(Nathan M Rose) 1/11/2010 8:12 PM EDT In 1999, a quirky little comedy based on Shakespeare's, Taming of The Shrew, entitled 10 Things I Hate About You, hit the theaters.

(Nathan M Rose) 11/18/2009 8:02 PM EDT After the initial "wow" factor of computer-animated films such as Toy Story subsided and the films became "old hat", my taste for Pixar animated features waned to the point of just watching them for their technology -- not the story or voice talents. However, when Monsters, Inc was released in theaters…I was hooked again.... Read More |

Self-assured Madison Avenue and Executiv... Read More |
