  Rock Center with Brian Williams Recap: 911 Operator on Deanna Cook Tragedy

  Rock Center with Brian Williams starts with a report on the circumstances and controversy surrounding the death of 32-year old Deanna Cook. To the Dallas police, this is just another statistic of domestic violence but to Deanna’s family and all the people who hav heard her 911 call, this is a case of wrongful death resulting to the police’s failure to immediately respond: from 911 operator Tonyita Hopkins, to the dispatch up to the officers who responded after an hour. Deanna’s mother and sisters reveal how the police refused to provide the audio recording of the victim’s 911 call while…

  Shark Tank Season Finale Recap: Triumphant Military Women, 11 Year-old & Beagle

  Shark Tank’s two-episode finale has Lori Greiner and Barbara Corcoran appearing, albeit separately. Nevertheless, the entrepreneurs presenting their business plans are equally interesting, especially when two military women and an 11-year old kid with his beagle close their deals to expand their budding operations. The first hour features two successful transactions led by Robert Gifford, a self-proclaimed geek who manufactures multi-purpose furniture. Geek Chic is designed to meet every geek’s need to marry hobbies and work with just one piece of furniture.

Wreck-It Ralph (2012) Review: The Good and the Bad

I’m sure I wasn’t the only one squealing when the trailer of Wreck-It Ralph first came out late last year/early this year. Though the first few trailers didn’t blatantly give away what the movie was about, the fact that it showed a dynamic video-game like quality and styel of animation was enough to pique a collective gamer interest. This hype developed so much that when the actual content was revealed—which was basically a plot that revolved around a world beyond consoles, arcades, and TV screens—everyone was already an avid follower of the movie months before its actual release date. The marketing was…

Zombies and Romance: Warm Bodies Trailer Release

Who says the undead can’t fall in love? Sure, their hearts may have stopped beating and there’s nothing but dead space in their lungs (pun intended) but all those who have loved can attest that feelings such as love go beyond what is fathomable. Such is the premise of the upcoming film, Warm Bodies. Directed by Jonathan Levine (known for 50/50), it is based on the best selling novel by Isaac Marion of the same name. It revolves around “R”, living his daily undead life with little memory of who he was or what happened to the world. R isn’t…

The Second Official Trailer Reveals Interesting Key Points for the Storyline Heading to Despicable Me 2 10/31/12

When the world first experienced the cute and lovable yellow minions on the big screen back in 2010, they were quickly accepted with open arms because of their non-verbal style of comedy that just reached out to viewers globally (aside from being irresistibly cute). When word got out that “Despicable Me 2″ was in the works for their encore performance, many excited fans couldn’t wait to see their lovable yellow characters. Early this year, the teaser trailer for “Despicable Me 2″ pegged four (4) minions doing their mumbled rendition of the Beach Boys classic, “Barbara Ann” and that video went…

The Red Band Trailer for the Evil Dead Remake Has Been Officially Released! Not For The Faint of Heart! 10/24/12

Fair warning! Please do not continue reading if you have a weak stomach for absolute gore in its rawest form as this article will discuss how the red band trailer for the Evil Dead Remake will bring back the forgotten evil of long ago! Here we go… When I first watched the bootleg release of this trailer last week, I was already left shaken and scarred as to how far Director Fede Alvarez tried re-narrating the 1981 version of Sam Raimi’s horror baby by being more graphic with the gruesome “cut” scenes (if you know what I mean). I tried…

A Truckload of Goodies for Iron Man 3: Official Pictures, the Full-Length Trailer, and Unofficial News 10/23/12

With just months to go heading into its cinematic release on May 3rd of next year, “Iron Man 3″ has been making a lot of noise shortly after the major success of “The Avengers”. Of course, this movie leads the pack of other superhero stories for the future since this is phase 2 of Marvel’s culmination of all independent superhero motion pictures which is “The Avengers 2″ (temporarily since there hasn’t been any official announcement for its title). For the past few days now, Marvel has been keeping its fans on alert with the recent viral on-set pictures and more…

Argo Review: The Resurrection of Affleck’s Career?

Argo, its one of those seasonal ‘Oscar-worthy’ movies that comes out around the end of the year, its chock-full of political discord, overbearing drama, and all the “based off of a true story-ness” you can handle. And the timing couldn’t have been more perfect what with Iran appearing in the news and now here’s a movie about an Iranian hostage crisis that went down in the late 70’s! There’s just one major difference between Argo and the plethora of Oscar-level political films I’ve viewed. You’ll actually have a great time watching this. Ben Affleck’s career has taken a sensational turn…

The 15-Second Teaser Trailer for Iron Man 3 is on its Facebook Fan Page 10/21/12!

I literally jumped off my seat when I heard the news that Tony Stark’s arc reactor on the “Iron Man 3″ Facebook Fan Page reached its maximum charge of 100 percent which meant only one thing: THE TEASER TRAILER HAS FINALLY SURFACED! As promised, Nerdles was in on it as the news broke and here it is for all you Iron Man fans out there! Sadly, this video clip only previewed a mere 15 seconds of what we could be expecting from the third installment, but I was more than grateful for having this sneak peek of the finished product…
