I kid, I just like the gif. But I do prefer prequels.

I believe a lot of us think about expanding our stories, whether it’s in the form of a sequel or a prequel ...

Awright, first things f*ckin' last…

The movie I will be talking about today: “The Ruins” (2008) – there will be spoilers, so please be warned. The following movie is for mature ...
