| ‘Goat’ Trailer: Try Surviving Hell Week Run By Nick Jonas and James Franco
Okay, the title may sound like a joke at first, but Hell Week is a very serious thing and after watching the new trailer for Goat, it’s hard to believe that someone like Nick Jonas could force a fresh frat brother to go through the pains of any sort of acts of humiliation or degradation. But that’s what we get to see in Andrew Neel‘s new film, which was a hit at Sundance earlier this year. Now that it has made its festival run, the film is getting ready for a theatrical release. Check out the trailer for Goat below.

| Movie Review: So How Was ‘Warcraft’ To A Hardcore ‘World Of Warcraft’ Geek?Warcraft
Director: Duncan Jones
Screenwriter: Charles Leavitt and Duncan Jones
Cast: Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Robert Kazinsky, and Daniel Wu
Distributor: Universal Pictures
Rated PG-13 | 123 Minutes
Release Date: June 10th, 2016 Critics have been rather harsh to Warcraft so far, and as the lights dimmed and the movie started, I came into the theater thinking that I was only there to throw a little love on director Duncan Jones.

So how was the movie, when watched by a hardcore WoW geek?

Warcraft
Director: Duncan Jones
Screenwriter: Charles Leavitt and Duncan Jones
Cast: Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Robert Kazinsky, and Daniel Wu
Distributor: Universal Pictures
Rated PG-13 | 123 Minutes
Release Date: June 10th, 2016 It’s not easy being a movie adaptation based on a very popular video game, especially one that has a huge fanbase like “World of Warcraft.” The long-running MMORPG has been a part of the gaming culture for the better part of 20 years, and with that kind of history, there is bound to be a number of stories to work with at anyone’s disposal. So with Warcraft, it was up to Duncan Jones (Moon) to go straight back to the beginning where it all started, and give us a film that both players and non-gamers can appreciate, by tapping into the source material and using the mythology of the fantasy genre. However, the film does not deliver. In fact, it falls very short of saving the kingdom and lets the castle fall into the enemy known as boredom. Check out my full review below.
