In the spirit of international cooperation comes INTRUDERS, a new film that kicks it old school in its tale about two children — a boy and a girl — in two, different countries who find themselves menaced by… ssssssomething… that visits them in the middle of the night with intentions that extend well beyond just …

Judah Friedlander is World Champion (Sponsored Post)

El Flamboyan Community Garden: Good Stuff Growing in the Bronx (Sponsored Post)
I won’t hide it: I’m New York City born-and-bred. Concrete was my cradle, and carbon-monoxide-tinged air my mother’s milk (a strained analogy, but apt).

I don’t want to be the one to tell the people at Samsung their job, but I think it’s high-time somebody told the people at Samsung their job. I mean, they’re a good sponsor and alla that — if it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to sit down with show biz …

And if you’re an astute, industry-insider like me, you’re probably thinking, Wow… MOFILM winner. What the hell’s a MOFILM? Turns out the folk at MOFILM are kinda crowdsourcing matchmakers. They bring in a number of sponsors — …

Guillaume Dolmans Goes on “The Date” (Sponsored Post)
So, another fun little sponsored post for y’all. This time Heineken’s the backer: They’ve got a new episode in what appears to be their ongoing series of “Nightlives of Really Cool Guys” videos.
