New Image of Abin Sur from Green Lantern

abin sur green lantern

In every comic book adaptation war there are casualties, those that fall by the wayside, cast asunder by the movie going public. Who might it be this year? X-Men: First Class? Thor? Captain America? My money is on Green Lantern. Although Ryan Reynolds has “charisma to burn” (or whatever the phrase of choice might be [...]

Is The 12A Certificate Still Valid?

12a certiicate

Let me begin by saying that I do not read The Daily Mail, I do not vote BNP and I certainly do not believe in unwarranted censorship. This is not some scare-mongering piece of propaganda which illegitimately claims that Kick-Ass promotes paedophilia, Machete sponsors racism and Childs Play 3 will turn your children into knife-wielding [...]

WWE All Stars Review

WWE All Stars

Unless you’re a die-hard wrestling fan, it’s unlikely you would have ever bemoaned the sport/panto for being too serious. But, wrestling fan or not, WWE All Stars is such a silly, irreverent and cartoony departure from its franchise brethren, it’s something casual gamers may well find a surprise. Billed as housing ‘the greatest WWE roster [...]

Confessions of a Dog Review

Confessions of a Dog DVD Cover

“Aren’t you ashamed?” is a phrase oft repeated in Gen Takahashi’s blistering portrait of the Japanese police force, Confessions of a Dog, and it is one that is levelled as squarely at the audience as it is the ‘villains’ presented on screen. Over the course of just over three hours Takahashi paints a depressing picture [...]
