Movie Rewatch Review of X-Files – I Want To Believe
The X-Files now has nine television seasons, two movies, and two short-term TV revivals under their belt. This no-spoiler rewatch is for the second feature film, I Want To Believe, taking place years (both in-universe and out) after the final run of original TV episodes, and before both revivals were even a concept. (Is this…

Movie Theater Review – AMC Fashion Valley in San Diego
I love AMC theaters, although I’ll grant you some are much better than others. I will go on a limb and say this: almost any AMC is a better movie experience than non-AMC blockbuster cinemas within their price bracket. [pullquote]In San Diego, the AMC Fashion Valley isn’t the best AMC in town (that award goes…

Hip Indie Theater Review in Tijuana, Mexico – Cine Tonala
I sit here with delightful empanada pastries, and a nice menu in this three level establishment in downtown’s Cine Tonala — right on the ‘infamous’ Av. Revolucion in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. It’s a sneeze to walk across the main San Diego border, then a longish walk, cheap van-taxi, or short UBER ride from there,…

Movie Review – The House With A Clock In Its Walls

I wish this film was better. It started out lively, with some nice funky humor for a while. There were good production values throughout. Unfortunately, the story went downhill fast at the middle mark, and became a dreadful muddle by the end. I watched the children in the theater to make sure it wasn’t just…

1st Captain Marvel Trailer Finally Drops – Comments and Speculation
We’ve just seen the first trailer for Captain Marvel, in the next phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe…and it honestly doesn’t show much. It lasts a little less than two minutes. It shows Brie Larson’s character (Carol Danvers, AKA Captain Marvel) falling to the Earth, and then a variety of nano-scenes flash by. We see some…

Movies Mentioning Pee – fun film clips
RunPee is about Pee. Okay…um: I should rephrase that. We’re about movies. But pee was the inspiration, and as Alfred Hitchcock famously said, “The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.” This isn’t really the case in modern times, most especially with blockbusters. We at RunPee tend…

Fun Details You Didn’t Notice from the Halloween Trailer
The new Halloween movie returns to its roots. Yeah! It cleans up the timeline — ignoring the iffy sequels and remakes. Almost entirely. Right on! It’s full of visual metaphors and clues reminding you of the original movie, and promising what may come. Will we see hints of chilling thrills, and a great concluding narrative…

Free In Flight Movies – they rock, but are harder to find
I used to love Delta Airlines, and willingly paid more for their expensive tickets. Why? They had movies, over a hundred film options (some barely out of the cinemas, plus new popular TV show episodes), built into the backs of their comfy, relatively wide seats. For free. You brought or bought headphones, plugged them in,…
