Paranormal Parody – A Haunted House
@marlonlwayans #AHauntedHouse is a bad title, too generic, no black people are gonna call it this, why didn't u just go with Paranormal Blacktivity? Ur writing is raunchy, juvenile, stupid, racial and ridiculous yet I LOL'd so much in spite of myself. This movie will find it's core audience and they'll be lovin :-D the whole thing!

Favorite Films of 2012 and Favorite Posts of 2012
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor As a film blogger, I do see a considerable number of films/movies during the year, yet when it comes time to pick my favorites, and the Golden Globe Nominations are revealed, it becomes abundantly and disappointingly clear that I didn’t see nearly enough films/movies to make a proper judgment. I also swear, I’m constantly doing write-ups on what I do see, but then at the end of the year, there’s a whole host of movies I never did a post about, or just a very short commentary on facebook. (by the way, please like my facebook page – it’s at 143 likes, 150 would be…

Writer/Director Quentin Tarantino likes to rewrite history, imagining some kick ass retribution that levels the playing field. First annihilating the Nazi’s in…

Will You Stop Eating Cupcakes! – THIS IS 40
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor If I had realized the characters in Judd Apatow’s This Is 40, were the same couple from Knocked Up, I would not have gone to see this movie. I hated Alison’s (Katherine Heigl’s) annoying, abrasive, argumentative sister and brother-in-law. My amnesia is not surprising considering Knocked Up is on my list of “never need to see again movies” – just did not see the funny.

Most importantly, Debbie…

Très Bon: Les Misérables (Golden Globe Nominated)
It’s hard for me to remember a time when the song “Do You Hear The People Sing” has not been among the top rotation of songs that just constantly live in my head. I’m not very political and I’m far too afraid of being arrested to ever actually participate in a sit in; nonetheless, I have a fantasy about taking a stand for some injustice and just when defeat seems imminent and those that stand with me seem about to cave, I break out loud and clear with: (see video below) The truth of the matter, I, like so many others have listened to Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil‘s score…
