Wreck It Ralph: About as Funny as Pong

November 24, 2012by Evil Genius 2 Comments

In order to tear something down, first you must build. Otherwise, there’s no loss, no drama. Wreck It Ralph took a by-the-numbers plot and over-gilded it with in-jokes, asides, and […]

October 14, 2012by Evil Genius Leave a comment

The tensest part of Argo came thirty minutes in, when I thought, “Did I leave the BBQ on?” That tension lasted through Ben Affleck’s last lingering close-up when I found […]

Hysteria: Better When It Was A Def Leppard Album

October 11, 2012by Supreme Being 2 Comments

And I don’t even like Def Leppard! I was going to say that at least Hysteria the movie has more female orgasms per minute, but on second thought, I bet […]

Dollars, A Movie You’re Lucky Never To Have Seen

Goldie and Warren, why are you robbing that bank? Take that ridiculous fireman’s hat off. Look out! Germans! Do not view this movie. Watch Shampoo instead.
