The Animated Addict: "The Adventures of Tintin" (2011)

If you're a 40 + white dude, like myself, you may remember a comic series called " The Adventures of Tintin ".  I know I remember them.  This series, dating back to 1929, got turned into a animated feature film by Steven Spielberg in 2011.

Guest Review: Tron Legacy

Anthony Michael Bosa is in The Basement with his thoughts on the Tron upgrade. Read on for details! This is a excellent sequel to the classic from my youth.

All in all, if you liked the first film, or even if you didn't, this is worth a watch. A Good review from me.
