Good old Castor over at Anomalous Material (which I can never spell correctly) has done a cool meme – Desert Island CDs – where we all pick 12 songs from movies to listen to on the beach. I’m a bit late to the party, but here’s 12 of mine off the top of my stupid big head right now. Click the links to hear the tunes. Continue reading
Johnny Depp is a user. Indeed, no women (and few men) would mind being used by Johnny Depp. Anyway, to (track)mark the release of the clearly drug-induced Rango, Ross McD and Phantom’s Cinerama produce the evidence… Continue reading
Did Ross McG give this movie an ‘A’? Did we just start another DVD review with a lame joke? Questions.. questions…. Continue reading
Pirates… they’re not as fun as they used to be. Instead of yo-ho-ho-ing, singing sea shanties, drinking barrels of rum and inexplicably burying treasure instead of spending it, pirates now prefer actually kidnapping and killing people off the coast of Somalia. At least they’re still a bit of craic on screen. The Rosses take a Long John look at the silver screen’s best buccaneers. Click HERE or the pic above to read this battle at Metro Film Fight Club.

BREAKING NEWS: the footage you were fed last night was cleverly staged to make it look like a nice calm affair in which The King’s Speech politely took everything. But what you are about to watch is the real unedited footage smuggled out by Cope and Dalton… Continue reading
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.

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
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
We have gone a little Oscar crazy this week. With a little help from our friends. In an epic ten-way battle, Ross McD and Ross McG are joined by eight of their fellow movie bloggers to find out which Best Picture contender ought to go home with the Oscar this Sunday. All you have to do is read the arguments and vote for your favourite in our poll below. Click HERE or the rather spiffing image above to read this battle exclusively at Metro Film Fight Club.
