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).

Boba Fett Sucks

Boba Fett Sucks

Yes, it's quite a bold and potentially controversial statement, but I stand by my words.
Why is it that if we hate something, no one else can like it? I'm not sure, nor do I want to discuss the psychology behind it, but I am certainly one of those people. I suppose I don't hate Boba Fett, I'm fairly apathetic about the character, but the fact that everyone else seems to love him drives me nuts. Please continue reading, as I persuade you to embrace my opinion, which is the correct one.

10 Comic-Con Inside Jokes

10 Comic-Con Inside Jokes

These are the 10 things every San Diego Comic-Con goer is well familiar with. If it's not the lines, it's the crowds. There are so many things to love and hate about SDCC, but I find that even though it may sounds like I'm complaining, I kind of love it all. Here are the 10 best inside jokes understood by Comic-Con attendees.

Highlights of D23 2013

D23 Expo Logo

Being the avid Disney fan I am, and lover of entertainment, of course I headed down to Anaheim for the 2013 D23 Expo.  For those that don't know about D23, it is a purely-Disney convention that takes place across the street from Disneyland in the Anaheim Convention Center.  D23 happens once every two years, and since it started in 2009, this was only the 3rd one.  I often describe it as "Disney's version of Comic Con," although clearly not a non-profit event and much more egocentric.  Nonetheless it was a great event, and a breath of fresh air to not have to shove through hundreds of thousands of people to get anywhere, like you have to do at Comic Con.

Read about announcements and highlights after the break.

Film Review - John Carter


John Carter header

So far "John Carter" has been a flop.  To the critics that is.  And to the box office.  But both groups have failed me before, as was the case with Disney's last sci-fi blockbuster "Tron Legacy" which has become a favorite movie of mine.  It always irritates me when people decide what is good or bad before it is even released.  Google "Oscar predictions 2012" and I bet you that more than half of the movies on that list haven't premiered yet and will end up in the Oscars.  The same preconceived perceptions goes for Hollywood's blacklist, and John Carter was added to it long before anyone had seen it.  Perhaps the horrendous marketing is at fault for that.
