Star Wars: Episode VII

My dad told me that when the first Star Wars movie came out, he watched it about 10 times at the movie theater. Well, that was in 1977 and movie tickets were about $2.50.  The trailer for the upcoming Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens got mixed reviews as does any film these days. I am a big Star Wars nerd so I am definitely looking forward seeing this. Since it's only teaser, there isn't much to discuss except the eerie red cross-like light saber and flashes of new (and old?) characters. I am also a fan of J.J Abrams so I am very excited to see what he does with this franchise. It has been made into Legos and spin off cartoon shows, but I am hopeful that this first chapter in this new bundle of Star Wars movies will be one that my dad and I can watch over 10 times and not get tired of. When it comes out on DVD of course. What do you think about the new trailer?

Unless of course we found another planet to inhabit. Back to Christopher Nolan's new film, Interstellar stars Matthew Mcconaughey and Anne Hathaway. Earth is dying and Mcconaughey and Hathaway are astronauts who are on a mission to surpass the human limitation of space travel. I was blown away by the effects and the clarity of trailer. The people behind the scenes who make these amazing effects (not just this movie, mo...
