Why Remaking Great Films Is A Bad Idea

The Week in Disappointment – Star Wars, The Hobbit, Merlin, Spectre and Gambit
Anghus Houvouras with this week’s disappointments from the entertainment world… “Peter Jackson admits ‘I didn’t know what the hell I was doing’ on the Hobbit” You know, I have to give Peter Jackson some props.

Is Spectre the worst James Bond movie?
Anghus Houvouras on Spectre… Sweet, sweet hyperbole. Where would we be without you? Let’s just put it out there: Spectre was terrible. A lazy, lifeless, sloppily put together excuse for a 007 outing. It had all the elements of a 007 outing: action, espionage, scenic locations, beautiful women. However, none of it seemed to click. […]

The Week in Disappointment – Shia LaBeouf, Star Wars, Prometheus, Fantastic Four, Jem and the Holograms, Johnny Depp
Anghus Houvouras with this week’s disappointments from the entertainment world… “Shia LaBeouf is watching all of his movies in a row” They say you have to suffer for your art.
