Thundercats THE MOVIE!?
It's a fan-made trailer, of course.
I wonder if they'll ever get around to making a live action version of this much beloved '80s franchise.

MOVIE REVIEW: Sherlock Holmes
MOVIE REVIEW: Sherlock Holmes
Written by Geoffrey Borgonia
Before Gil Grissom and his CSI compatriots (David Carusso notwithstanding) held the top spot as the paragons of pop culture crime solving with their hi-tech equipment and pseudo-scientific methods, there was Sherlock Holmes.
Although the first literary detective as we know it is C. Auguste Dupin (of Edgar Allan Poe’s “Murders in the Rue Morgue”) , the most famous is indubitably Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s creation Sherlock Holmes.
First appearing in the year 1887 (“A Study in Scarlet”), 4 novels and 55 stories later, Holmes keen intellect, attention to minutiae, and peerless deductive ability became the epitome of what the protagonist in detective fiction should be capable of and which all others would be judged. So, too, would be his faithful companion, Dr. John Watson would be the template of the “loyal but capable in his own way” sidekick who serves as the reader’s point of view as much of the story is narrated through his eyes.
Naturally, such a popular character would find itself adapted to other mediums and in the last century, Holmes and Watson have appeared in stage plays, radio dramas, television shows, and movies. The Guinness book of world records places Holmes as the ‘most portrayed character on film” with over 200 movies and 70 plus actors portraying the world’s greatest detective.
This December 2009, Warner Bros. released the most recent helmed by Guy Ritchie (Snatch) and stars Robert Downey Jr. as the famous “consulting detective” Sherlock Holmes and Jude Law as the intrepid Dr. Watson with Rachel Mcadams as Irene Adler and Mark Strong as the film’s villain Lord Blackwood.

MOVIE REVIEW: Avatar
MOVIE REVIEW: Avatar
Written by Geoffrey Borgonia
After over 10 years riding on the accolades of ‘Titanic’, Director James Cameron returns to the big screen with the movie ‘Avatar’. A lot is expected from the celebrated filmmaker and the hype surrounding this movie reflects that. Ticket sales from its opening to this date clearly presents a winner outpacing even the most recent mega-blockbuster “The Dark Knight” and the film has received much critical acclaim from industry experts comparing it to ‘Lord of the Rings’ as the most ground-breaking film of the decade.
But is Avatar a true work of art? Or is it hiding all it’s flaws under expensive cosmetics?
