I’m a Marvel girl (though sadly, I’m not Marvel Girl), but I don’t have a lot of experience with Guardians of the Galaxy. I stuck around X-Men and the Avengers and never really ran out of material to read, watch and be entertained by. When the Guardians film was announced a couple of years ago,…
First of all, I just have to say: I don’t give an alien robotic fuck about the Michael Bay Transformers franchise. But hey, did you hear that there’s a new Transformers movie coming out? What a great opportunity to pay homage to the cartoon, movie and toys of the 80s! I’m not even a…
What was going to be a nice column about how much I love the X-Men and how excited I am about the new film, X-Men: Days of Future Past has turned into a long rant about how little respect I have for Channing Tatum. Oh well, whatcha gonna do? The main point is, I made…
I’ll admit, I’m not an avid Spider-man comic book reader. So when I watch the Spider-man movies, I don’t have the book biases that others have. I’m strictly speaking of the movies based on a movie-fan’s knowledge. That being said, I was a little skeptical when they decided to reboot the series so soon after…
The best way to spread Christmas cheer is baking lots and drinking beer. Or at least that’s how I do it, because believe-you-me, you do not want to hear me sing Christmas carols. One of my favorite holiday movies is Elf. Instant classic. Yeah, I went there. It’s heartwarming and adorable with funny moments and…
Editor’s Note: Below is the column as it appeared on HoboTrashcan.com. I don’t know why this movie is so god damned polarizing. But I guess that’s because I’m completely on one side of the argument. I love A Christmas Story. It puts me in the mood for the holidays every year. Not that it takes much for…
John Hughes. Genius voice of a generation. (Not Kanye.) He made two of the most quintessential holiday movies of our annual repertoire. Planes, Trains and Automobiles for Thanksgiving and Home Alone for Christmas. I watch them every year, and chances are, you do too. I’ve already put in Planes, Trains and Automobiles this year. And…
This recipe originally ran on HoboTrashcan.com. Did ya see Thor: The Dark World this weekend? Didja? I figured a good chunk of you would have. Even if you aren’t into The Avengers, Marvel or comic books in general, Chris Hemsworth draws you in. He could be a weapon in world domination if he fell into…
In my attempt to seem as outdated as possible, I’ve dedicated my HoboTrashcan Halloween column this year to a movie that is ten years older than myself… Young Frankenstein. I can’t help it, it doesn’t age. I’m also hoping that Gene Wilder will follow suit and doesn’t age. That’d be great. I know it’s not…
Musical and film. Comedy and horror. Rock and Motown. Good and bad. All the crazy dualities of Little Shop of Horrors, working together to make one of the greatest Halloween cult classics of all time. So let’s add one more to that mix. Port and Brandy. Two crazy adult beverages to make one awesome, blood-red…
