With a steady decline of success worse than the stock market, M. Night Shyamalan’s films of late have been more and more abysmal with each release. First it was the questionable to some The Village, then we had Lady In the Water followed by The Happening and most recently the failed The Last Airbender. So what’s next for M. Night you ask?

On a surface level, I have a problem with the concept of Dinner for Schmucks. Conceptually, the movie is about preying on social outcasts and incompetence, and in the real world, I have little tolerance for that.

I’ve been considering Woody Allen’s Play it Again, Sam quite a bit since viewing it the other day. I really like the contrast between Allen’s film critic character, and the fictional Bogart he receives life advice from. It seems to me that this is something many of us do. We pick up pearls of wisdom from movies and other stories that we can apply to our own lives.

In the desert there are many natural dangers and small western towns full of vigilantes, as well as dirt, sand, and scorching sun in every direction. There is also Rango. Rango features the poor and sadly unaware lizard, voiced by Johnny Depp, as he makes his way through the desert and into distant saloons populated by badgers.

There have been a couple of artists I’ve had in mind since the inception of the Artist of the Month program here at Widescreen Warrior. Most of them are people who work behind the camera, with a body of work too valuable to ignore. Yet, many of them have careers that I’ve only had a passing familiarity with. At the top of that list is Woody Allen.

We’ve never been much of the Twilight kind around here, and from the response we get from our regular readers, neither are most of you. A few of you might be interested in the latest chapter, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, which is the big Fourth of July release this week, but for the most part, our regular readers are steering away from the film.

Closing Tabs started as a weekly look at news we didn’t cover on the site throughout the week. As the site has grown, however, we’ve moved away from reporting most news (you can catch most of it regurgitated on other sites anyway) in favor of more original opinions and editorials.

Do you remember what it was like to be a kid? Have your first crush? Not understand the minds of members of the opposite sex? Yep, we all do when we really think about it. Yet Rob Reiner feels the need to take us back in time to the glory days of our country and make us watch 21st century kids act like golly-gee-darn-shucks bashful kids of a time gone by in his new film Flipped.

If you’re in the mood for a “good” romantic comedy then the new film Going the Distance may, might, maybe exactly what you’re looking for. The trailers sets of the story to be a sudden blissful relationship between two characters Erin and Garrett played by Drew Barrymore and Justin Long, respectively.
