RunPee’s “Anything Extra” Feature – The Details About End Credits Scenes
—
Briefly, extra scenes include: The traditional extra scene that hints at what might be involved in the next movie of a series. Bloopers, interviews, etc. Photos from the movie or real life events. Sound effects outside of the music (it can be REALLY subtle sometimes). On screen text that doesn’t relate to the credits, like…

More Powerful Than You Could Possibly Imagine
Remember in A New Hope when Obi Wan said to Vader, “Strike me down and I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine”? As it turned out, Obi Wan didn’t become all powerful. He didn’t do much more than become the Jedi Whisperer. (Let go, Luke. Trust your feelings.) Now that Luke has faded…

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. Sometimes I want to upgrade a film…

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 Rewatch Review – Jurassic Park III
I finally made the effort to rewatch Jurassic Park III – something always came up to distract me, and I’m easily distracted if I don’t want to see the movie in question. But I’m glad I did it: the movie isn’t so bad once you’re aware of the retched parts. It’s like rewatching Star Wars:…

Tour the Millennium Falcon with Lando Calrissian
I’m really chuffed to show off this little video, a real treat — a tour of the brand new Millennium Falcon from Solo: A Star Wars Story, with that other double-crossing, no-good swindler of a space rogue, Lando Calrissian. Donald Glover (the new Lando, smarmily stealing Solo’s film) is in all his elated glory here. His custom-designed…

Chewbacca Sings Silent Night (and it actually works)
Sometimes I just can’t help myself, and watch all kinds of dorky Star Wars fun from the endless free entertainment provided by the internet. And no, I don’t mean the abysmally received Star Wars Holiday Special. (Although you can find THAT on the internet too, if you have 98 minutes to kill watching something that…

Review: Jurassic Park Ride at Universal Studios
I love dinosaurs. I was a dino geek before dinosaurs were cool, and to make me stand out even further, I was a “just a girl”. Girls who were geeks in the 70s were a rare breed. Fortunately, I was also a Klingon, so efforts to bully me landed on deaf ears. 🙂 [pullquote]Hell, I…

Incredibles 2 & the Success of Animated Movie Sequels
Sequels are big deals for today’s audiences. We’re willing to watch 19 ( soon 20) films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we’ve got DC and their endless versions of Batman, an evolving Star Wars franchise, Star Trek reboots, and sequels to things we never asked for, like Hot Tub Time Machine 2. It’s clear we…

Incredibles 2 Poster Looks Like A Marvel Film
I was looking at the poster for the upcoming Incredibles 2 film, and noticed that it looked awfully familiar. And not just because I saw and enjoyed the first Incredibles film in 2004, but because the poster seemed…exactly like a Marvel film. Specifically, one in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, AKA, the MCU. Here’s the poster…
