Top Ten: Movie Franchises (by THE COUNTDOWN!)

Top 10 Franchises: According to Paul from The Countdown: Movie and TV Reviews! (On Twitter!) I’m used to making lists.

Top Ten: Movie Franchises

Franchises. No, not… I mean, MOVIE franchises. Why make one good movie when you can make somewhere between three and a hundred movies of varying quality, right? Hollywood is ON BOARD with this notion. If a movie is released to more than 2000 theaters nationwide, you can almost bet someone behind it all envisions it becoming a sprawling film empire. As someone who grew up … Continue reading Top Ten: Movie Franchises

BEST MOVIE FRANCHISES By Andrew Morgan, Host of The NOMCAST – Netflix Original Movie Podcast (@jokesondrew / @nomcastpod / Nomcastpod.com) With the inception of the “Summer Blockbuster” with Jaws in 1975, the movie industry changed forever. Prior to Jaws, most major film releases came out during the Winter months when most people would go to the movies (especially in the Northeast to escape those terrible winters or your relatives … Continue reading Top Ten: Movie Franchises (by THE NOMCAST!)

Ranking The Friday The 13th Franchise Movies

I don’t actually call the Friday The 13th movies “Friday The 13th”. I mean… I know that’s the name of the Franchise, but it just doesn’t work for me. They’re “Jason Movies”. They’ve always been “Jason Movies” to me, and they always will be “Jason Movies” to me. Even when a startling number of them don’t have… you know… Jason in them. That’s weird. But … Continue reading Ranking The Friday The 13th Franchise Movies

Thirteen The Fridayth: Part 3!

In case the title isn’t tipping you off, we’ve been here before. Twice, even! Nary a Friday the 13th passes without my ranting about horror flicks. It’s mostly a horror stream of consciousness, frankly. I never go into these articles with a plan. Planning is for people that have something important to say! So what’s not important right now…? I was recently at some very dear friends’ going … Continue reading Thirteen The Fridayth: Part 3!

Jab’s Disney Reviews: Dumbo and Bambi

DUMBO (1941) Dumbo came on the heels of a couple of financial failures (Pinocchio & Fantasia), and so was one of the first Disney movies made “on the cheap”. However, this cheapness in animation allowed the directors to focus on acting rather than showing off fancy backgrounds, and so we got one of the more personable tales. And this one’s a doozy of an iconic film- is there any more … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Dumbo and Bambi

Jab’s Disney Reviews: Fantasia

FANTASIA (1940) One of Walt’s big “Doing It For The Art” pictures, Fantasia was high concept even for the new art form of Animated Film (like, this is the THIRD Disney feature). Walt REALLY wanted to add some culture to the genre, and so did a series of shorts based around pieces of classical music- stuff so elaborate it needed entirely new sound systems placed into theaters. … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Fantasia

Thirteen The Fridayth: Part 2

Wait a minute… This feels familiar. (Also, the longer I look at the word (“word”) “Fridayth”, the more I think it looks like the name of a Norse deity. Just throw a misplaced J in there, and we are good to go. Frijdayth! The dawn of our Norn blessings!) Anyway, remember back in October when we ranked our best candies in honor of Halloween? Originally, I wanted that … Continue reading Thirteen The Fridayth: Part 2

Jab’s Disney Reviews: Pinocchio

PINOCCHIO (1940): Written by: Carlo Collodi (original serial), Aurelius Battaglia, William Cottrell, Otto Englander, Erdman Penner, Joseph Sabo, Ted Sears & Webb Smith Pinocchio was the second Disney film produced, and now one of the most iconic, though like most of the post-Snow White canon, it initially failed at the box office due to World War II, and only made its money back through the “every seven years” … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Pinocchio

Book Of Lies’ Top Ten Horror Movie Monsters!

When it comes to ranking the 10 scariest movie monsters the challenge is separating themonsters from the humans. Because, while tons of humans behave monstrously or becomesupernatural monsters by magic or sheer will, they are/were nonetheless human.I believe it’s cheating to put some seriously scary human characters like Michael Meyers(Halloween) or Jason Voorhees in this category because while they are excellent movie villains,they don’t quite … Continue reading Book Of Lies’ Top Ten Horror Movie Monsters!

Top Ten: Horror Movie Monsters/Villains

I have had a long love/hate relationship with horror movies. I have written on my previous site in some depth about my history with horror flicks, and I will be revisiting those articles from the archive soon enough (as in: HERE’S the first one). The abbreviated backstory is this: I was RAISED on awful 80’s slashers. When I was [single-digits] years old, my mom, dad, … Continue reading Top Ten: Horror Movie Monsters/Villains
