February is traditionally known in the film industry as a dump month, the time in which studios take a steamy, hot, collective crap on the proverbial chest of theatergoers around the world.
The holidays are a time to stay home and spend time with family and friends. It’s also a time to trek to the nearest movie theater and pay to sit in silence with a bunch of strangers for a few hours.
I turned 23 this August and received a birthday card from my grandparents.
Well this one snuck up on me.

The season has changed and so have the offerings at the box office. Unlike the summer weather, the season’s blockbusters don’t seem to be sticking around. Instead we’ll be treated to some more seasonable hard sci-fi, Oscar bait and the token horror releases.

A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what is cool?

As “Baby Driver” proved this summer, any good crime needs a good playlist. So if you’re thinking of committing some light larceny in the near future, we’ve got you covered.
