Suck factor: the glory of violence, the horror of sexuality by Scholars & Rogues on Nov 16, 2009There are three mainstays in today’s Hollywood: sex, violence and special effects.

Homophobia wins again by Stunatra's Place on Nov 7, 2009I know I am probably the last one in the blogosphere to write about this, but here it is.
