Should Hollywood Make An A-Rod Movie?

08.8.2013 | By |

It was painful to watch Yankee third baseman Alex Rodriguez at the press conference the other evening in Chicago. He seemed regretful to be in this public position again – accused of taking illegal performance enhancing drugs. He never confessed to it, but he also never denied it, which in itself, is a sign of culpability in the court of public opinion.  For this, he has been suspended by MLB commissioner Bud Selig to 211 games for violating the games drug policy. That means all of this season and all of next. He’s lucky he didn’t get a lifetime ban which is what Selig was looking for. The unruly crowd of reporters from every corner of the world amassed in the press room to cover the event, but let’s be frank, to also be part of a notorious moment in sports history. It all so felt like a movie – as if Al Capone was addressing the Chicago police department on national TV.

Because that presser felt like The Untouchables and because Alex’s whole life is like a movie, I beg the question… should Hollywood make an A-Rod movie?  Read More

Watch: New Trailer for ‘Thor: The Dark World’

08.7.2013 | By |

The second trailer for Marvel’s ‘Thor’ sequel, ‘Thor: The Dark World,’ is here. The new movie looks more polished than before, but still holds that trademark Marvel humor. Loki (Tom Hiddleston) seems to be a big part of the story line – why wouldn’t he? Every geek knows that Hiddleston is the most popular actor in the Marvel universe right now, even rivaling Robert Downey Jr! The movie will be released November 8th, 2013.

Check out the trailer and let us know what you think! Read More

Watch: ‘Enough Said’ Trailer starring James Gandolfini

08.6.2013 | By |

It’s incredible to think James Gandolfini has passed away. I still can’t believe it. Which is why I’m very thrilled to see the first trailer in one of his final performances in Nicole Holofcener‘s Enough Said, which debuts next month at Toronto before Fox Searchlight gives it a September 20 release.

Gandolfini stars opposite Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Toni Collette, and Catherine Keener in the comedy about a divorced woman who decides to pursue the man she’s interested in and learns he’s her new friend’s ex-husband. The whole plot seems hilarious and we get to see a different side to Gandolfini we don’t see often – the tender teddy bear.

Gandolfini’s last movie will be Animal Rescue, a crime-drama centered around a lost pit bull, a wannabe scam artist, and a killing. That film will be released next year.

We’re The Millers: 5 Questions With Jennifer Aniston, Jason Sudeikis

08.6.2013 | By |

Comedies have fared slightly okay this 2013 with “This Is The End” and “The World’s End,” arguably, being the best halfway through the year. Director Rawson Marshall Thurber (Dodgeball) gives us We’re The Millers, a typical Hollywood comedy with enough R-rated laughs to allow a recommendation. Read More

Watch: ‘One Direction: This Is Us’ International Trailer!

08.5.2013 | By |

Sony Pictures just released the new international trailer of “One Direction: This Is Us“. There are some slight changes compared to the US version but it all gives a great insight to the phenomenon that is “1D” (you hardcore fans know what I’m talking about). Will this movie be a success?

Peliculeando – ‘2 Guns,’ ‘Smurfs 2,’ ‘The Canyons’

08.2.2013 | By |

Back in January 13th of 2008, I began the first ever Spanish movie review radio segment with Luis Jimenez, one of the premiere morning personalities in radio, regardless of language. It’s been 5 years and we’re still kicking it strong better than ever. The segment airs every Friday on his morning program “The Luis Jimenez Show” which airs on the top rated – X 96.3FM – on Univision Radio. I review (in Spanglish for the most part) the latest theatrical releases along with the new DVD/Blurays and what’s On Demand at home. Read More

Update: Nicholas Sparks has just added a new city and date for the book signing of his newest literary release, “The Longest Ride”. It’ll be on September 30th in Miami, FL, at Books & Books.

When one thinks of romance in the movies, it’s hard not to think of Nicholas Sparks being behind one of them. The American novelist, screenwriter and producer has put out so many hits that he’s now decided to go… español. Spanish readers are about to get a jolt of what it feels like to read a new book of his in Spanish during its premiere release. Read More
