My father and I often disagree about the rewatching films.  I maintain that watching a film is a reciprocal process.  Simply put, when you watch a film – especially a great film – not only is much brought to you by the film, much is also brought to the film by us.  So much is […]

I had no idea how fragile the human body really was until I saw The Raid 2 … honestly no idea. Over the course of its two and a half hours though; I was thoroughly educated to say the least. Director Gareth Evans and star Iko Uwais are back after the success of their partnership […]

It’s also part of a larger transmedia project that will include an animated version of this story, mini-games, and […]

Friends, gamers, readers lend me your ears. I have a confession.  I am a whore: a theatre whore.  However, the theatre can be a costly habit.  As a result I was overjoyed to learn of National Theatre Live, a commemorative project celebrating the NT’s 50th anniversary.  The premise: theatre productions are broadcast direct to cinemas.  […]
