Boss Of The Toss Featured Reviews Film Threat

Invented in the 18th century as “parlor quoits,” cornhole is basically the game of horseshoes but played indoors with beanbags thrown into a hole in a raised board. It originally used corn kernel-filled bags, hence the name. You have to admire the game for not flinching when the term was appropriated. It soldiered on regardless, despite sounding like it should be provisioned by sex shops. Boss of the Toss opens with our hero, Coolbreeze (Jon Heus), as he loses a tournament to the odious Destroyer, played with nicely douchey energy by sports announcer Jazz Securo....

Polonia Featured Reviews Film Threat

In August of 1980, the Polish State had recognized the independent Polish Trade Union.

Two of those leaders were a mineworker and Solidarity’s press spokesman, Zdzislaw Strzelec.

Potter S Field Reviews Uncategorized Film Threat

Masked as a dark comedy with a few gruesome images, Potter’s Field winds up being more than just an uncomfortable laugh here and there; it has heart, so much so that it had to overcompensate in the other direction to hide it all. Daryl wants to do right by his brother, but he’s also burdened by his own resentment towards him. The death doesn’t sink in right away, and Daryl treats it as one more hassle his brother has thrown in his way....

Stargazer Featured Reviews Film Threat

In 1925, astronomer/astrophysicist Cecilia Payne (Kate Ginna) made a groundbreaking discovery.

Her discovery was dismissed as factually incorrect, only for Harlow Shapley (Matt Bogart), the Director of the Harvard College Observatory Cecilia was attending, to steal her work and claim it as his own....

The Idea Of You Featured Reviews Film Threat

That would be fine, especially considering the dearth of good, old-fashioned rom-coms these days. But perhaps there’s a reason why this particular genre has wilted, hanging on by a thread. Filmgoers have grown way too cynical, self-aware, and ideology-driven to be able to stomach the sugary sentiments of a straightforward “feel-good flick.” And while Showalter’s attempt to resurrect said genre is admirable, it’s just too slight and, well, dull to provoke any paradigm shift....

The Star Wars Report To The Winner Go The Spoilers Film Threat

Having said that, there are always those jackasses who simply have to be the first to know all the secrets about an upcoming movie or TV project (nowadays, we call these people “internet users”). The Star Wars franchise has never been any stranger to this phenomenon. Indeed, nosy fans poking around for information about “Empire” led to Lucas hiding the fact that Vader was Luke’s father from all but five other people (Dave Prowse not being one of them, hilariously enough) and creating mock crew gear for a movie called “Blue Harvest” to keep people from snooping around “Jedi’s” set....
