Thomas’ Obligatory Best Films of 2012 List
Oh early spring film releases. The Oscar films have gone wide, the crappy horror/comedy/romantic movies are getting ready to do well for an opening weekend before exiting quickly and the critical community is organizing their obligatory top ten lists. Now, given that this is my first top ten list on an actual site, I figured that I had to go all out in terms of stockpiling on film consumption for the...

Weekly Blend #297 – They’re Coming to Get You, Thomas
It’s been a few weeks since our last show, so we catch up with an old friend and go over what we’ve been doing in the interim, both good and bad. You’ll hear reviews of Wanderlust and Act of Valor and a discussion of why it’s hard to give honest but sometimes negative reviews of movies like Act of Valor or Tyler Perry movies. That doesn’t stop the latest addition to...

Box Office Results: Underestimating The Vow
Part of looking at movies does involve the business side of show business. We try to have a little fun with it, as each week Tim makes his predictions as to how movies will perform at the Box Office. Then, on Sundays, we look at how Tim’s predictions fared.
Well, we’ve hit a new low. While Tim managed to pick the top five for the week, he was way off on the order and nowhere close to the record...

Weekly Blend #295 – Movies Take Over the Super Bowl
I promised we would try some new things since we came back, and this week is representative of that. First, we’re joined by our friend Kelly, who adds a female voice back to the show even if it does mean some razzing for liking Channing Tatum and Grey’s Anatomy. Secondly, we open up the Skype-line to see who calls in. This week it’s the latest addition to the Widescreen Warrior writing...

In Theaters: Big Miracle, Chronicle, and The Woman in Black [Feb 3rd]
What better way to kick off February than with the return of an old friend? “In Theaters” is our weekly look at what is coming out in theaters each week. I’ll add in a little commentary and some of the Widescreen Warrior staff offer up their picks for the week – this is not the movie we think will be the most successful, but what movie we would (or will) shell out money to see...
