I think I only know a couple of people who had read the Wanted comic book before seeing the Wanted movie. Twitter is full of the conversations between people saying they just saw the movie and were now going to hunt out the comic book.
Of course come to think of it I don’t recall reading [...]

Tonight we’re moving away from the actor themed nights that we’ve had so far. Did you stick with Escape from LA or did you skip to the end? Mmmmm. There are some films that make their way into the social consciousness, catch phrases become a shared knowledge amongst people, true popular culture. For a long [...]

Welcome to the second night of the Quit Your Day Job Film Festival! How did you go last night? More than enough one liners and testosterone? Well I hope not because tonight we’re taking it up another notch with another favourite actor of mine: Kurt Russell.
This man is awesome.
Team him up with John Carpenter and [...]
