29. March 2009

Just released today, Monsters vs. Aliens is a computer-animated 3-D feature film from DreamWorks Animation and Paramount Pictures. It is the first computer animated movie to be directly produced in a stereoscopic 3-D format (i.e. instead of converting the film into 3-D after completion). So what’s it all about?

Terius Youngdell Nash, more popularly known as “The-Dream”, released his second album – Love vs Money – on March 10 of this year. Last night, I sat down to listen to The-Dream’s sophomore effort, and I must say that it falls short lyrically of his talent and reputation. Don’t get it twisted, there are some surefire [...]

The Friday The 13th movie series with the hockey-mask wearing JASON is back! As I expected though, this latest entry is the kind of cookie-cutter horror flick that doesn’t really offer much, but the little it does deliver holds together well enough to actually entertain.
