Had the pleasure of sampling a new TABASCO® product in South Africa called Spicy Salt, which is made with Avery Island salt and ground red pepper, the essence of TABASCO® Red Pepper Sauce. Some select Ster-Kinekor cinemas have a new sprinkle and straw stand with a difference, it's called the Tabasco 'Hot Zone'. The stand has grills so that you don't mess over the table, making it look like a barbecue and offer spicy salt shaker and jalapeno sauce as a popcorn alternative.

This spiced salt sprinkle is amazing! I only recently started using hot sauce on my homemade popcorn after watching an episode of Frasier where Niles adds a sprinkle of TABASCO® Red Pepper Sauce. Fantastic idea, great product placement instead of the Dom Perignon for a change! Plus it's way better than store bought sprinkles - because it actually sticks!

I used to get frustrated by the salt shakers and flavoured sprinkles that would just drop to the bottom of the bowl or popcorn box. Now I know that the movie house flavour sprinklers work a treat and I rarely go into a movie without a salt & vinegar or butter & salt topping, but this is the creme de la creme of popcorn sprinkles. Not only does it stick to the popped kernels, it tastes great... as it says spicy, yet salty.

Now I wouldn't recommend you go overboard with the sprinkle because if you're not used to hot sauce like TABASCO®, then you'll have to extinguish the flames on your tongue with your Coke and the person's next to you! This is a great accompaniment to the tired selection of popcorn sprinkles out there and I just hope that cinemas continue to offer this flavour as part of their arsenal.

TABASCO® Spicy Salt is good enough to sway which movie house I go to and I'm pretty sure it'll do the same for you if you like your food with a little extra zing! So take in a movie and try it for yourself. It's difficult to miss the crazy Tabasco Spicy Salt and Japapeno on popcorn  'Hot Zone' stand with its blinking infra-red lights and fiery exterior - the thing looks like it's about to lift off!

"She's out of my league"... those crushing words have been uttered many times in a variety of awkward social situations. That phrase may be damning, ego-deflating and self-deprecating, but it still doesn't stop 10s from locking arms with 5s, right? Come on be honest... when you see a 10 with a 5: first base is money, second base is some sort of practical joke, third base is prostitution and a home run - how often does that happen? Well, what if it did happen to a friend - for real. Would you believe it for one minute and more importantly, would you be a supportive friend or a doomsday prophet? Well, that's where Kirk (Jay Baruchel) finds himself caught between his berating airport security friends and Molly (Alice Eve), a perfect 10 in She's Out of My League.

After Kirk loses his "longtime" girlfriend, his destiny is set to change as a drop dead gorgeous 10 named Molly forgets her cellphone in that plastic x-ray container at the security check. Kirk, the only security guy not to lose his head upon her arrival, contacts her to make a rendezvous at an exclusive party and the rest as they say is history... but how long will their romance last before it really becomes history?

If you're expecting a comedy in the style of American Pie, you'd be right and wrong... While She's Out of My League does bowl one or two American Pie gutter balls featuring premature ejaculation and a pubic trim, these moments are short-lived and actually quite funny. The language is responsible for the greater part of its age restriction, yet the overall tone is actually quite sweet sponging the majority of the filth. Jay Baruchel also goes a long way to cleaning up the teen comedy residue with a nice guy performance you can't help but like. You may even catch yourself thinking, so what if he gets the girl, he's paid his dues in embarrassment and it's time...continued.

Toy Story 3 completes the groundbreaking Pixar Toy Story trilogy 11 years after Toy Story 2 in Real 3D. It's been worth the wait... as Toy Story 3 throws fourteen new characters into the toy box, ups the stakes for the gang and presents another near-perfect animated adventure. The original voice cast of Tom Hanks (Woody), Tim Allen (Buzz), Joan Cusack (Jessie), Don Rickles (Mr. Potato Head), Wallace Shawn (Rex), John Ratzenberger (Hamm) and Estelle Harris (Mrs. Potato Head) are back!

It feels like it's been more like a year or two than a decade since we saw Buzz Lightyear taking on the evil Zorg. Well, it's onto new things in Toy Story 3 as Andy has aged with the film and ready to head off to college. There's plenty of nostalgia that goes with his prized possessions, but it's time to stash the memories away in the attic. Events take a turn and it's not long before Woody, Buzz, Barbie and the rest of Andy's toys land up in Sunnyside, a daycare centre.

Toy Story 3 had to be bigger, bolder and funnier than its predecessors, which is probably why it took Pixar so long to refine part three according to their high standards. Most sequels follow this formula, delivering more of the same with a bigger budget and more time constraints. This is not the same for Toy Story 3, which looks and feels like it's been in production all those years.

The story manages to swirl around several characters, while introducing new toys and maintaining a strong focus on entertainment without losing control. There's never really a dull moment with such superb storytelling from Michael Arndt, John Lasseter,Andrew Stanton and director, Lee Unkrich as Woody plans a rescue "round-up", Buzz talks Spanish and the creepy well-groomed Ken doll showcases his wardrobe for...continued.

The Box stars Cameron Diaz and while The Botox would have  been a more provocative title, the curiosity of discovering what's inside the box has been a "priceless" fascination for man, cat and baby since the beginning of time. Writer-director, Richard Kelly has only made one film since the acclaimed Donnie Darko. Unfortunately, Southland Tales didn't deliver the goods as a follow-up film and made Donnie Darko seem more like a fluke than a masterpiece. Even more disappointing is that it's still going South with The Box. Kelly has adapted a Richard Matheson short story called Button, Button into a fully-fledged film. However, fleshing out a skeleton when you've only got the Broken Heart in place is a lot more difficult than you'd expect...just ask anyone who's played Operation.

The Box is a mystery, a thriller, a drama and a work of science fiction... a similar mixture to Solaris. The characters find themselves in a surreal state of flux, which feeds into the notion that they're suspended in purgatory. Now the '70s weren't that bad, but Kelly sets the story in an era of lunar fascination some years after the first moon landing, possibly an echo of Donnie Darko's '80s fixation. The Lewis's are still seeking financial stability with Arthur (Marsden) working at NASA intent on becoming an astronaut and Norma (Diaz) facilitating as a school teacher and mom. When a mysterious stranger (Langella) arrives on their doorstep with a curious wooden box, the couple are forced to make a dramatic and life-changing decision at the press of a...continued.
