The Winter Soldier Really Is a Good Movie, Honestly
Can’t fault the Screen Junkies for being totally honest. They’re the ones who made the rules.
I’ve seen Captain America: The Winter Soldier a second time now, and it still holds up as a great action film. It’s one of those movies I might even consider buying the DVD for, like some kind of archaic ritual.
Today Feels Like an Expendable Kind of Day
I don’t particularly care for The Expendables franchise, but gosh darn it, I love the attitude behind it. The idea of getting together all of the classic action movie stars in one franchise is just the bee’s knees. And today, being the random Thursday of my week off from work, it feels like an Expendables kind of day!
Check out the Honest Trailer for The Expendables.
And then as a real treat, check out Expendables: The Musical by legolambs. These guys are geniuses and this is one of their best.
That song gets me pumped for the rest of my day of lounging around doing nothing!

Fear the Wrath of Internet Mockery, Ninja Turtles!
Sadly, I’m not going to see the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie this weekend (or happily, depending on your point of view). I kind of want to see it, no matter how bad it’s going to be. But I’m on vacation this weekend, headed to Boston Comic-Con! That will, hopefully, be a lot more fun. And I’ll be able to talk a lot more about Comic-Con after the weekend. Until then, I’m going to milk the Ninja Turtles for more enjoyment!
Such as, Everything Wrong with the first Ninja Turtles movie courtesy of Cinema Sins!
Then we switch gears for an Honest Trailer of Ninja Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze!
As a kid, the sequel was my favorite, but it does not hold up very well. I think I watched both movies a few weeks ago, and the both were pretty alright.
As a bonus, we also have Everything Wrong with TMNT, a movie I actually saw in theaters. It was not my finest moment.
Before I leave you, how about I ask the most important question ever: Who is your favorite Ninja Turtle?
Mine is Leonardo. Boss.

Green Lantern Taken Down Yet Another Notch
The good folks at Screen Junkies have finally gotten around to doing an Honest Trailer for Green Lantern.
It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. I feel like they could have done a lot, lot more with this wreck of a movie – which, I’ll admit, I liked after I first saw it. No, don’t go back and search for my original movie review. You won’t like what you see.
It’s X-Men Weekend!
X-Men: Days of Future Past is getting insanely good reviews! I’m getting more and more excited, but I’m not going to see it until Saturday night, so somehow I just have to hold on. I can bide my time with Honest Trailers! They wrapped up all three original X-Men movies into one parody!
I think my favorite X-Men film remains X-Men: First Class. But here’s hoping Days of Future Past blows it out of the water.
