The 5 Most Underrated Harry Potter Characters
Even if you've never read the books or seen the movies, the names Harry, Ron, and Hermione are undoubtedly and irrevocably linked with Rowling's marvelous realm of magic and mischief. This is for good reason: the "Golden Trio," as they are affectionately labelled by Potter fans, represent all that we want to be. Smart, courageous, self-sacrificing, famous, admired by their society and peers. Yet there are a plethora of characters, just as expertly crafted by the Queen JK Rowling herself, that often fly under the radar, unseen in the background. I see it as my duty to move five of these wonderful personas to the fore—enjoy.

We are now in an age where enough time has passed where a lot of the classic films we held dear to our hearts that came out back in the 90s are now being rebooted/remade as the film technology we now have allows us to take these films and give them a huge upgrade.

How To Build a Made-for-TV Christmas Love Movie
It's November. Time for people who are annoyingly into Christmas to never shut up about all things Christmas. If you, your aunt, or your grandma have a cable subscription this also means an onslaught of hastily made Christmas Love Movies. Especially on a certain channel that starts with an H and ends with an Allmark. If you watch enough of them, you'll notice that these "films" follow a specific formula that I'm convinced anyone could follow and create a story consistent with the canon.

Review: Jim and Andy the Great Beyond
Man on the Moon was one of my favorite movies of 1999. I had no idea what went into making the movie at the time I saw it in 1999. Had I been more aware of the tabloid crazy story that was going on behind the scenes I likely would have loved the movie even more. Jim Carrey has now detailed the making of Man on the Moon in a new Netflix documentary that debuts November 17th and it is a remarkable and fascinating insight into the mind of an artist.
