Resident Evil: Retribution
Blu-ray Review: Surprisingly Fun ‘Resident Evil: Retribution’
Submitted by BrianTT on January 3, 2013 - 11:43amCHICAGO – There’s no logical reason at all for a FIFTH “Resident Evil” movie to be any good at all, especially given how poorly the series has gone since the relatively-fun first installment. I approached “Resident Evil: Retribution” with an understandably heavy amount of trepidation. Most Paul W.S. Anderson movies are a complete waste of time.
Book Review: ‘Alien: The Illustrated Story’ Emphasizes Lost Art of Film Adaptations
Submitted by BrianTT on October 2, 2012 - 3:01pmCHICAGO – I’m old enough dear readers to remember when books were more interesting tie-ins for feature films than websites and video games. When we fell in love with a movie, we had action figures, Happy Meal toys, and, believe it or not, books. There was a time when collecting everything related to your favorite flick meant a novel adaptation and one of the absolute best, the graphic novel edition known as “Alien: The Illustrated Story” has just been reissued to show readers why this is an art form they should miss.
