Flick Rewind: Movie Columns For The Educated Moviegoer

2007 Movie Retrospective: The Good, The Bad, And The Atrocious- 2007 has come and gone and, as usual, we have had our fair share of good films, decent ones, and downright terrible films. So without further ado here is a list of films that we here at FlickDirect find the best and worst of this past year.

Home Theater vs. Movie Theater - My Home Theater Is Better Than Anything, Ever - I have to admit, I never thought anything could look and sound this good. It has gone through many incarnations but finally I have achieved "Home Theater Nirvana". I don't mean to boast, but sitting in the movie theater pales in comparison...

Movie Piracy? Ha! Just ask Entertainment Weekly's Top Theater - According to boxofficemojo.com, box office receipts stagnated in 2002 and 2003, and then hit a record of $9.418 billion in 2004. 2005 saw a substantial drop to $8.840 billion, the first drop in box office receipts since 1991. 2006 couldn't even get back to 2004 numbers, finishing at $9.209 billion. So when you factor in that prices at the movie theatres are continuing to rise, it can mean only one thing – less people are going to the movies...

Screamfest 2006, A Convention to Remember - I have attended NFFC Conventions, I have participated in Mousefest conventions, but nothing could prepare me for Screamfest 2006, presented by Spooky Empire Inc., Florida’s largest Horror Convention that was just held for the first time in Orlando, Florida on October 13th – 15th.

Top 7 Cheesy 80's Sit-com Theme Songs - Ah, the 80's...a prosperous time for many, and a golden age of situation comedy. A pre-requisite for any great 80's sit-com was a catchy, mind numbingly optimistic theme song that let you know, no matter what situation our characters found themselves in, everything would be back to normal in less than 30 minutes. So without further ado, we present the top 7 best (worst?) 80's sit-com theme music in no particular order.
