On Film: Mars Needs Moms!

Take out the trash, eat your broccoli—who needs moms, anyway?  Nine-year-old Milo (Seth Green) finds out just how much he needs his mom (Joan Cusack) when she’s nabbed by Martians who plan to steal her mom-ness for their own young. Produced by the team behind “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” and “The Polar Express,” “Mars Needs Moms” showcases Milo’s quest to save his mom—a wild adventure in Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D that involves stowing away on a spaceship, navigating an elaborate, multi-level planet and taking on the alien nation and their leader (Mindy Sterling). With the help of a tech-savvy, underground earthman named Gribble (Dan Fogler) and a rebel Martian girl called Ki (Elisabeth Harnois), Milo just might find his way back to his mom—in more ways than one.

On TV: Sanctuary Doesn’t Stop for the Holiday!

Dr. Magnus scans a deserted building with Kate and Will, and creepiness seems to lurk around every corner.  They meet up to discuss next steps and come to the conclusion they should probably leave and come back with a bigger team to investigate deeper into the mysteries that appear evident.  As they’re leaving, Dr. Magnus appears to get stuck behind and can’t open the door while she sees Will and Kate venturing off.  You’ll have to watch the clip and tune in on Friday at 10/9c on Syfy to find out what happens next.  Thanks so much for posting!

Contest: That’s Right, Prizes! Exit Through the Gift Shop!

To celebrate the release of a fascinating new film we’ve got a cool prize pack for you!

Exit Through the Gift Shop available now on iTunes and VOD!

Become a fan on Facebook at http://on.fb.me/ExitThroughTheGiftShopContest
Buy on iTunes at http://bit.ly/BanksyiTunes

This is the inside story of Street Art – a brutal and revealing account of what happens when fame, money and vandalism collide. Exit Through the Gift Shop follows an eccentric shop-keeper turned amateur film-maker as he attempts to capture many of the world’s most infamous vandals on camera, only to have a British stencil artist named Banksy turn the camcorder back on its owner with wildly unexpected results.

One of the most provocative films about art ever made, Exit Through the Gift Shop is a fascinating study of low-level criminality, comradeship and incompetence. By turns shocking, hilarious and absurd, this is an enthralling modern-day fairytale… with bolt cutters.

  • Exit Through the Gift Shop DVD
  • Limited Edition “Exit Through the Gift Shop” Theatrical Poster

“If one were to say in a word what the condition of being a samurai is, its basis lies first in seriously devoting one’s body and soul to his master.”
The Way of the Samurai

Is there anything better than finding a DVD in your mailbox of a samurai film that you haven’t seen? And it stars Tomisaburo Wakayama (Lone Wolf and Cub)? I quickly opened this one and gave it a try. …continue reading

On Film: Skyline

Directed by Colin Strause, Greg Strause
Starring Eric Balfour, Donald Faison, Scottie Thompson, David Zayas

There’s a lot of controversy around this film mostly due to the fact that the two brothers that created it are being sued due to their involvement in another similar film. These guys directed this film but they were originally doing special FX for another very similar film hence the lawsuit. Outside of that what we’re looking at here is whether the film is actually good. …continue reading
