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…

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…

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!

Halloween 2nd Trailer Released, Curtis to Whip Some Psycho Butt!
Halloween is coming — in more ways than one. We at RunPee couldn’t be more excited for Jamie Lee Curtis, after all this time (since 1978!), to scare HER psycho boogeyman Mike Meyers, and whup his deranged butt for once and for all. Some people just shouldn’t be allowed to go to prison, allowing for…

60 Movies Standing Up To The Test Of Time
Here’s list of my favorite films, all of which are somewhere in the A range, or a high B. I didn’t actually include everything I’ve ever given an A to on RunPee, because they were often graded according to the target audience, and aren’t actually my personal faves.

All Predator Movies, Rated
There’s a glut of Predator movies in the franchise now, starting with the classic Predator of 1987 with Arnold Schwarzenegger, through ’til just this week, with The Predator. Since almost each film has basically the same name (except Requiem), it can be confusing to recall which was released when, with what storyline. Also, each storyline has…

Movie Review – The Predator
This was the best Predator movie besides the very first with Arnold in 1987. The Predator did a great job revitalizing the franchise in a way that the subsequent ones (from the middling Predator 2 sequel through the two AvP disasters) didn’t. [pullquote]If you loved the classic Predator original, you’ll have a good time with…

Concert Review – The Movie Music of John Williams
I’m not a huge fan of live music, but I AM a movie lover. The best, most iconic movies are usually supported by an amazing soundtrack. Think of some of the top films of our time…now imagine them without a stirring score. Imagine the 1977 Star Wars without The Imperial March, or Luke Skywalker’s Theme. …

Movie Review – Doctor Strange
Weird, weird, weird. Yes, in a film pointedly titled Strange, this is very bizarre stuff. I haven’t seen the character in comic book media, but I imagine it took until our current technology to make all this mental scat look so good, so pretty, on film. Folding cities, broken mirror landscapes, characters running up and…
