I rated the first Hellboy 79 and the second one a 83 so I did not hate them by any means, and I thought the direction by Guillermo Del Toro was great. So when we found out they were trying to do a … Continue reading Hellboy Review

The Best of Enemies is another movie in a long line recently dealing with the trouble history of racism in this country. It is a true story that was adapted into a book, then a play, and now a feature film. These movies have similar messages and all tug at the heart strings, but I have to try and put the emotions and the history … Continue reading The Best of Enemies

What an absolutely insane card we had in Atlanta. The co main and main event both are Fight of the Year contenders and the rest of the card had plenty of excitement as well. Here are my five thoughts! Dustin Poirier has earned everything he has ever been given.
