The Shining has long been considered as one of the more horrifying haunted house tales. King himself however, had expressed the opinion that Kubrick’s version, while popular, did not actually reflect his story as he imagined it. With that in mind, Ewan McGregor claims that the upcoming adaptation of Doctor Sleep will be very faithful to the source…

Have you ever watched your child play a video or iPad game. I find it fascinating how easy it seems to come to them. I used to watch my then 4 year old grandson play “Real Steel” based on the movie of the same name. It was a fighting game and he was obsessed with it.

His robot could be…

The first official photo of the lead heroines in the Terminator reboot introduced Mackenzie Davis as Grace. She is a character described as soldier-assassin from the future.

The man who is now her husband had an unusual part time job. He was a weekend professional wrestler. She said he had a number of different personas that he used (although for the life of me I can’t recall what she said they were).

Excuse me, back then it was “wrassling.” Not to tell my age but I remember watching Bruno Sammartino, Bobo Brazil, Dusty Rhodes, The Nature Boy…

My wife and I love movies. More specifically, we live to quote them. Lucky for us there are always circumstances that just cry for a line or two from one of our favorite movies. As an exercise in trivial nonsense, I am going to make up a scenario and then the movie quote that might follow it. How many will you recognize? We’ll make a game of it…2 points for every correct response. An extra point if you knew who said it. I’ll list the answers at the bottom. Some of these are very easy, some are more obscure. Ok……
