Roll The Credits

What is really the difference between wood and human flesh? A lot actually but it still doesn't mean they don't have feelings. In a new imagination Del Toro uses stop motion animation to tell a classic story of the wooden boy who dreamed to be alive. A film that uses its style to the ultimate degree with a great cast and fun pacing making for a unique story that still feels familiar. If yo...

The act of posing, taking a shot, and then resetting by an inch is such a tedious thing to do to the point that it almost becomes overbearing. However, is this actually easier? The world of stop motion films is very interesting in the process but its not without its own set of pros and cons making a film in this style. Today we discuss all of those things and excitement around it. As always we wou...

A dysfunctional family, a longing to be understood, and the robot apocalypse is all it takes to get a father and daughter to understand each other. When Katie decides to go away to start a new beginning our smartphones also rise up against us.

Over the many years of film, there is a genre that always seemed like it needed a few more defining lines and imagination to fully bring to life while others were flourishing.

As always, we would love to hear yo...

Who wants the gold? apparently not enough and also too many in our eyes as we finish off Action August with a newer film following a soldier during nazi Germany trying to escape all while another set of people are trying to find a hidden treasure. This is a film that was obviously Tarantino inspired but lacks the full direction and storytelling. That being said, this film does have a great look to...

After a certain point in time with anything, you look back on the past with rose tinted glasses and maybe some memories were better than anything that could come now. Or is that a lie? Just like in memories, the ideas of movies may be the same and when it comes to action films there is usually a divide of old vs new. As always we would love to hear which side you are on and listen in as we pick wh...

I think its safe to say that any of us would destroy a town just because one man wronged you right? John Rambo does exactly this when he returns from the Vietnam war to visit his last comrade only to find he has passed away, a sherif that doesn't like his kind and a man hunt ensues. A film that is less about the fighting and kills and more about the trauma of war and mental restraint that chan...

Could anyone else rock a bright yellow jumpsuit and still get away with it? Only Arnold could as he plays Ben Richards, a cop framed for murder in the not so distant future and forced to fight in a new government controlled sport to the death.

As always we would love to hear some of yours and join us as we bring...

Sometimes one take is all you need to get the perfect shot, unless everything goes wrong while it happens.

What does going through a break up, pink socks, and a demon being birthed all have in common?

Today we discuss what media fits that and what we think fits that the best. As always we would love to hear your thoughts as we cut out the filler seasons and ask, what tv shows could be movies?

Beauty may be skin deep but what if under that it happens to be an alien? Scarlett Johansson portrays this in an eerie way when an alien lures men in and then murders them. For what purpose though? We have no idea in a very bizarre film that at its worst drags on in scenes and dialogue that leads nowhere, however, at its best it has some very well done cinematography and practical effects that giv...
