Captain Harlock – Trailer
Captain Harlock is one of those Japanese animated gems you remember from your childhood in the late 70s. Badly dubbed episodes of pure sci fi joy…. at least that’s how we remember it.

Iron man 3 – Review
I was a little leery about Shane Black directing Iron Man 3 with his last and first directorial effort being Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. He definitely proved himself capable then, but to hand off such a high profile franchise…. Black comes through though. Iron Man 3 is a fun, action packed spectacle that successfully brings
