Alice in Wonderland
I know how much Ross and Ross need their regular updates of why Tim Burton is amazing so I couldn’t watch this movie without putting a few words online for their benefit. Once again we have the holy trinity of Burton, Elfman and Depp which is usually a good indicator of a decent movie, and [...]

Once again, I’m being entirely unoriginal here, but what kind of blogger would I be if I didn’t have some kind of Christmas post on here? Everyone has their Christmas traditions, and among mine are a certain set of films which absolutely must be watched before the big day. Some start to get you in [...]

So, now that I’ve seen Watchmen what’s next on my list? Well, I’m really looking forward to X Men Origins coming out in May, but I’m guessing there’s very few people who haven’t heard about that. What might have passed you by is 9, the latest offering from the mind of Tim Burton, currently in [...]
