The year's almost over and our DVRs are filled to capacity. Who knew so many shows would pique our interest? During the annual upfronts, we weren't impressed with most of the series orders.

2012, like any other year, had its host of good and bad films. But it's hard to recall a year that also had so many disappointing films as well (not quite the same as bad films--we'll get into that below). To the sheer, just awful dreck from such perennial underachievers as Adam Sandler, Eddie Murphy, and Tyler Perry, to the frankly shocking disappointments from filmmakers who could have...
When it comes to Must-See TV, 2012 brought it! The medium upped the ante with shocking deaths, surprise marriages and a wicked acid trip. There were plenty of watercooler moments that covered Hollywood and politics (we're looking at you Clint Eastwood). ScreenCrave's selected the top 10 that kept us buzzing days after their debut.
2012 provided us with a number of decent horror flicks. For so many years we were getting these awful horror movies, all suffering from the same sickness – cheap thrills and cliché endings. Paranormal Activity provided fans of the genre with something fresh and terrifying, but then that franchise fell into the same traps. The sequels, including the one we saw this year, failed to...

People's eyes are on the prize for the Best Picture Oscar, and so they're not as concerned with the Best Actress category.

Recently we've seen not one but two films about the life and films of Alfred Hitchcock: The Girl (which showed on HBO) and Hitchcock (which is in limited release now). But the master's career spanned through silents into talkies and he made films for over half a century. Unarguably one of the greatest and most influential directors to pick up...
