Theater Whore: Spotlight

Spotlight 7/10

I finally got a chance to watch Spotlight after hearing about how good it was for so long. It has a huge cast with Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, John Slattery, Stanley Tucci, Liev Schreiber, and Billy Crudup. This is based off of the news team that covered the true events that led to it being publicly known that a lot of Catholic priests were diddling children, not just boys, and covering it all up back in 2001. If shit got too hot they would just transfer them to another location or just pay the victims off. It sucked.

Theater Whore: Foxcatcher

Foxcatcher 8/10

Wow. Foxcatcher was a really good film. Notice how I said film and not movie. That means its classy. I had heard how good this was and just never got around to seeing it a while back because there have been so many movies out. This is based off of a true story and one of those type of films that come out every few years. No explosions or anything, just really good acting by people you wouldn't expect this level of acting from.

Steve Carell plays John du Pont. He is a weird ass rich man from the du Pont family. He enjoys sports and since he can't play them and wasn't allowed to growing up he sponsors athletes. He calls on and brings in Mark Schultz played by Channing Tatum. He is an Olympic gold medalist with his brother Dave Schultz played by Mark Ruffalo. John brings in the younger Mark to help train a team for wrestling, Team Foxcatcher. Things quickly get very weird.

Who Is The Best Incredible Hulk?

Everyone knows who The Incredible Hulk is. I'll go out on a limb and say that he is probably one of the top five most known comic book characters in the world. There's Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Flash, and Hulk. Sad. Just realized that Hulk is the only Marvel character on that list. Not my problem. I decided to take the four live action versions of Hulk and see which one was possibly the best. I say that but don't actually make a decision. That's for you, you big baby. I can't make every decision for you!
