The story of Louis Zamperini – from kid on the wrong path to Olympic athlete to surviving forty-seven days adrift in the Pacific Ocean to Japanese POW (and recipient of far worse than merely tortuous treatment – is one so improbable that it comfortably fits every possible definition of both heroism and ‘you can’t make […]

Unbroken: Behind the Scenes with Angelina Jolie and Louis Zamperini!
Universal’s Unbroken, the film of Louis Zamperini’s story – from just another kid to Olympic athlete; to survivor of a WWII plane crash in the ocean to a survivor of captivity and a Japanese Prisoner of War camp – has taken a long time to get to us. Directed by Angelina Jolie, Unbroken is a […]
Full Length Trailer: Jurassic World: Evacuate The Park!
Jurassic World is open and looks like a pretty cool place to visit until a rather smug scientist states ‘We’ve just created our first genetically modified hybrid.’ When Chris Pratt’s character responds, ‘You just went and made a new dinosaur?

It’s a pretty lame effort at bringing classic (which is to say clichéd) tropes to an adolescent-friendly […]
