Movies We Love: 'Heat' – The Action Is the Juice

There are certain things that make you a man. It’s not a matter of mere plumbing or chromosomes. A man is more than that. A true man defeats his enemies. A true man can make it happen with the ladies.

Part 3: The VFW's Suicide PAC(t)

The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) has doubled-down on failure. Ignoring the growing protests of its outraged members, the supposedly “independent” VFW Political Action Committee (VFW-PAC) has issued a new statement refusing to back off on the disgraceful set of

The VFW's Suicide PAC(t)

The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) has doubled-down on failure. Ignoring the growing protests of its outraged members, the supposedly “independent” VFW Political Action Committee (VFW-PAC) has issued a new statement refusing to back off on the disgraceful set of

The Wachowski's 'Cobalt Neural 9': Bush Assassination Porn

We may have just found the outer edge of the Hollywood taste envelope, all thanks to Andy and Larry Wachowski, the creators of The Matrix. Formerly known as the Wachowski Brothers – that is, until Larry decided after making zillions

Death of the Movie Star: John Cusack… Why Say Anything?

Zen masters find that they are better able to focus their minds by mediating upon unanswerable questions. What is the nature of existence? Is there a God? Why does Hollywood still consider John Cusack a movie star?” You all know

The Liberal Media Have Met The Enemy and He Is Us

Well, the bad news is that we’re a bunch of racists. The good news, though, is that our liberal overlords are understanding. Due to their boundless capacity for empathy, they understand that we just can’t help the inherent bigotry that

Sucker Punch Squad: Clooney's 'The American' Has No Punch at All

[Editor’s Note: Script reviews of upcoming projects have been around for as long as there’s been an Internet. Therefore it’s no secret that a film can evolve into something quite different from its screenplay. Please keep in mind that this

Annoying Leftist Bumperstickers (Part 2): The Revenge

My recent post on those ubiquitous “COEXIST” bumperstickers seemed to touch a nerve among those of us sick of being subjected to pinko lectures via the tailgates of fast lane-plugging Prius hybrids and decaying VW vans. But “COEXIST” is only

The Onanistic Oeuvre of Oliver Stone

Even in the vast annals of Hollywood sycophantic suckuppery, the recent UK Guardian profile of Oliver Stone by Carol Cadwalladr is in a class by itself. It is a fawning treatise hailing everything about Ollie, from his unique artistic vision

'COEXIST?' You First.

So I’m driving down the 405 in West Los Angeles, thinking about how I can’t exist while others who believe differently from me exist, when I see it – a blue bumpersticker on the back of a Prius with the

Anklebiters Alert: Give 'Big Peace' a Chance

Big Peace took less than a day to start driving the Left up the wall and jumping the shark, which is probably exactly what Andrew Breitbart had in mind in the first place. But if you can get beyond their

SUCKER PUNCH SQUAD: 'The A-Team' Gets a "B"

It’s pretty clear from the loud and explodey and awesome trailer of the upcoming A-Team remake that the script version the Sucker Punch Squad’s source obtained was a draft or two back from the final shooting script. That’s a good

Don't Look To Generals To Revitalize The GOP

Conservatives need to be wary of the notion that General David Petraeus – or, for that matter, any other general or admiral – is necessarily the answer to their fervent prayers for victory in 2012. GEN Petraeus is a true

Why We Clubbed 'Glee'

The liberal reactionaries are in full hissy-fit mode at Big Hollywood for its latest heresy, calling out Glee for its gratuitous – and worse, unfunny – slam on Sarah Palin as “stupid.” Apparently, pointing out hackneyed liberal sucker punches lurking

HOLLYWOOD INSIDER: Hate the Pope, Love Polanski

Double standards are often nothing of the sort, and charges of double standards are often dodges by the disingenuous designed to convince the sophomoric that adhering to any kind of standard is inherently unjust. But then there are some actual

SUCKER PUNCH SQUAD: 'Red Dawn' Remake Is…

The script of the upcoming remake of the infamous America-conquered-by-Commies movie Red Dawn (1984) raises an intriguing question – can Hollywood actually still produce a movie where it takes America’s side? The answer is “Sort of.” “Wolverines!” There are some

Forever 'Hanoi Jane'

In 1987, my friend Pete and I – editors on our college’s conservative paper – got the chance to interview Vice Admiral James Stockdale. You might remember him as Ross Perot’s running mate, the man who asked in one debate,

Leftist Agenda Over Profit: Hollywood Resurrects Toxic Rosie O.

I must have missed the groundswell of support and the public clamor for the return of Rosie O’Donnell to the daytime airwaves. It seemed that her time in the cultural spotlight had passed following her notorious 2008 variety show failure

Why We Fight: Cameron, Hanks & Damon Drew First Blood

Why do we at Big Hollywood and elsewhere in the conservative blogosphere even care about James Cameron and his stupid eco-dreck cartoon? Or about Tom Hanks’ insights into the nature of American-Japanese relations World War II? Or about the conclusions

The Real Oscar Race: Who Will Say The Dumbest Thing?

The real fun of the Oscars isn’t the cut-throat competition for the little gold naked man but guessing who will make the biggest idiot of himself. The Academy Awards show has a fine tradition of pampered celebrities popping off with
