Season 4 Round 2 Update

Delaware

The Christian Bale-led movie about George Washington's crossing the Delaware was on my watch-list for some time now, as I had really high expectations for the Scott Cooper film. Despite some aurguable casting decision (Ed Helms in a drama), I was surprised to see how great it turned out to be. Christian Bale carries each and everyone of his scenes with his undeniable charisma, truly an early front runner in the Best Actor race. (4.4/5)

The Fog

It's the second time this season that Last Resort Films greenlit a second remake of a movie, but unlike Cat People, I was saddened to see that no improvements were made from the original film. Our own writer, Ann Morrow, wrote two remakes and I urged her to stop doing so after Amelie, as remakes usually don't turn out how you want them to be in the first place, even more so when there's no real change in the movie. Just watch the original instead. (1.3/5)

Halo 2

It's always to hard to critic your own work, as you don't want to be overly positive, because of course you like the movie you wrote, but you also don't want to be rude in your critic. For the second installment of the Halo franchise, I decided to address what was severely lacking in the first movie : villains. While this part of the film was appreciated, there was a concern about character development. Rest assured, I'll do my best for Halo 3, which brings me to the huge announcement.

The Halo Universe

With the immense success of the Halo franchise, the Mo Buck's Writers Association members have decided to work together to create the Halo Universe. Starting with Season 5, the Halo Universe will introduce several new characters to help build a cinematic universe. The first installment of the Universe was Halo and the second is Halo 2. Scheduled to come out in Season 5, Halo: ODST will serve as a prequel to Halo. Don't expect Alexander Skaarsgard's John-117 to appear in these movies, but other characters could make an appearance here and there. Hope you're as excited as we are for the Halo Universe :)

Upcoming Projects

You'll sadly have to wait until Round 7 to see another movie by the Association. James Morgan, fresh off his Golden Reel win for Into Thin Air, penned an original story rumored to be a drama. In other news, Ann Morrow recently told me that The Price of Fame, her Season 4 movie, will be her last. We're working very hard to replace her.
