Happy 90210 Day!

September 2, 2010 | Justin Moody | TV Features

Happy 90210 (9/02/10) Day!  In honor of this once in a lifetime occurrence, it’s the perfect time to look back on one of the most influential shows of that wonderful decade of the 90s.  Back then many of us who were going through adolescence couldn’t help but become addicted to the Beverly Hills, 90210 gang and marvel at how their lives resembled ours, if only we had a lot more money, were having much more sex, doing many more drugs, and were much, much, much more attractive.  Other than that, it was like looking in a mirror.  20 years after we were first fell in love with Brandon, Brenda, Dylan, Kelly, Steve, Donna, David, and Andrea (well, no one really cared about Andrea), here’s a look back at some of the shows most memorable moments.

September 2, 2010 | Justin Moody | Movie Features

Welcome back to a relatively low-key edition of Trailer Tracker here at Player Affinity where we act as your private investigator, slinking through the shadows of the Internet searching for the newest trailers. First on a quadruple shot of indie trailers is the directorial debut from Phillip Seymore Hoffman, Jack Goes Boating, followed by British director Stephen Fears’ latest, Tamara Drewe, starring rising star Gemma Arterton. Rounding off the docket is the sex-and-relationship Sundance release The Freebie and finally the trailer for wrestler John Cena’s big “acting” debut, Legendary.

Mad Men – Waldorf Stories

September 1, 2010 | Justin Moody | TV Reviews

Last week, I rejoiced at the fact that Don Draper seemingly had his work mojo back.  That despite his personal struggles, he was still able to pull it together enough to maintain his façade for the sake of the business.  That when push came to shove, he could still bring out the Don Draper of old and impress a potential client.  I thought perhaps this was a sign that he had turned a corner.  That success in the office would lead to success in life.

PAM’s Top 10 Movies for Fall 2010

September 1, 2010 | Justin Moody | Movie Features

Prepare to have your mind blown. All seven writers on the PAM staff wrote down our top 10 most anticipated movies of the fall season (through the weekend of Nov. 12) and then we combined them into one list. This might sound very easy to you, but you didn’t compile it. Truth was, not only were no two lists the same, but no one film made every single one of our lists. So, to compliment our combined top 10, we’ve each included a Critic’s Pick of a film high on our lists (or that just missed the group cut) and previewed it for you.

Soldier Zero – Trailer

September 1, 2010 | Justin Moody | Comic News

Some of you are scratching your head wondering how in the world a comic book can have a trailer? Well it’s actually nothing new and you can probably blame Mark Millar and Marvel Comics for the whole thing. Sure it’s a silly idea, but they are effective in communicating information about the product that you may have missed in our preview of the first issue or the several announcements about Stan Lee’s collaboration with Boom! Studios. One thing is for sure, the more they talk about this book the more I want to read it. Not just because it’s from the mind of Stan Lee. In fact it’s mostly because Paul Cornell is writing it and he’s increasingly become the writer to watch in comics. So sit back and enjoy 57 seconds of Soldier Zero!

True Blood – Fresh Blood

August 31, 2010 | Justin Moody | TV Reviews

True Blood is like an incredibly convincing transvestite. On the outside it looks great and the teasing promises of a climactic event are incredibly exciting. However, when you get to the crunch, all you’re left with is a bunch of bits you didn’t ask for and a confusing moment when you decide whether or not to continue.

The Last Exorcism Review

August 28, 2010 | Justin Moody | Movie Reviews

Since The Exorcist debuted in 1973, no film about the devil has made such a lasting impression. The Exorcism of Emily Rose was a demure attempt, telling of the fabled possession in flashbacks. It was an effort, but not a memorable one. The Last Exorcism does not outdo The Exorcist nor does it fail at grasping attention. It sits comfortably on the fence for the majority of the film, bringing its own flair and folly to the subject.

Takers Review

August 28, 2010 | Simon Brookfield | Movie Reviews

Envision a GQ ad on speed with a dash of The Italian Job and you will have a good idea of what Takers has to offer. Though a slick and mostly kinetic heist flick, there is not a single frame of the entire running length that has not been borrowed from another, usually better, film. I don’t consider it a spoiler to reveal that the structure of the central robbery is identical to that of The Italian Job, down to the street-erupting armoured car interception and traffic light tampering. You would think that with all the talent drifting through Hollywood that they could come up with an original caper at least. Actually, never mind.
