So frustrating!!! It would appear that Paramount have opted for released the first full-length trailer for Captain America: The First Avenger in multiple 6 second clips meaning if we have a two minute trailer on our hands, we have another 17 of these to come! Just release it already!! This is all getting rather annoying [...]

One of the biggest surprises for me at SXSW 2011 was the fact that The Beaver was actually an excellent film! It’ll have you laughing at the beginning and then crying by the end. Jodie Foster was at the Premiere to introduce the movie and opened by telling us that this wasn’t a comedy and [...]
