Find out the answer to these very important questions in our latest episode!

ORIGINAL REMAKE: No Strings Attached and Friends with Benefits

On this episode we make no firm commitment to either of 2011’s films about sleeping around as we enjoy both NO STRINGS ATTACHED and FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS. We of course try to create the perfect couple out of the two on-screen   pairs of Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher going up against Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake, but also the great supporting characters played by Lake Bell, Greta Gerwig, and Mindy Kaling. Along the way we prove to only be suitable discussing such matters about movie characters as we relay a couple of times when a “friends with benefits” philosophy has backfired on us in real life.  So don’t worry about being trapped in a long-term relationship with us… though we would appreciate a subscribe and any follows from the links down below!

The Shining prequel gets a director

The only thing that scares me more than a sequel is the prequel. Taken From  Yahoo By Justin Kroll Mark Romanek is in negotiations to helm Warner Bros.’ Overlook Hotel, a prequel to the Stanley Kubrick classic The Shining. Former Walking Dead showrunner Glen Mazzara recently turned in his draft for the original story, with Mythology’s Brad Fischer, James Vanderbilt and Laeta Kalogridis producing. Based on Stephen King’s original prologue to The Shining, which was cut from the book prior to publication in 1977, the film will tell the origin story of the Overlook Hotel through the eyes of its first owner, Bob T. Watson. A robber baron at the turn of the 20th century, Watson scaled the remote peaks of the Colorado Rockies to build the grandest resort in America, and a place he and his family would also call home Starring Jack Nicholson, the original Shining revolved around a writer who takes his family to an isolated hotel for the winter where an evil presence influences him to commit

Shawscope Volume One Review

Shawscope Volume One is a 10-disc mega-box set containing 8 blu-rays and 2 CDs, is not only the most anticipated release of the year but is arguably one of the most anticipated releases since blu-ray first launched as a format in 2006. Shaw Brothers Studios officially originated in 1958 as the successor to the Tianyi Film Company. Under the leadership of Run Run Shaw, the company popularized kung fu films and launched many careers of some of Hong Kong's biggest stars. The studio's films have had a lasting impact, going on to influence the likes of Quentin Tarantino and the Wu-Tang Clan. With the release of Shawscope Volume One, Arrow looks to shine a much-deserved light on 12 kung fu classics from the Godfathers of Hong Kong Cinema. 

Teaser Trailer and 6 Posters for Amazon Studios Remake of SUSPIRIA

A darkness swirls at the center of a world-renowned dance company, one that will engulf the troupe's artistic director, an ambitious young dancer, and a grieving psychotherapist. Some will succumb to the nightmare. Others will finally wake up. Suspiria arrives in theaters November 2. From director Luca Guadagnino. Starring Dakota Johnson, Tilda Swinton, Mia Goth, Jessica Harper and Chloe Grace Moretz. Like most remakes, I have little to no faith that this adaptation will hold up to the original. With that being said this teaser trailer is about as good as I could have hoped for, now I'm slightly more optimistic. We'll have to wait until November 2nd of this year to find out if my new found optimism proves to be misguided. At the very least renewed interest in the original is never a bad thing. Below I've included 5 teaser posters.
