Movie Reviews and Previews My Marvel/Vin Diesel nightmare I cannot stand Vin Diesel. CANNOT. STAND. I don’t have a good reason for it. (Lainey: I have several.)

Movie Reviews and Previews The LEGO Movie actually looks funny (and Chris Pratt IS funny) A movie based on LEGO is an iffy proposition. On the one hand, it has universal appeal—LEGO has been popular so long that there are kids playing with it today and there are generations of adults who grew up with it, too. Who doesn’t love LEGO? It’s By Sarah • Jul 08, 2013 03:08 pm
