A Lonely Island Feature with Kendrick Lamar at Halftime Could Unite Us All
I don’t really know much music by Kendrick Lamar. I know he’s considered one of the best rappers alive—hell, he even won a Pulitzer Prize for Music. There’s no real reason I haven’t listened to more of his music. There’s just a lot of music out there. That said, I do love his song “HUMBLE.”—especially…

The year 2000 brought us Road Trip and Scary Movie, and then, right before the end of the year, we got Dude, Where’s…
The Art of the Awkward Sprint: Revisiting Josh Hartnett’s Run in The Faculty
Last night, my girlfriend and I sat down to watch a horror movie. I’m always torn between wanting to show her a classic that I have seen that I feel she needs to or watching a newer one than neither of us either of us have seen. After watching some trailers for movies, like the…
How 30 Rock Ruined Juror #2 for Me
I just started watching Juror #2. The Clint Eastwood-directed drama is now streaming on MAX and follows a juror in a trial who begins to second-guess a recent night of his. The film stars Nicholas Hoult, Toni Collette, J.K. Simmons, Chris Messina, Zoey Deutch, Cedric Yarbrough, and Kiefer Sutherland. It’s really cool to see Cedric…
Kyle Gallner: A Scream King for a New Generation
Photo credit: Buddy Corona I have been a fan of Kyle Gallner forever. His acting career actually goes way back. I recently watched Veronica Mars for the first time, and he has a supporting role in that for a season or two. Of course, he winds up playing a psycho. He actually had a small…
