M. Night Shyamalan Movies

Sunday, February 20, 2011 at 7:39 am

I’ve never been a big fan of M. Night Shyamalan movies.

That being said, I still wanted to put […]

If you’ve watched one or more Kevin Smith movies, then you’ll notice a number of recurring elements. First, there’s the toilet humor and liberal use of foul language.

Peter Jackson Movies Like a kid in a cinematic candy store, New Zealand director Peter Jackson never misses an opportunity to sprinkle his films with fantastical elements and often a healthy dose of black humor. He’s best known for his big-screen adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings series, but he also made a […]

Quentin Tarantino Movies

If you’re unfamiliar with Quentin Tarantino movies, then you’ve been missing out on one of the most dynamic filmmakers to come along in the last 20 years. Sure, his manic behavior, large forehead, and all-around geekiness set him apart from more reserved (ie “normal”) contemporaries like Robert Rodriguez, but he makes up for it by […]
