We’re still here – the apocalypse didn’t happen, and like most of America, we didn’t see a new movie this week. We talk about the disappointing openings for This is 40 and Jack Reacher before using the opportunity to discuss our favorites and the best of 2012… so far (keep in mind that many of the year’s “best” pictures only see limited release before... 

We already have an awesome review of The Cabin in the Woods and I have little more to add to that sentiment: this is a game-changing movie and should definitely be taken in by anyone who has a penchant for these kinds of films. Even days later the movie has stuck with me and continues to make me consider the consequences of the story. More than just the consequences within the movie, I keep thinking... 

We’re back after a few weeks’ absence. With our return we talk about The Raven and The Cabin in the Woods, one of which is the most awesome movie several of us have seen in theaters in quite a while (hint: it doesn’t have John Cusack in it). After our reviews we start laying out the summer with a thumbs up/thumbs down for the upcoming potential blockbusters. What are we most interested... 

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. You might notice a lack of fresh reviews on the website this week. Not only have I been completely slammed, but none of our writing staff took... 

You’ve heard Tim make his weekly predictions on our podcast, guessing how the box office numbers are going to play out as we discuss each week’s estimates. Now we’re putting them down in text just to see how good Tim’s track record winds up. Tune in each week as we compare Tim’s predictions against the actual numbers from the box office weekend, as Tim takes on the Box Office. Well after... 

Over the past decade or two (or perhaps since their inception), horror movies have been plagued by cliches. Few fright films can escape the trappings of the genre and make a lasting impression. The Cabin in the Woods not only embraces those cliches, it plays with them, twists them, spinning those cliches on their heads. The cliches are the movie. The result is quite possibly one of the most enjoyable... 

I’ve been looking forward to Joss Whedon’s The Cabin in the Woods for a while now. There’s just something about the old-fashioned “cabin in the woods” story that’s appealing (see: The Evil Dead, Cabin Fever, and Tucker and Dale vs. Evil for example), and I have been interested in seeing what that concept would be like in the hands of someone like Whedon – an artist who turned the...
