Have to take a moment and give a big shout-out to my brother, Michael. His friends call his Soup (because, you know, our last name is Campbell), some people call him Mike, but he's always going to be Michael to me. I like the full names.2009 has been a big...
It's rare to find me not liking a Tarantino film. I just like his style, and the hyper-violence and witty reparté he writes into his movies is timely yet possesses so many winks and nods to other movies and directors that it's hard to keep up sometimes but enjoyable nonetheless.For...
Last week's column, this time brought to you by ScrippsNews.com, reviews Wolfenstein and Madden 10.
