It’s time for yet another March Movie Madness matchup. On Monday we saw Dr. Richard Kimball outsmart Biff (which isn’t all that difficult), and master of dark magic Voldemort take out Scarface in an ultimate evil-off. This time, w...
Who would’ve thought that our closest fight yet in March Movie Madness would be between Judge Doom and William Wallace? The two ran neck and neck during the entire voting period, but Judge Doom finally squeaked out a narrow ...
March Movie Madness is moving along quite nicely now. We’ve ended the Batman debate (congrats to gruff-talking Christian Bale), and we’ve even figured out our first two winners who are moving on to the next round. In t...
I’ve decided that in order to differentiate the various brackets in the March Movie Madness tournament, we’re going to have to give them names. The NCAA gives each bracket a directional name (East, West, South, and Nor...
Welcome one and all to The Bonus View‘s March Movie Madness Tournament o’ Death. With the college basketball season nearing its widely popular 64-team tournament, we thought it would fun to create a little tournament o...

My fourth day at Sundance was my most extensive movie day. I saw five films. I’ve come to find out that five movies in a day is my limit. Any more than that, they all start to just blend together. It’s harder to judge ...
Monday was a day of rest. I only had one movie to go to, and that was the big premiere of Kevin Smith’s ‘Red State’. My wife came down from our house in Logan, Utah to hang out with me. I’m sure you donR...
For some reason, I feel like I’ve already been here a week. I swear, watching three to four movies a day ages you faster, or just makes you feel older. Today, when it hit 1:00 in the afternoon, I felt like it was 7:00 PM. My...
