The summer is almost here and with it comes the things we look forward to all year: bonfires, beaches and blockbusters. “Iron Man 3″ has kicked off the season with an epic return to the screen in the third installment of this Marvel franchise. The film introduced a new director to the series, Shane [...] 
(Photo Credit: Arclight Cinemas) Now that you’ve (probably) seen Oblivion, Disconnect should be the next film on your to-see list.

Joss Whedon made a big splash last year with The Cabin in the Woods which premiered at SXSW and The Avengers which is now one of the highest grossing films of all time. During the time he was making The Avengers, he took off twelve days (instead of going on his 20th anniversary vacation) [...] 
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone had its world premiere at SXSW and gave audiences a heartfelt (if predictable) tale about two friends and their struggle to adapt to the times.
