When it comes to memorable movie lines, Princess Bride quotes are among the most popular. That’s because the film–based on the 1973 novel by William Goldman–never takes itself too seriously. It also doesn’t hurt that the feature is filled with memorable roles from performers such as Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, Billy Crystal, Christopher […]
The Marilyn Monroe quotes on this list were uttered by one of the most iconic actresses to ever perform on the big screen. I’m talking about Norma Jeane Baker, a brunette beauty who grew up in various foster homes, became a model, and later ascended to the top of Hollywood. Along the way, she captured […]
If you’ve seen any of the 10 best Jason Statham movies on this list, then you know the balding Brit is an on-screen force to be reckoned with. He’s appeared in almost 30 films since his 1998 debut–doing most of his own stunts and fights–and he shows no signs of slowing down. In real life, […]
It’s only fitting that numerous Edgar Allan Poe movies exist, as the Boston-born writer (1809-1849) has had a major impact on the development of American literature. One of the first of his countrymen to experiment with the short story, Poe was also an accomplished poet, editor, and literary critic. While the latter two talents have been […]
To qualify for this list of the 13 best meta horror movies, a film has to somehow acknowledge that it’s more than a simple work of fiction. The methods used to achieve this vary, but some of the most common include repeated references to other works within the genre or the blatant examination of horror […]
Movies like The Hunger Games are scarce, although those that do meet the criteria could just as easily be called “Films Featuring Tournaments to the Death.” That’s because the 2012 Hunger Games movie–based on the bestselling young-adult novel from Suzanne Collins–revolves around 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) who’s forced to participate in a brutal killing […]
The 2012 Razzie Awards were announced the day before the Oscars, and the actual event will be held on April Fool’s Day. Honoring the worst movies of the previous year, this ceremony marks the 32nd time that Hollywood has officially been called on the carpet for unleashing slipshod goods for the consumption of the general […]
2012 Oscar Winners The 84th annual Academy Awards were held last night in Hollywood, and it was the perfect time to either be French or have an abiding love for the city of Paris. That’s because The Artist and Hugo–each set in the City of Light–walked away with five awards apiece. After decades of snide […]
It’s time for my 2012 Oscar predictions, as Hollywood’s most-watched annual event will be taking place on Sunday, February 26th. Hosted for the ninth time by Billy Crystal, the 84th Academy Awards ceremony promises an evening filled with winners, losers, and lots of questionable fashion decisions. Oddly enough, Hollywood’s top awards are dominated by a […]
November 10th marks the celebration of USMC Day, a holiday which recognizes the creation of the United States Marine Corps on the same day back in 1775. Since that time, Marines have participated in every conflict involving the United States, and the public’s enduring fascination with these fighting men and women have guaranteed their depiction […]
