The Story of Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice
The follow up to MAN OF STEEL was probably the riskiest comic book movie of all time. Could Zack Snyder bring Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman to the big screen, and make it work? Here's the story of how the Trinity made their way to the silver screen, and how studio interference screwed not only Zack Snyder, but fans of the DCEU everywhere. This is the story of BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE.

The Story of Man of Steel
Today I am very happy to bring you the story of MAN OF STEEL. Zack Snyder's launch of the DCEU became one of my favorite films in 2013, and it has remained one of my favorite films since its release. The subsequent BATMAN V SUPERMAN is a superior film, but this really paved the way for Zack Snyder's stellar vision of Superman.

The Story of The Blair Witch Project (1999)
The Blair Witch Project is a movie that has influenced the kind of filmmaker I've wanted to be like no other film. The found footage genre is what it is because of the works of Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez. For a 22 year old movie, it still holds up in regards to its legacy, and this is a story I'm very happy to share with you.

The Story of Planet of the Apes (2001)
In 2001, Tim Burton's reboot/reimagining of the PLANET OF THE APES hit theaters, and divided audiences. And 20 years later the controversial ending still does the same. But just how did this movie get made? How did it take 20th Century Fox 13 years to put this on the big screen, and how did it go through directors like Peter Jackson, Chris Columbus, Oliver Stone, James Cameron...and even Steven Spielberg? This is that story.

The Story of Cloverfield (2008)
JJ Abrams & Matt Reeve's CLOVERFIELD is one of my all time favorite films. The movie is not only an amazing found footage "home movie", but it is also the American Kaiju movie we didn't know we've been waiting for.
