I don't have a heap invested in this movie, but I am pretty happy with Chris Evans being cast as Cap. I enjoyed him in FF and also in that stupid movie he did with Dakota Fanning (someone help with the name, they all had different super powers, Dakota could draw the future, etc.....) Push? I though...

I usually just watch the trailers. If I hear lots of bad buzz (like for Clash of the Titans) I'll skip it, but otherwise, not a lot of prep. The exception would be Watchmen, I kept the trade in the "reading room" and when I got to the end I'd start over again, and I listened to the LOD tra...

Robin Hood , really didn't seem like Robin Hood, did it? No, that's kinda what I was trying to say. How ever, the acting, cinematography, etc were all top notch. Had it been called "Longstride comes Home" or some worthy title, they would have been better off. But I enjoyed it, nonetheless.

For those of you who eat hamburgers, what's your perfect hamburger? Free. What's on it? Cheese, Bacon, Lettuce, Tomoto, Mayo, Pickle, BBQ sauce if available. Do you make it yourself or do you have to go to a fast food joint or restaurant to get it? I can make it myself, but I prefer a restaurant bur...

Kwok Talk S05E11

In a summer of 80's style popcorn shoot 'em ups, here's another. It has plenty of explosions, fight scenes and car chases, which are the three things I ask for in an action movie. Cruise is charming as our "hero." Plot is interesting enough, but if you're watching action movies for plot, y...

I recently visited my mom and got all of my GI Joes out of the attic. Unfortunately, the O ring in the middle has dry rotted on most of them. Should I repair them? Ebay them as is? Landfill? Anybody done this? Are the screws in the back usually stuck or do they come out with not too much effort? (I ...

Hi y'all I'm Nuggie99. I A local talk show that air while I was at work published the show as a podcast. I was curious if there were any comics podcasts, so I put that in Google and up popped the comics Podcast Network, of which one was Too Old to Grow Up. My very first post at CGS was on the Totgu ...

Favorite TV Show: Batman: The Brave and the Bold, NCIS, White Collar Favorite Comic: Red Robin (ask again tomor...

And we get grief at TOtGU because we only talk about movies we like. :) I have low standards. If you ever saw the TV show The Critic, I use the Duke Phillips scale. I want 3 things out of an action movie 1. Explosion 2. Car chase (depending the movie style, helicopters, jets, spaceships, horses, wa...

Do you feel your classes as a film student enhance you ability to enjoy movies, or do you pick through ""Oh this lighting is bad, oh this scene should have done this, I would have done it this way, etc?" (You I could have put this on FaceBook or something, but we got this thing here) ...
