The Movie Mash Has Switched to the ‘Disqus’ Commenting Format
Posted by: | Comments
Since the beginning of The Movie Mash, we have been using Intense Debate as the commenting format. Unfortunately that system has been causing me some unnecessary headaches, so I have decided to switch. Disqus is a far superior format, allowing the best possible discussion on the site. Creating a profile is quick and easy. Just go to Disqus.com, make a profile and you’re set. Do this ASAP, so the “Top Commenters” feature can get up and running again.
Thanks all!

Vince Vaughn has proven that his comedy star power is still going strong this weekend as his tropical rom-com Couples Retreat snagged the top spot at the box-office taking in a very solid $35.3 million. Three out of his past four comedies, (minus Fred Claus) Wedding Crashers, The Break-Up and Four Christmases all grossed well over $100 million domestically, displaying the affection most movie-goers have for the fast-talking funnyman.
Matt’s Review: UP, Pixar Scores Again
Posted by: | Comments
As has been the case with every Pixar movie I have ever seen, I walked out of the theater more than satisfied. The animation giant strikes again with its newest adventure called UP. Movie goers have the option of viewing a 2-D or 3-D version of the latest installment in the Pixar franchise. I went for the 2-D because I just wanted to see the film; and I think 3-D is highly overrated and overpriced.
UP begins with two young children aspiring to be explorers named Carl and Ellie. They are looking to follow the footsteps of their hero Charles Muntz by exploring the uncharted territory in South America. Carl promises Ellie he will bring her on this grand adventure someday, and they quickly become best friends. They fit together like Scarlett Johansson and tight clothes, (which is amazing!) and as they grow up, get married. A brief montage-like summary of their life gives the audience a real sense of their strong relationship and love for one another. Pixar keeps it creative like always with an interesting time lapse to age Carl and Ellie from young to old.
Watch Entire Leaked “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” Right Now!
Posted by: | CommentsAs most of you Movie Mashers well know, Hollywood and Fox Studios was recently taken by storm due to the catastrophic DVD-quality online leak of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Now, when this originally happened a couple weeks ago, a friend of mine, (let’s just call him Izzy) downloaded the film and was desperate to watch it, due to his affection for comic-book adaptations. But I stayed strong, vowing that there are only 3 to 4 blockbusters a year that REQUIRE a theater experience. Then a friend sent me the absolutely shocking ending of the film, that I could not resist. Watch at your own risk.
JK! LOL! Totes Magotes got you!
