This ‘Freddy Got Fingered’ Conspiracy Theory From Tom Green Actually Sounds Plausible By Ben Pearson/Nov. 18, 2017 11:00 am EST I haven’t thought about actor/comedian Tom Green or his 2001 absurdist comedy Freddy Got Fingered since we wrote this article in March of 2016 about how a man was arrested after not returning his VHS rental of it after 14 years. If you told me that Green had a conspiracy theory about why Freddy Got Fingered didn’t perform well at the box office, I’d have shrugged it off – but he really does have one, and it actually sounds pretty reasonable....

TR-8R: The Origins Of The Surprise Breakout Character From ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ By Peter Sciretta/Jan. 4, 2016 8:00 am EST We knew that Gwendoline Christie’s character Captain Phasma didn’t have a huge role, but many fans were expecting the chrome-plated stormtrooper Captain to be the Boba Fett of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

‘Immortals’ Review: Big Dumb Blood, Sweat And Beauty By Russ Fischer/Nov. 11, 2011 1:00 pm EST Immortals is a flagrantly artificial, insanely violent film. ‘Insanely’ violent because minutes at a time pass where the frame is filled with nothing but graphically split bodies and crushingly brutal combat, with no point beyond the arresting visual of digital viscera in slow motion. But the director of Immortals, Tarsem, who also made The Cell and The Fall, is talented at fooling us into thinking that looking cool is good enough, and so I drank in the gory violence like spring water at an oasis....
