I'm guessing those of you who haven't been watching the Superbowl will want to see the trailers eh? Well, Ian has got you covered! I even stayed up late (in Ireland anyways) just for you guys! Heres...
I honestly don't know if they were around before this or not, but I clearly remember the very first time I went to a midnight screening. It was for the most anticipated movie of my life.... Star Wars...
Hey there guys. Well I'm back again with another installment of my video blog. This time I'm chatting about the Ewoks. A lot of people out there dislike our little murderous flesh eating friends......
Hey guys. Here's the special "sexy" version of my video blog (I'm wearing super sexy 3d glasses... soooo sexy). Wow... they really do look horrible don't they? I've never seen them outside of the t...
[Rant] Anyone who has read or listened to The Movie Blog for any period of time knows that I am a Star Wars fanatic. Seeing the original with my mother in the movie theater is my earliest childhood ...
Just before the weekend I put up a little video blog laying out why I believe movie theaters here in North America should do what most other parts of the world do... allow patrons to pre-select their ...
We can put a man on the moon. We can watch On Demand movies on our televisions. We can access the internet from our bloody cell phones. In an age of technological wonders we are still forced to tol...
Let me set the record straight right off the bat. I am not a G.I. Joe hater at all. I am hoping this movie rocks. If this were a sporting event, and the G.I. Joe movie was about to take the field, ...
The summer is my absolute favorite season of the movie year. It's not necessarily when all the "best" movies come out into theaters, but generally speaking it's certainly when all the most fun movies...
To some it may not be a big deal, but there is NOTHING in the movie industry or movie going experience that annoys me to the point of blind furious rage more than the issue of commercials that play in...
We're a funny society. We are very quick to ignore, overlook and forgive massive wrongs committed by certain people if they are one of our favorite celebrities. I mean, if that guy can play guitar r...
The fallout has been swift and decisive. No more than 10 minutes had past from when the official 2009 Oscar Nominations where announced to when the backlash began. 90% of the backlash was over one c...
The 2009 Oscar Nominees were announced today. The obvious winner in the 2009 Oscar Nominees list was obviously The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button with 13 nominations, with Slumdog Millionaire comi...
Hey there folks. Thanks for checking out our Defiance Review. When Daniel Craig burst onto the collective consciousness as the newest James Bond (and in my opinion, the best one ever), I instantly...
It's a really weird spot I find myself in at the moment, but at the same time a very interesting one. For those of you who don't know, on Feb 2nd I start shooting my first feature film. It's a comed...
Bias isn't a bad thing in and of itself. Bias in many cases isn't a CHOICE. It is, more often than not, a result of circumstances someone finds themselves in. Bias enters the conversation when the ...
I've mentioned a few times that there are only 2 movie moments that have ever made me cry... yes I'm man enough to admit it. I've never gotten choked up at the normal things that get others emotional...
It's time for the best movies of 2008. Happy New Year everyone!!! I trust last night you all had a smashing time ushering in the new set of 365 days and then proceeded to wake up next to someone you...
It's a topic that comes up just about every single time a bad looking movie is about to come out. The trailers look bad, the premise seems lame, maybe it has a bad director at the helm or a bad "star...
There is only one honor this awards season that really means anything at all. It's not the Golden Globes. It's not the Oscars. No my friends, the one award that studios and publicists in Hollywood ...
Thanks for checking out my review in a feature I like to call Rodney's Forgotten Gems. Being the Christmas season, I thought I would write a special Christmas Edition of Rodney's Forgotten Gems. G...
Well, as we approach the end of 2008 it's time to continue the tradition and announce The Movie Blog's 10 worst films of 2008. There were a LOT of horrible movies this year so it took a while to narr...
As promised, there is The Movie Blog's DVD commentary for The Dark Knight. I'm joined in this special "production" by Soul Video and Kristopher Tapley (Robert Sanchez got held up and we had to do it ...
As the old saying goes, there are always exceptions to every rule. The rules we're talking about here is the absolute inability of TV stars to successfully make the transition to movie stars. Yes, ...
It really wasn't until Comic Con that I had any idea about the phenomenon Twilight had become. To be honest, I hadn't even HEARD of Twilight until just a few short months before that when word of a f...
Well, today is the official opening day of "Twilight". A very highly anticipated movie... not because of the marketing campaign (which has been average at best), but because of the rabid and loyal fo...
I make no secret about it. Besides Christmas, the Oscars are my favorite time of year. Since I'm a movie freak that really shouldn't surprise anyone. The one day that we celebrate the year that was...
There were few films coming out this year that were as highly anticipated as The Dark Knight, and for good reason. Batman Begins re-energized the Batman franchise and delivered us the very best Batma...
I've talked at length in the past about Star Trek and the fact that it's a dead franchise and in serious need of changes to be resuscitated. This past week some new images from the upcoming new Star ...
Often when I think about the topic of Video Game movies, the theme song from the classic Disney film "Beauty and the Beast" comes to mind Ever just the same Ever a surprise Ever as before Ever just a...
It was the best performance of his career (yes I think it was better than his performance in Brokeback Moutain). It was, in my opinion the single greatest performance ever given in a comic book based...
How did the command to "Love Your Enemies" get so complicated? This was the question I had for years both when I was a minister in the church and ever since I left it. It seemed to me the religious r...
A truly gifted actor is an amazing thing to see in action. The good ones have the ability to make you forget where you are and what you're doing by drawing you in and convincing you you're in a diffe...
Ok look, before I say anything else let me put this out there first. I frigging LOVE Simon Pegg. I think he has some of the best comedic timing, both as straight man and protagonist working in the i...
There are circumstances when an actor who always seems to be the exact same bloody guy is forgivable. When you go to see a Steven Seagal movie (do people still go to see Steven Seagal movies?), you e...
Making any sort of "Top 10" list is always a tricky and dangerous thing. As I always say, all film is subjective, and that means no one on the planet will 100% agree with my list (and believe it or n...
As film fans we have plenty of good reasons to complain about Hollywood and the state of the film industry all the time. Clearly they're doing something right since we are film fans and keep going ba...
**DON'T FORGET. THE MOVIE BLOG: UNCUT LIVE VIDEO SHOW IS ON TONIGHT AT 8PM EST (5PM PST). THE VIDEO WILL BEGIN STREAMING LIVE IN THE PLAYER ON THE UPPER RIGHT AT THE START TIME. JOIN US. GET YOUR ...
2008 seems to be the year of Robert Downey Jr. and why not? The man has gone through a lot of hell (it should be pointed out that it was all his own damn fault), but managed to pick himself up and re...
It's been 7 years and I still remember exactly where I was, what I was doing and what exactly I was feeling. I was living in Saskatoon Saskatchewan in 2001 and on the morning of September 11th I was ...
