Hey, It's That Guy!
TheWolf - wrote on 11/09/11 at 03:00 PM CT
Has it ever hit you how many times you watch a movie and you suddenly recognize an actor who seems familiar? You've been watching the film for a while and suddenly some random character meanders across the screen, says something witty, gets hit by a car, or acts like a complete ass, and you think "I've seen that guy before!" but you can't exactly place what you've seen him in before.
This has …

For anyone who has been wild about Harry since J. K. Rowling first put pen to paper, seeing the last film in theaters may have been like bidding an old friend goodbye.
1) Fear not Potter fans, the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2 gives you one last glimpse at the boy wizard and providing you go with this release, plenty of extras as well. Additional scenes, a look at …
What Once Was a PG Rating

Yesterday I decided to revisit a film I haven't seen since...well, probably when Reagan was President, Tootsie. For those of you who haven't seen it, it's one of Dustin Hoffman's best films - a 1982 comedy about an actor who, struggling to find work, decides to dress as a woman and audition for a soap opera. He gets the role and wouldn't you know it, his character becomes a break-out star. Add …

The Top Gadgets/Gizmos/Goodies I’d Like to Yank Right Off of the Silver Screen. (For one reason or another)

1. The DeLorean/Flux Capacitor – Back to the Future (1985) – Sure, the more sensible person of today would simply take the Capacitor with the hope of installing it into a more durable, safe, snazzy modern vehicle. But I, having never been known as …
Weekend Box Office: Tower Heist, Harold & Kumar Can't Take Down Puss in Boots
Chris Kavan - wrote on 11/06/11 at 10:56 PM CT
It wasn't a stellar week for Stiller and Co. nor for a stoner duo as instead audiences gave an animated spin-off the most attention for the second week in a row.
Not only did Puss in Boots take the top spot, with a just a 3.1% drop in its second week, it was the smallest non-holiday drop for any film playing in over 2,500 theaters. Taking in Just over $33 million, the animated film now stands …
New Movies to Crave: Get High on Christmas with Harold & Kumar or Join the Tower Heist
Chris Kavan - wrote on 11/04/11 at 11:10 AM CT
Two comedies will duke it out for weekend supremacy, unless a certain cat can show he still has claws.
1) I'm giving the edge to Tower Heist, simply because I like the timely matter of the story and the ensemble cast, including a reactivated Eddie Murphy, actually looks like they're having fun. It looks like a straight comedic version of the Ocean's film - who can resist Ben Stiller paired …
Does Filmcrave Feed Your Movie Addiction?

My very first film viewed in a theater was Stand By Me. I can vividly remember the four friends traveling along the railroad encountering a myriad of adventures. It had elements of drama and comedy and I enjoyed the experience especially watching it with my class back in grade school, since our school sponsored it.
Another major influence was viewing Star Wars in Betamax format. Who …
New DVD and Blu-Ray Releases to Crave: Water Those Elephants, Fall Crazy in Stupid Love & Cars Too!
Chris Kavan - wrote on 11/01/11 at 10:59 AM CT
A little romance to warm up the coming winter - and something to keep the kids occupied while you snuggle away.
1) Out of the two romantic options, I'm throwing my weight behind the one that's also a comedy. Crazy, Stupid, Love also has the benefit of having a great cast, including Steve Carell, indie favorite Ryan Gosling and just cute-as-a-button Emma Stone. If I have to be subjected to …
Weekend Box Office: Puss in Boots Claws Its Way to the Top
Chris Kavan - wrote on 10/31/11 at 12:22 PM CT
With so many things happening this weekend: baseball, snow storms and early Halloween celebrations, the box office was a bit frightening over the weekend.
None-the-less, there was a winner and it happened to be feline in nature. Puss in Boots, a spin-off from the Shrek series, took in $34 million to lead the pack. It was helped by 3D, which accounted for 51% of the take. Despite the #1 …
New Movies to Crave: Can Puss in Boots Bring Down Johnny Depp, Justin Timberlake and The Bard?
Chris Kavan - wrote on 10/28/11 at 10:31 AM CT
Survey says: Most likely. For one thing, there hasn't been a lot for families to sit down to lately, so an animated film, especially one featuring a hugely popular character from an already-popular franchise is sure to draw in that crowd.
1) So Puss in Boots, with Antonio Banderas taking on the slick feline, is joined by Salma Hayek, Zach Galifianakis, Billy Bob Thornton and Amy Sedaris and …
