Action Flick Chick | September 14, 2011

With the endless line of remakes/reboot Hollywood is producing lately, I couldn’t help but ask twitter, “What movie should NEVER be remade?” A lot of people answered Back to the Future, which I couldn’t agree with more, but that’s not my number one film I’d hate to see get remade. I’m almost afraid to mention [...]

Seth Green unlocked new achievements in geeking out this week. On Monday, he tweeted (@SethGreen) and played  HALO for the very first time, “getting my ass sadly handed to me” at Nathan Fillion’s HALO party. Shortly before that, the music video “G33k & G4m3r Girls” (a.k.a. “Geek and Gamer Girls Song”) in which he raps [...]

Sigourney Weaver, Eliza Dushku, Zoe Saldana, and Elizabeth Mitchell. What do all these names have in common? They’re all women who kick a lot of ass! And I was super pumped to be at this panel during Comic-Con 2009. All of these women have set good examples for women everywhere by playing strong female roles in movies or TV shows, and done quite nicely showing Hollywood that women have what it takes to “run with the big dogs” and basically kick a lot ass along the way.
