997 and has become a cultural phenomenon. The show has consistently pushed the envelope with its dark and sometimes outrageous humor and remains one of Comedy Central's highest-rated shows after all these years. It also produced a successful feature film in 1... Read More

Jason Statham (The Meg) is one of the most popular action movie stars around. After starting his career with a few film roles working for director Guy Ritchie (Aladdin), he landed the lead in Transporter, which was truly his breakout film. He proved that he was able to hold an audience's attention and was believable with his action stunts. Afte... Read More

Godzilla

(Nathan M Rose) 5/13/2019 4:34 PM EDT
Back in 1990, an Americanized version of Godzilla was shopped around to various "hot" directors at the time such as James Cameron, Time Burton, Paul Verhoeven, and Jan de Bout, with it eventually landing in the laps of the team responsible for the hit 1996 film Independence Day, Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich.The story, un...

Disneynature Penguins

(Nathan M Rose) 4/15/2019 10:04 AM EDT
Everyone knows about penguins. Almost all of us have seen them in a zoo, a cartoon, or in a film, but how much do we really know other than the fact that they waddle around and are cute? What do we really understand about their lives and mating rituals? Sure we may have seen documentaries about them before but nothing like this on... Read More

Replicas

(Nathan M Rose) 4/13/2019 11:59 PM EDT
Cloning is a hot button topic in today's world. We have the ability to do so but, the question is, should we? Those who have lost a beloved family member/friend or pet knows the feeling of wanting them back. In Replicas, we see what happens when the grips of grief and despair take over and you'll do anything to achieve that goal. Now, ... Read More

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald

The Harry Potter franchise has soared to unbelievable heights throughout the years, spawning 7 books, 8 films, theme park attractions and even a spin-off universe, Fantastic Beasts. The spin-off, so far, is comprised of two films, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) and Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018). Now, you c... Read More

Instant Family

Instant Family, based on the true story of writer/director Sean Anders (Daddy's Home), tells the story of Pete (Mark Wahlberg; Ted) and Ellie (Rose Byrne; Neighbors), a couple who, even though they love each other and work hard, decide that children would make their lives complete. However, they seem to get more than they bargained for when the... Read More

Ralph Breaks The Internet

(Nathan M Rose) 2/25/2019 9:10 PM EDT
Back in 2012 production started on a little film called Wreck-It Ralph. There was small fanfare at that year's San Diego Comic Con, but not much. All the press really knew is it would be "Roger Rabbit" like but instead of cartoons it would be featuring video game characters and settings that everyone grew up loving. The film, which debute...

Robin Hood

(Nathan M Rose) 2/19/2019 9:16 AM EDT
Robin Hood. The name invokes different images and different stories depending on who you ask. Either it's the Earl Flynn Robin Hood, the Disney cartoon, the comedy spoof by Mel Brook, The 1991 Kevin Coster melodrama with the best portrayal of the Sheriff of Nottingham ever, or the 2010 Russel Crowe take on the classic tale. Then in 2018, to help br... Read More

Castle Rock The Complete First Season

(Nathan M Rose) 1/7/2019 11:23 PM EDT
Hailing from the mind of Stephen King, Castle Rock is a town used in most of his novels, and now with the resurgence of Stephen King films, Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason took the opportunity - with the blessing of the master of horror himself- Stephen King, to create an Anthology Series entitled Castle Rock, with a cast of actors from some of ...
