It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, I’m not referring to Christmas, although that is almost equally as great, but I’m talking about Spike TV’s 2011 Video Game Awards. It’s the one night of the year where the creators, voice actors and legends from the beloved industry all gather together in one location to honor the best of the year.

If you may or may not know, Kojima is not only the director of Kojima Productions but is…

Title: Super Directed By: James Gunn Starring: Rainn Wilson, Ellen Page, Liv Tyler, Kevin Bacon, Nathan Fillion I’m all for bizarre and outlandish comedy. When Napoleon Dynamite hit back in 2004, I fell in love. The difference between that film and James Gunn’s Super? Whereas Napoleon Dynamite was innocent silliness, Super is insulting madness. Perhaps the films would be comparable had Napoleon’s Liger jumped off the page and mauled Pedro to death. Super stars Rainn Wilson as Frank, a lame loser who happened to get lucky in the romance department and marry Liv Tyler’s character, Sarah. Sure enough, Frank’s luck runs dry and Sarah’s drug addiction creeps back into the…
