Beatz & Lyrics With Jayforce Brings 15-Year Anniversary Show To A3C 2014 Main Stage (Event)

Nightcrawler (Trailer)
Awww maaannn! As soon as I saw the title on this I figured Marvel had slipped a comic-turned-movie in under the Fall radar. You know, like Nightcrawler from the X-Men series. But nope. It’s an action/drama/thriller about a guy who finally finds his way to make a living; as a freelance video-journalist. BUT… the stuff he captures way before even cops and ambulances get on-scene… it goes too far. And as you’d expect in real life, sh!t gets too real for our hapless [sort of] hero.
Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Lou Bloom, a driven young man desperate for work who discovers the high-speed world of L.A. crime journalism. Finding a group of freelance camera crews who film crashes, fires, murder and other mayhem, Lou muscles into the cut-throat, dangerous realm of nightcrawling — where each police siren wail equals a possible windfall and victims are converted into dollars and cents. Aided by Rene Russo as Nina, a veteran of the blood-sport that is local TV news, Lou thrives. In the breakneck, ceaseless search for footage, he becomes the star of his own story.
Watch how real it gets. And not in any funny way either. I mean, hey, it hits screens this Halloween (October 31, 2014).

American Sniper (Trailer)
A Navy SEAL recounts his military career, which includes more than 150 confirmed kills.
Oh my damn! Alright, Bradley Cooper already showed he had ‘military chops’ as the Faceman TV-to-big-screen “A-Team” movie. But this. No comedy…at all. At least not in trailer above. Cooper has the lead in a tense thriller and real-life story about ‘The Most Lethal Sniper In U.S. History’… the individual and collective life-death struggle that is war. This isn’t a story of good vs. evil; it’s ALL evil with peppered in moments of humanity.
Wow. Watch.
