Video: M. Night Shyamalan Horror & Thrillers RANKED | WORST TO BEST
When M. Night Shyamalan gets it right he makes something iconic. But when he gets it wrong, wow is it a stinker. Emma really knows her M. Night Shyamalan. This is a great video if you want to get down to the nitty-gritty of which ones are good and which ones are great. Emma and…

Christmas Classic First Watch Review – Christmas In Connecticut (1945)
I’ll admit that this was a total surprise. As is rapidly becoming traditional, here in RunPee Towers, this time of year means that there are Christmas films to be watched. We do try and get other themes going for other holidays but, as a lot of them are unheard of outside of the USA, I…

Christmas Classic First Watch Review – White Christmas (1954)
I’ve never been one to make any undue effort and, in a similar vein, I don’t like to waste any effort accidentally made. When I had my moment of confusion over Holiday Inn and White Christmas the obvious thing, to me, was to save the notes I’d made and use them in another review. And…

Christmas Classic First Watch Review – Holiday Inn (1942)
I’ll admit to being a bit confused by Holiday Inn. I intended to see the film with the song White Christmas in it and, obviously went for the one called White Christmas. Now I knew that Bing Crosby sang White Christmas but I was also fairly confident that Fred Astaire was in it. Oh…I love…

Is there anything extra during the end credits of Nightmare Alley?
—
There are extras during the end credits of Nightmare Alley. During the first 30 seconds, the camera zooms in on the jar with the baby in it. (from the oddities show) After that, it is safe to leave the theater. The credits run for approximately 9 minutes. [/wbcr_text_snippet] Read the RunPee movie review for Nightmare Alley by Christene…

Movie Review – Nightmare Alley
—
Nightmare Alley was probably one of the most surprising movies I’ve seen this year. Based on the trailers I had been seeing it looked decent enough — and let’s face it, anything with Bradley Cooper is worth seeing. I want to break the review down into three sections. Let’s start with the first 40ish minutes.…

Is there anything extra during the end credits of Spider-Man: No Way Home?
There are extras during the end credits of Spider-Man: No Way Home. There are two extra scenes. The first begins about 2 1/2 minutes into the credits and lasts about 1 1/2 minutes. There’s a 7-minute wait until the second extra scene comes after the end credits. It’s honestly not an extra scene but more of…

Movie Review – Spider-Man: No Way Home
—
When I read about the multiverse plot for Spider-Man: No Way Home I thought it would either be awesome, or horrible. I was hugely relieved to see that they landed closer to the side of awesome. The writers—Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers—both wrote the previous two Spider-Man movies together, so fortunately No Way Home maintains the…

Christmas Classic Rewatch Review – Scrooge (1951)
Elsewhere I wrote about how and why A Christmas Carol was written and how it’s been adapted many times on screens both large and small. It’s the most often adapted of all of Dickens’ works, with over thirty film outings. Oliver Twist comes second with a mere eighteen. It’s been faithfully followed from the original,…
