I know people who have a frightening resemblance to Jack Black in this movie. In fact, Black’s external passion for rock music is the equivalent to my internal love for it. You see, I could never act this goofy and get away with it. School Of Rock caught me completely… Continue reading
It’s that time of the year. The time where all the studios dumpster-dive in the back lot to see what should be released during the dog days of winter. Eurotrip has emerged, and it’s a shame. If you took every road trip comedy ever made, ingested them, then bonged a… Continue reading
