Rolling Over In My Grave – Bad Movies
This summer has been one wild ride when it comes to movie watching. With a bunch of new and familiar faces in the action/superhero mix, a parade of sequels galore and a whole bunch here-today, gone-tomorrow comedies, we’ve truly been all over the place. Sadly, however, the one thing I’m noticing with a great deal [...]

Time flies and as such, another year comes to a close. But I’m glad it does because when it came to movies, 2010 was anything but a watershed year.
