For the past three days we’ve been bringing you pictures of the cast of The Avengers, and today the saga continues with Chris Hemsworth. He is, in my opinion, the most attractive member of The Avengers cast. (As an intern for College Candy I clearly have a very difficult job: compiling pictures of hot men.) If you’re still not excited to see The Avengers after these past three days of pictures of Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner, and Chris Evans, maybe these pictures will get you a little more interested: Read More »

The brand new kids movie Hugo is doing extremely well in theaters. EXTREMELY WELL. How many kids are there in this world who want to see that movie? Maybe some adults are going too because they have to take their children. However, I know one demographic that surely is not going to see Hugo or any other kids movies: College Students. We are too prideful and would never want to be seen in a kids theater unless we went drunk with all of our friends.

Recently, a lot of kids movies have come out and although I’m a college student and wouldn’t be caught dead seeing them, I SECRETLY WANT TO. Some of these movies look good and funny, but I’ll never see them because I don’t want to deal with that kind of shame. Read More »

Bridesmaids has been rocking it in theaters, earning over $100 million dollars. (Sidenote: loved it when my guy friends were pretty open about the tough decision of choosing between Bridesmaids and The Hangover Part II.) For pretty much the first time ever, the chic flick wasn’t a romcom but just a shout out to ladies, a story about friendship and general hilarity. Because the movie did so well in theaters, Hollywood apparently has a whole slew of women’s interest movies coming up that also won’t be classified as a romcom. Don’t get me wrong, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days still ranks pretty high on my list of faves (Helloooo Mathew McConaughey) but there a lot of other issues that I’d like to see addressed.

1.) Pregnancy

Ridiculous cravings, outlandish tempers, and random bodily issues paired with baby showers, friends who drink without you and– oh yeah– that whole weight gain thing. Sounds like a recipe for success to me. Read More »

Whether you’re looking to avoid an assignment or a spate of bad weather, the movie theater is the perfect getaway. 2011 has a selection of films to suit every taste—and with the recession still bedeviling the box office, plenty of theaters are offering discounted tickets to students these days. I’ve combed through the archives of IMDB and Apple Trailers to bring you my picks for the year. How can you resist?

The perfect escape from reality, and the perfect excuse to sit in a dark room for hours and not talk to anyone. There’s something for everyone, and something to see with everyone.  Not sure what to see when? Check out our guide below.

The weekend is finally here!  After five long, tiring days of work, school, and fixing all of your friends’ problems, Saturday and Sundare are here to save you.

What better way to kick off your two days of freedom than by going to see some new movies?  You may have caught the previews for some of these, but all of them are out today…

Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist — If you loved Juno, you’ll like this movie

Beverly Hills Chihuahua — This is for all the animal lovers out there

How To lose Friends and Alienate People — Possibly your life, in a movie starring Kristin Dunst

An American Carol — A spoof on Michael Moore and his fims. Pure satire comedy!

Flash of Genius — A Man Against Machine docudrama

Blindness — Blindness is contagious

Rachael Getting Married — Family drama and a wedding, what more can you ask for?

I wouldn’t be the movie buff that I am without saying my pick of the week, and sorry to tell you, it’s not Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist, even though I am looking forward to seeing it. My pick is Blindness. This movie is so close to real life it’s scary, and it doesn’t hurt that Dr. Christina Yang from Grey’s Anatomy is in it.

So there you have it, the new releases for this week!  Now go grab your significant other, the one you’re hooking up with, or your best friends, and enjoy a movie tonight.
