G.I. JOE: Rise of Cobra REVIEW
WARNING: This review contains SPOILERS.
Before this film was released, we all scoffed at the idea of a GI Joe film. Then the first trailer came out and we had pretty much written it off already, eyes rolling, groaning loudly. I’ll admit that I myself had the absolute lowest expectations for this film. Although Paramount decided [...]

Green Lantern Cast! Ryan Reynolds is Hal Jordan!
The whirlwind of casting rumors can finally be put to rest as we now have our Green Lantern – Ryan Reynolds.
The news of this casting comes quickly since this morning’s rumors that the role of Hal Jordan had been narrowed down to three actors: Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds and JustinTimberlake. Yeah, Justin Timberlake. This is all even after countless reports of auditions and meetings and apparent near-signs from a dozen other actors including Ryan Gosling, Jack Black, Emile Hirsch, Jared Leto and a slew of other young up and comers.

This Film is Rated ‘S’ for Stupid
Realize it kids, we’re watching the rising sun at the dawn of the dumb.
As a passionate filmophile I’m really terrified right now. I may be young, but I’ve seen a lot of movies during my life and the last couple years have been as disappointing as they have been profound. Profound in the sense that, holy shit, we are being subjected to utter stupidity.
This Editor’s Stance on Twilight
If you’re a regular reader of GKS and/or other film-blogs, you may have noticed that Twilight is absent from any and all news reports here. No reviews, no trailers, no rumors, no posters, no nothing. Granted, 75% of film-blogs are taking the piss out of the film series based on the ridiculously-well selling books, there is a reason for the lack of coverage. It’s not just pure laziness.
Watchmen DVD & Blu-Ray Details
The wait is almost over for Zach Snyder’s incredible film adaptation of Watchmen to hit DVD and Blu-Ray. The film will be released to retailers this July 21st and this one is a must-own for fans, Blu-Ray-philes and Watchmen fiends alike. As with most comic-book-super-fan-summer films, this movie will no doubt see an endless amount of releases and re-releases each with the most superficial of differences. But to us mega-fans, does it really even matter.
