In 2009, Danish filmmaker Janus Metz followed a group of Danish Soldiers on their first mission to the Helmand Province of Afghanistan. Embedded for six months at Forward Operating Base Armadillo, Metz captured some of the most intimate and surreal war footage ever to be shown in a war documentary. How good is it? Well, let’s just say it makes Jarhead look like In the Army Now.

Matthew’s Day Off – Ferris Bueller Themed Honda Commercial
Just yesterday I posted the teaser for this Ferris Bueller inspired Honda commercial, and already the full deal has hit the internet. It’s sad too, because I had such high hopes for this. It’s a commercial, featuring Matthew Broderick as Ferris Bueller; how can a person screw that up? You see, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is one of my favorite 80s movies, and probably one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s been years since I’ve had my Bueller fix, and I expected nothing short of the second coming of Christ from this commercial. Unfortunately, that just wasn’t the case.
The commercial starts off with Bueller calling in sick to work, in typical Bueller fashion, but there’s something wrong. As you watch the commercial unfold, you’ll
#DIRTYLAUNDRY – Thomas Jane Makes a Frank Castle Fan Film
I may be a bit biased, but when I originally watched Thomas Jane as the Punisher, I experienced an undeniably wonderful sensation in my pants region. While it’s fair to say he probably doesn’t have this exact effect on most men, there’s just something about Jane’s portrayal of Frank Castle that gets action movie fans whipped into a frenzy. So when The Punisher reboot never got a second chance, we all slunk back to our dreary, non-exploding everyday lives and quietly mourned a missed opportunity… until this week’s debut of #DirtyLaundry. This ‘fan film’, headed by Jane, poses the question: “What’s the difference between justice and punishment?”

Top Gear USA – First Trailer
As a huge fan of the infamous “car show” Top Gear, I was relieved to find out that Adam Carolla didn’t make it as a host on the show. The guy’s not funny at all, and probably knows nothing about cars. Having said that…
I think the show has a lot of potential, but I do have some major concerns. Watch the trailer, and then let me explain exactly what
Movie Review: Scream 4
Scream 4 took ten years to make and it was well worth the wait. The film brings back all the elements that made the series successful such as mixing horror, suspense and humor all into one. Scream 4 also brings a fresh approach to the series such as adding new cast members, Emma Roberts and Hayden Panettiere, (who were both surprisingly excellent in the roles) and it addressed the new elements of technology. What makes the Scream series so successful and fun is their ability to poke fun at the genre and not take itself too seriously.Take a trip back to Woodsboro with Sidney (Neve Campbell), Dewey (David Arquette) and Gale (Courtney Cox) and of course Ghost Face– you won’t be disappointed.
2012 Super Bowl XLVI Car Commercials
The Super Bowl is the biggest gaming event in the United States and a good number of people that watch the big game day aren’t even in it for the actual game but for the commercials. In 2011, 111 million viewers tuned in to watch the Super Bowl according to Nielson Co. With so many eyes on the screen, companies are willing to spend a ridiculous amount of money for 30 seconds of action.
Below is a collection of car commercials from the 2012 Super Bowl XLVI!
