Lots of news on this one. Variety reports that G. I. Joe has yet another cast. This one’s not of the young blood elk. He’s saved the world from global freezing, he’s ventured inside a “Short” body, he had “The Right Stuff” to orbit the earth. Needless to say he is well qualified to lead the elite […]

It is safe to assume that the people seeing movies like “Meet The Spartans,” are not reading this site, if you are, no offense, I just wish you would spend […]
