Star Trek (2009) was one of the most fun movies I’ve seen in a long, long time.

It was great seeing Leonard Nimoy reprise his role as “Spock Prime” in [...]

I’m an unabashed, out-in-the-open, giant monster-flick lover. I’ve got something to chew on for the next few months now.
First unveiled in the release of this summer’s Transformers, the trailer to what appears to be a new monster flick by JJ Abrams (of “Alias” TV show fame) is slated to be released January 18th, [...]
