The 20 Greatest Summer Movies

That's a very opinionated title, right? Nothing says classic summer film more than a (mostly) feel-good epic blockbuster. But there's so much more that defines a movie as a good summer film. Sure, many were released during the summer, take place during summer, there's often some magical element to them, and many times they follow an adventurous adolescent. They're nostalgic, but mostly there's just this underlying undefinable factor that feels... well... summery. So enjoy the summer of 2016 by watching (or rewatching) these timeless films to fully immerse yourself in the season of summer.

Video Game Review - Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
Developed by Naughty Dog

Out of the of the scores of video games I've played and loved, most tend to heavily rely on high-concepts and convoluted plots, vapid stories and shallow heroes that have been devoid of carrying much emotional weight or connection with the gamer. None of those things describe this game. This is a 15 hour interactive movie that will rival any blockbuster film you'll see in the theater this summer. Amongst the most cinematic video games, it stands as king. (In which case, The Last of Us would be queen).

16 Movies to Look Forward to in 2016

I'm really concerned about the trend I'm creating here, because it was already too much work to find 16 movies this early on that I'm really anticipating, but alas, I've compiled a list, so that you don't have to! The year 2019 will be 3 movies more difficult! Most films I see I end up rating 6 or a 7 out of 10, and I'm assuming 90% of these films will fall into that rating, but every year there are one or two gems that really stand out. I'm excited to see which ones those end up being. Anyways, here's 16 movies that look great this year in order of my excitement (least to greatest).
