“The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor” Synopsis

Categories: News Chat | By John |

I’m one of those people who actually didn’t mind “The Mummy” movies. No, they weren’t anywhere near Indiana Jones quality, but for fun treasure and adventure movies I thought they held themselves alright.

In Bruges Trailer

Categories: News Chat | By Doug |

Holy crow kids! This trailer looks completely bad ass, Colin Farrell looks like he has found a role that he was born to play. With Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes rounding out the cast, I think it is safe to say that we have a holy trinity of greatness. In Bruges will [...]
