Pixar’s latest tackles puberty in adorable and mature ways. The reason why Meilin Lee looks cute and smells bad is because she’s been turned into a giant red panda, which gives off […]
Turning Red
The Cursed
Sean Ellis’ chilling horror flick shows greed who’s boss. I seriously doubt that both “Dog” and “The Cursed” will beat “Uncharted” at the weekend box office, because, as far as I’m concerned, […]

This CGI dog is lovable once you get to know him. Ever since my sister and brother-in-law got two girl dogs named Kona and Remi, I’ve grown a soft spot for dogs, […]
