2012 Oscar Movies #6 – The Tree of Life

Sue Millinocket — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:44:49 +0000

Wait…..what happened? Oh, Academy. You are full of surprises. Usually your Best Picture nominees are so predictable – dramas with social messages and a couple of popular movies that have no chance of winning. But as I’ve said before – many times now – it’s a weak year. And in weak years we get some [...]

Coming Soon – Snow White: A Deadly Summer

Sue Millinocket — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 18:06:43 +0000

Marcia, Marcia, Marcia! Are you getting tired of all the Oscar hype? Yeah, me too. Sometimes I’m just looking for something fun and schlocky and entertaining. I think I may have found the perfect movie! It’s called Snow White: A Deadly Summer. First off – awesome name. The movie stars Shanley Caswell (who?) as what [...]

New on Netflix – February 21st and February 28th

Sue Millinocket — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 22:27:23 +0000

Leap Day Edition Again, not really. But close! Another two weeks, more Netflix releases for your perusal. As I try to cram in as many Oscar nominees as possible before the broadcast, I’m still adding to my always ridiculous Netflix queue. Let’s see what we have on tap for the next couple of weeks. As [...]

2012 Oscar Movies #5 – Midnight in Paris

Sue Millinocket — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 18:52:01 +0000

Guest reviewer! Woody Allen. You love him or you hate him. Or that’s what I used to think. It turns out that some people don’t think about him at all. I wish I was one of those… But I happen to be a hater. Of both the man and his work. His movies generally put [...]

2012 Oscar Movies #4 – The Help

Sue Millinocket — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 19:17:41 +0000

Is this a chick flick? It seems to me that movies primarily perceived as being directed toward women rarely receive attention from Oscar. I suspect that this is because most movies directed primarily toward women suck. Sure, I love a sappy chick flick once in a while, but let’s face it - they’re just brain [...]

2012 Oscar Movies – Moneyball

Sue Millinocket — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 19:21:02 +0000

Three Down, So Many More to Go I had no intention of seeing Moneyball. Nothing about the trailers or descriptions sparked my interest. I’m not much of a professional sports fan to begin with, why would I want to spend even 2 hours inside the guts of the 2002 Oakland As baseball team? Answer – [...]

New on Netflix – February 7th and February 14th

Sue Millinocket — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:18:16 +0000

Valentine’s Day Edition Okay, not really. But one of the Tuesday release dates happens to fall on February 14th, so what choice did I have? interestingly enough (or not) there aren’t really any movies coming out in these next couple of weeks that I would call particularly romantic. And no, nothing Twilight counts as romantic. [...]

2012 Oscar Movie Reviews #1 – War Horse

Sue Millinocket — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 20:20:09 +0000

Hopefully saving the best for later… It’s that time of year, movie fans. OSCAR TIME! And while I’m completely underwhelmed with the nominees this year, that will certainly not stop me from seeing and reviewing as many as I can before the broadcast. I’ll be starting today with Steven Spielberg’s War Horse. I like Spielberg [...]

Netflix Caves to Warner Bros. on 56 Day Delay

Sue Millinocket — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:43:37 +0000

Redbox tells them to screw off Well, well. It looks like Netflix needs to borrow some balls from Redbox. Earlier this month it was announced that Netflix had agreed to an increased delay of Warner Bros. DVD releases – an increase to 56 days or double the current asinine delay of 28 days. The studio [...]

2012 Oscar Nominees…Yawn.

Sue Millinocket — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 22:17:06 +0000

Well, that’s a motley assortment I love the Oscars, I really do. Yet the nominees were announced days ago with nary a word from me on the topic. It’s unlike me to be quiet about anything, so why the radio silence? Well, mostly because every time I looked at the nominee list I fell asleep. [...]
