The good news about Iron Man 3 is that it’s a sharply written, well-directed movie. The bad news is that while some of the messages it conveys to the audience hold incredible truth (e.g., “we create our own demons”), it might just be the conspiracy-theorist must-see blockbuster of the summer. Do you have any friends […]

Chris Evans: Ben Shapiro is like a mirror that reminds me I’m not a real hero, so I dislike him
May 4, 2013 By 44 Comments
Piers Morgan has a weird thing going, where he engages Ben Shapiro in debate, Ben makes a fool out him, and then like a gambler who convinces himself that it’s only a matter of time before he comes out on top, he goes back for more. Chris Evans (aka: Captain America) has decided he doesn’t […]
If you see ‘Man of Steel’ and a cop, you’ve really only seen one hero; Just ask Boston
April 18, 2013 By 1 Comment
The new ‘Man of Steel’ trailer is out, and it looks mighty good. And, truthfully, it couldn’t come at a better time. Jor El says of his son: “You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you. They will stumble. They will fall. But in time, they will join […]
Marvel to release second version of ‘Iron Man 3′ to appease China’s censorship cop overlords?
April 1, 2013 By 3 Comments
It wasn’t long ago that Marvel changed the name of Captain America to The First Avenger in places like Russia to make a few million extra bucks. Who needs artistic integrity when something as “meaningless” as the title can be fudged and fiddled with to appease fickle Commies on the other side of the globe? Well, […]
‘Beijing Punk’ exposes the Invisible Fist of fear societies
March 15, 2013 By 6 Comments
Not to long ago I wrote about the strange situation that is Iron Man 3, whereas we find ourselves living in a world where The Mandarin of all characters can no longer be Chinese because cultural sensitivity — to an oppressive Communist regime — and a desire to make a few million more bucks dictates […]
Iron Man 3′s ‘ultimate terrorist’ created by America: Shane Black provides liberalism on stark display
March 6, 2013 By 89 Comments
The new Iron Man 3 trailer is out, and it looks amazing. But looks can be deceiving, can’t they? What appears to be one hell of a movie might also be incredibly maddening, when one realizes that once again the bad guy — the “ultimate terrorist” to quote writer/director Shane Black — is really a […]
A Good day to defend the Constitution: Bruce Willis sticks to his guns on the Second Amendment
February 6, 2013 By 43 Comments
‘A Good Die to Die Hard’ will be out on Valentine’s Day, which means that Bruce Willis will be promoting it heavily for the next two weeks. It also means that that, like Sylvester Stallone, he’s going to get a slew of questions pertaining about gun violence. Given his celebrity status, they’ll be teed up […]
Stallone’s call for gun control as ‘Bullet to the Head’ opens: Classic
February 3, 2013 By 5 Comments
As regular readers know, I’m a long-time fan of Stallone. I love his movies. I love his dedication to fitness. I love that after everyone said his career was down for the count he found a way to get back up and show the world there was still a lot of fight left inside him; […]
Bill Maher discovers: Subsidizing ‘dirt bags’ creates more ‘dirt bags’
January 27, 2013 By 9 Comments
Either Bill Maher has been watching Dinesh D’Souza videos, or he has been playing Oregon Trail. Whatever the case, it seems as if something went off in his head because he’s finally acknowledging that there are an awful lot of people asking for an awful lot from the American taxpayer. Or perhaps Maher and D’Souza […]
Zero Dark Thirty is a first class movie
January 19, 2013 By 8 Comments
Not since Paul Greengrass’ United 93 has there been a movie related to 9/11 that has impressed me as much as Kathryn Bigelow’s Zero Dark Thirty. Fittingly, the film begins with 911 calls on September 11th from a helpless victim inside the World Trade Center. A woman says to the dispatcher: “I’m going to die, […]
