DVD RvReview: Easy A
Posted in REVIEWS with tags Amanda Bynes, Easy A, Emma Stone, Movies on March 8, 2011 by Ross McGBlog Post Of The Week: What’s the point of the Oscars?
Posted in BLOG POST OF THE WEEK with tags Movies, Oscar, Oscars on February 24, 2011 by Ross McG
To round off our Oscar week here on Ross v Ross, let’s ask if we really should have them at all (Uh… we probably should have them – otherwise what the heck would we have filled our blog with these past few days?). Who better to answer that question than the great Fandango over at Fandango Groovers. One of the first movie blogs we started reading once we got our little shindig off the ground, it still always manages to catch our attention, no mean feat when you get distracted by pretty colours as much as we do. It’s also just celebrated its second birthday. So go over there, wish him a happy birthday and read his great post on the Oscars’ current standing. You can read it by clicking HERE or the image above. Happy birthday, Fands. Enjoy the Terrible Twos… Continue reading
Top Five… Forgotten Oscar Nominations
Posted in TOP FIVES with tags Movies, Oscar, Oscars on February 24, 2011 by Ross McG
They say history only remembers the winners, so why should Oscar history be any different? Here we countdown the Oscar noms that have completely slipped our tiny, fragile, little minds. These aren’t forgettable performances or movies – far from it – just the ones that make us go, ‘Wow, he/she/it was nominated for an Oscar for that?’ Continue reading
Blog Post Of The Week: And the Oscar winners should be…
Posted in BLOG POST OF THE WEEK with tags blog, Blogs, Movies, Oscar, Oscars on February 18, 2011 by Ross McG
We’re going to cheat a little on today’s Blog Post Of The Week and give you a double helping, even if both posts come from the same blog. And what a blog it is. We Rosses thought we were the coolest movie-blogging duo in town until we happened across the CyniCritics, where the writings of Matt and Luke (presumably Mark and John spread their own movie gospel elsewhere) are a regular treat for us. Like a lot of us out there, the boys have caught Oscar fever this week and have each compiled a rundown of who will win what, but more importanly, who should win what. The great thing about both their lists is that I find myself agreeing and disagreeing with them in equal measure. Get over there and give your own opinion. To read Matt’s list click HERE and to read Luke’s list click HERE. Let the guys know what you think. Continue reading

Posted in BLOG POST OF THE WEEK with tags Games, Movies on February 11, 2011 by Ross McG
Okay folks, it’s BPOTW time again, and today we’re featuring a really fun post from our buddy the Mad Hatter over at The Dark Of The Matinee. Along with fellow blogger Jess from Insight Into Entertainment, he has put out a rather clever little game of Guess The Combined Movie Title. We will let him explain… Suffice to say it will have you giving your cinema brain a good going over. Click HERE or the image above to read the post and guess as many of the clues as you can. Don’t scroll down to his comments section if you don’t want to spoil the answers! Continue reading
‘I haven’t had a flood of scripts since my Oscar’ – the Jeff Bridges interview
Posted in INTERVIEWS with tags Jeff Bridges, Movies, The Big Lebowski, The Coen Brothers, True Grit on February 8, 2011 by Ross McG
They don’t come much bigger than this. He is up for a potential second Best Actor Oscar in a row later this month for his performance in True Grit, but to most of us, Jeff Bridges is simply The Dude. And he just managed to find time last week to have a chat with Ross McG, talking about his Beatles moment, Colin Firth’s Oscar chances and The Big Lebowski 2. To read the interview, click HERE or the image above. Let us know what you think of the interview in the comments. Continue reading
