From my review of Jackass Number Two: During the end credits of Jackass Number Two Bam Margera, who cries a couple of times in this film, says, “I hope there’s no Jackass 3.” I understand where he’s coming from – this movie has upped the ante so much that I… Continue reading
Writing about the Justice League of America movie has already proven to be a war of attrition, and it's not getting any easier. On the heels of the announcement that Jessica Biel was in talks to play Wonder Woman in the film, EW.com reports that the actress… Continue reading
