In The Big Short, 2008 Economic Crisis Had Winners Who Didn’t Break the Law
The 2008 economic crisis is long behind us. So why not go back and take a look at a number of people who saw it coming and made loads of money as a result? How about we stick them in the cell with Bernie Madoff instead and have them rig the market to reimburse the losses for the rest of us. Nah, that’s not the spirit of The Big Short, and you’ll have no problem juxtaposing what could be considered a bunch of misery merchants for farsighted heroes in this revealing Adam McKay film.

Frozen (2010) Review
Title: FrozenMPAA Rating: RDirector: Adam GreenStarring: Emma Bell, Shawn Ashmore, Kevin ZegersRuntime: 1 hour 33 minutes What It Is? Joe and Dan (Ashmore and Zegers) have been the best of friends since kindergarten. One thing they’ve always shared is going skiing on Mount Holliston. However, this trip which the two BFF’s take in tandem is a little different. You see Dan has brought his girlfriend Parker (Emma Bell) along. This does not sit well with Joe who has seen Parker inject herself into every other facet of Dan’s life. Joe is resentful of this and persists on ribbing Parker throughout their arrival at Mount Holliston. That is until she convinces the lift attendant Jason (Ed Ackerman) to give them a lift ticket for her and her “friends.” Jason is bribed a hundred dollars and obliges thinking the friends are female. As the night is closing the trio decide one last run is in order they convince Jason to give them the last pass. Another attendant warns Jason that the boss is thinking of working him on a day he’s previously requested off for months. Jason tells the attendant that there are still three out there. Three other skiers appear from the lower mountain confusing the new attendant. This causes him to shut down the cable car lift system…with our trio still on them and hanging high above the ground. The three don’t initially panic thinking it could be a glitch or something. After some time however they quickly realize they’re stuck up there with only two choices find a way down, or freeze to death.

'Fantastic Four' - Marvel's Biggest Missed Opportunity
Marvel Comics was built on the foundation of the Fantastic Four. It was pointed out that this franchise still has the potential to be successful by this review for 2005’s Fantastic Four, and it sums up the way a lot of people felt about the film. The Fantastic Four was the first “family” of superheroes from Marvel, and still has a loyal following to this day. The movie, put out before we had any concept of a modern Iron Man or Avengers, could have been a very big deal. Instead, it was a critical flop and one many audience members have since forgotten about.

Filmmaker Finds New York Vacation Getaway of a Bygone Era
Every summer, as the sizzle perspires from the cement, urban thoughts of running streams, flowing grass and cool mountain breezes inherently materialize around every New Yorker and only subside with the arrival of fall. But few would consider the very nearby setting today that many Italian families once made an affordable respite and desired vacation getaway. A sentiment reflecting the desolation this upstate destination of a bygone era now suffers. Nonetheless, a holdout remains and is the subject of The Last Resort.

Amazing Book-to-Movie Adaptations
Have you ever met a devoted bookworm, and have you ever asked them how they feel about the movie adaptations of their favorite book? So often, they respond with the same line: "The book was MUCH better than the film." Said with an air that implies that the whole idea of a filmmaker adapting the written world to the silver screen is doomed to fail. And, indeed, many film adaptations of books do fail. They don't recapture the magic of the original. They forget important details.
