OK, I'll admit right off the bat that none of the apps that I'll be talking about here are truly essential, but each one has made my Android smartphone experience a better one.

Team Movie Throw Down!
The summer 2010 movie season gave movie fans three different team films to choose from. Each film brought something different to the table but at the end of the summer they couldn't help but be lumped together.
So which team film was the best of the summer? Of course that's subjective but not here. After all this is my site so I can give you a definitive answer.

The Losers
"It's like giving a handgun to a six year old, Wade. You don't know how it's gonna end, but you're pretty sure it's gonna make the papers."

Go Team!
If I remember the underwhelming 2010 summer movie season for anything it will be the amount of "team" films that hit theaters. Between April and August movie fans were treated to 3 team-based films. Considering that none of them were part of the Mission:Impossible franchise this is pretty remarkable.

My Favorite Movie Moments - Halloween (1978)
Part of an ongoing series documenting some of my favorite movie moments. Be warned that just about every entry will contain spoilers.
John Carpenter's Halloween was the first film in the "Golden Age" of slasher films. Sure we had seen slashers on screen before it, but after the surprise runaway success of Halloween the slasher film would become the go to sub-genre within horror for the next dozen years.
The film finds Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) babysitting a pair of kids on Halloween night. All is going well until an unwelcome visitor comes to town with bloodshed on his mind. At the 1hr 16 minute mark Laurie discovers some of her friend's corpses. Backed against a wall and trying to process what she has seen, a figure slowly appears from the darkness. In a great movie moment Carpenter and Cinematographer Dean Cundy have made it seem like our eyes are starting to adjust to the darkness that fills the house.
