#CrossoverInsider : ‘And the Award goes to…’ Oscar Winners Available Now, New Release Trailers & MORE!
WEEKLY REVIEW
Tyler Davis, Owner Crossover Video & Games
I think it’s probably safe to say that we’ve all had a boss, at one time or another, that we haven’t been particularly fond of. What did we do about it? Or better yet, what could we do about it? Back in 2011, we were introduced to three bumbling friends who all found themselves in this scenario. Their solution, however, was a tad bit radical- they conspired to murder their bosses! The premise seemed to resonate with moviegoers as “Horrible Bosses” earned over 117 million dollars in theatres. This prompted a sequel, appropriately titled “Horrible Bosses 2” which headlines this week’s new releases.
There are a total of ten new releases this week;
