Movie reviews don’t write themselves…
I’m fairly confident there is nobody out there with the slightest interest about how I write these reviews, but I’m going to prattle on about it regardless… Thanks to Plague 2.0 and all our cinemas being closed, I’ve been tending to review pre-release, independent films.

How movies get C Grades at RunPee
To start with: a C grade isn’t considered a bad movie. It’s just not a good one. It’s average. It can be mediocre, vanilla, fluffy, lightweight, ponderous — or most condemning of all: boring. But in all, these are watchable films. And since every movie is somebody’s favorite, we try to look for the positive…

Our farewell message to RunPee fans on Facebook
RunPee will survive covid just fine. We’ll be back to work adding Peetimes as soon as theaters are open and new movies are released. However, our relationship with Facebook is over. This is a sad message to deliver but we are in the process of phasing out our RunPee account with Facebook in response…
