(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...

(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 |

(Nathan M Rose) 10/23/2018 9:42 AM EDT If you love music from the 1970's Swedish pop group ABBA then you surely loved 2008's movie based on the musical filled with their songs, called Mamma Mia! If, like me, you aren't a fan, then that movie and this year's sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again certainly weren't your cup of tea. Luckily for the former grouping, the second film is se...

(Nathan M Rose) 10/2/2018 8:50 AM EDT America, the land of the free, the home of the brave, and also the home of the Purge.
