    Movie Blog Post: Alice Through the Looking Glass | Captain America: Civil War | X-men: Apocalypse

    May 29, 2016 /

    Even Alice (Mia Wasikowska) who fervently believes in 6 impossible things before breakfast, knows that time has the final say on death and can't get behind her friend the Hatter's (Johnny Depp) notion that his family, the hat making Hightopps, [of which he was estranged, being the black, rather colorful sheep of the family] could still be found or brought back...

    David O. Russell’s 8th Movie: JOY

    January 3, 2016 /

        Red Wine on Teak Floors = “Joy”   By Le Anne Lindsay, Tinsel & Tine Editor The first thing I liked about JOY, David O. Russell’s latest vehicle starring Jennifer Lawrence, was the trailer. It gave very little away, you knew the protagonist lived with her entire family, including an ex-husband and that she wants them to get behind her on an idea to hopefully get them out of low economic circumstances, but that’s it. The rest of the images could take the story in many different directions, so you walk into the movie, open for anything. I’ve read some of the criticism of  “Joy”, most critics feel…

    Geeks in the Round: FANTASTIC FOUR (Black Tribbles Spoiled Tribbles)

    August 6, 2015 /

       Spoiled Tribbles Post-Screening Group Review:  FANTASTIC FOUR  (Podcast) The reboot of FANTASTIC FOUR has hit. It’s been a very Marvel summer! See Tinsel & Tine’s Avengers:The Age of Ultron, Marvel Experience and Ant Man Posts. I know I’m not alone in thinking – a reboot, already?  But then I tried to think back on my opinion of the 2005 version of Fantastic Four (pre-T&T) directed by Tim Story – and all I can remember is Julian McMahon played the Villain Victor Von Doom. I can’t tell you if he was a convincing Dr. Doom, just that because of  Dr. Christian Troy (Nip/Tuck) and Cole Turner (Charmed) I pretty much…

    Bespoke Spies KINGSMAN:THE SECRET SERVICE

    February 12, 2015 /

    Kingsman: The Secret Service Review By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Due to my former life as an Events Director for The Racquet Club of Philadelphia, a city club with a venerable and stately environment – once only open to gentlemen of a certain birth and station, I can appreciate the sentiment behind Matthew Vaughn’s (Layer Cake, X-Men First Class) spy thriller KINGSMAN:THE SECRET SERVICE.  This is a world of bespoke suits, a code of conduct, established rituals, loyalty and a sense of belonging. And then you add in kick-ass action and it becomes a movie! We all know Colin Firth is a wonderful actor, but I think it’s even more…
