RYAN: This is the latest from writer/director Quentin Tarantino and it’s so consistent with his brand of film making, from the music, to the pacing, style, editing, zooms and then the bloodshed. ERIN: Yeah the classic Tarantino. RYAN: And I loved every minute of it. ERIN: I did too. This is the first of ..
RYAN: I’m almost too giddy to even talk about Les Misérables. Most anticipated movie of the year is an understatement. CAROLINE: I have been absolutely dying to see this too. As collective musical theater geeks, there couldn’t be a movie more tailor made for us, LBH. RYAN: We both loved the show on Broadway, and ..
RYAN: We just saw part one in the new Hobbit trilogy from director Peter Jackson and I’m so glad to have you joining me in reviewing this, Brad, since you love The Lord of the Rings as much as I love Oz and Harry Potter. BRAD: That is very true. I’m a complete Tolkien geek. ..

RYAN: Oz has never been hotter! Wicked continues to sell out on Broadway, Disney just released, at Comic Con, their first trailer for the new Oz prequel. The animated, 3D musical Dorothy of Oz is set for next year; there was the successful Dorothy and the Witches of Oz earlier this year and also in ..
HORROR
RYAN: This is one crazy freak-fest of a movie! CAROLINE: Well it’s supposed to be a scary movie. So it delivered? RYAN: Well yes it delivered something alright. But since we don’t do spoilers as a rule, I don’t want to say too much about this move. CAROLINE: How is it though? Did it scare ..
OZ
RYAN: Join me this Friday night at the 7pm showing of Dorothy and the Witches of Oz in Milwaukee, WI at AMC Mayfair Mall 18 as I host a special Q&A session with the writer/director and the cast of this film. Hope to see you there! CAROLINE: Just when I thought you wouldn’t make it ..
OZ
RYAN: We’ve never before reviewed a short film on its own and I don’t think we’ll make a habit of it; however, I’ve just come across a newly completed short I fell madly in love with and just have to share it with everyone. CAROLINE: What’s gotten you all worked up? RYAN: It’s a film ..
FAMILY
RYAN: We were lucky enough to attend the NYC premiere of “Inkheart,” a new fantasy/adventure movie starring Brendan Fraser and Eliza Hope Bennett, one of the kids from “Nanny McPhee.” CAROLINE: It’s a PG-rated family film, which would almost guarantee that I wouldn’t like it; but I actually enjoyed this. The premise is very clever ..
COMEDY
RYAN: One of my most anticipated movies of the year, “Australia,” which re-teams Nicole Kidman with director Baz Luhrmann, is quite a masterpiece. CAROLINE: I’m not sure that’s the word I would use. RYAN: Didn’t you think it was an epic, gorgeous, sweeping tale? CAROLINE: Sure, but masterpiece implies that it’s his best movie ever ..
ACTION
RYAN: OMG “The Forbidden Kingdom” is one of the best movies ever! CAROLINE: Sizneriously? RYAN: Yes. It’s basically a retelling of “The Wizard of Oz” starring the kid who played Jack’s son on “Will & Grace.” And he’s looking a little Shia LeBeouf-ish these days. CAROLINE: Well, no wonder you liked it so much given ..
SCI FI / FANTASY
RYAN: “Stardust” is easily one of my favorite films of all time. CAROLINE: This is the best fantasy/fairy tale movie I’ve seen since “The Princess Bride.” And that’s saying something because “The Princess Bride” is one of my all-time faves. I’m just worried that not enough people know about “Stardust” – the world must know ..
