A small part of the world cried foul, threats were made from various sources, but here we are with the home release of the movie that presents an insane premise and matches it with the same sense of humor and themes that have made successes out of the filmmaking team that is Seth Rogen and […]
Wow! What can really be said about this title? I have to be careful as I don’t want any terrorists ransacking my place or else it’s on like Rambo: First Blood! So I have to choose my words very carefully as I tip toe around egg shells on the very delicate divide of what has […]
[Note: I had no real desire to dig too far into the controversy surrounding this film, as I have been fascinated, but exhausted with keeping up with what has gone on in this surreal situation leading up to the eventual release of this film. That said, my friend Scott Mendeslon, over at Forbes, has written […]
If the year 2011 taught us nothing but the fact that good things can come from rebooting a beloved franchise, then I’d be alright to call it a day right here and now. Never in my wildest dreams could I have ever conjured up such a crazy notion that the quirky Planet of the Apes franchise could ever be […]

If the year 2011 taught us nothing but the fact that good things can come from rebooting a beloved franchise, then I’d be alright to call it a day right then and there.

There is going to be a lot of ‘Apes’ talk this week. We at Why So Blu were big fans of the 2011 re-imagining of the Planet of the Apes franchise, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and with Dawn of the Planet of the Apes set to be released on July 11th, we are very much excited for […]
It was a big year, but somehow I managed to put together a list of my favorite films of 2013. I have to say that this was once again not the easiest list to put together. Theatrically, I have seen 150+ films this year, so there were a lot of films to consider and figure […]
So another year has come and gone way too quickly, bringing with it a long list of great movies as well as some I wish I could get the hours of my life back. So with this being said, if you are anything like me, then you have a hard time choosing which movie to […]
