THE MPAA FINALLY GETS IT RIGHT

It’s rare that I have an opportunity to say anything nice about the MPAA, the board who decides what ratings movies will get. All too often the ratings applied by the MPAA are insane, and the reasons they give for their ratings – complaining that the “tone” of a scene in The Devil’s Rejects was … Continue reading

PEEK INTO PAN’S LABYRINTH

The first pictures from CHUDdie buddy Guillermo del Toro’s new film, Pan’s Labyrinth, have shown up and, in my professional estimation, they fucking rock.
