Top 10 Star Wars Movies

Ah, this author still recalls going to his local theatre to catch a rare triple-bill showing of the three original Star Wars films. We watched Star Wars: A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi on the big screen in one day. As a kid things could not get any better […]

Power Rangers (2017) Review

This is not the Power Rangers you grew up with. With that out of the way, I do want to say that there will be spoilers in this review – up to the first hour of the movie anyhow. For me, that is the only way to properly review a movie but keep some mystery […]

Office Space Gets Official Game, Coming to Android

Almost 20 years ago we saw the release of a cult hit film called Office Space. It was a sad homage to the life of an office worker who attempted to get his life in order only to see that fail miserably. In the end, he finds happiness and a lot of “I don’t care” […]

It is kind of weird reviewing a television service provider but here it is. DirecTV Now just launched and there is a bit of buzz about it, some from confused people. What DirecTV Now offers is just what it sounds like: access to DirecTV without having a satellite dish outside and all of the trouble […]

Vudu Launches Free Streaming Service

It is interesting to note that more and more companies that control a lot of digital content are getting into offering a free option to viewers.  This is obviously movies and television focused as we won’t see Steam allowing similar things to happen with their gaming library anytime soon.  One early company to find success […]

Official Power Rangers Trailer Released

We have covered the upcoming Power Rangers reboot for a little while now here at Gravis Ludus.  To say we are at least interested is probably an understatement.  Until today though, we have been limited to official pictures and posters.  No real concrete evidence as to how the movie would work.  Would this be the […]

440 Days Until Star Wars VIII
