Rental Review – X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Though I cannot take the same stand that I am sure many comic book fanatics are taking against this film, I will say that I feel slightly cheated by X-Men Origins: Wolverine. As the name states, Wolverine is an origin story for the beloved X-Men character, so let’s start at the beginning. The character of […]

Rental Review – Fighting

I remember back when I first saw the trailer for Fighting and thought to myself: “Ugh, this looks kinda lame. But ooo! Channing Tatum! Well I have to see it now…” Yeah I know. But trust me, sitting through this movie was punishment enough for that mistake. The problem with Fighting is that the only […]

Now Playing Review – 9

Expanding on his short film, Shane Acker creates a really solid film with 9 as it follows the journey of a group of dolls in a post-apocalyptic world; but unfortunately this is not enough to keep me from being slightly disappointed with the end result. As many have foretold before, man will eventually fall to […]

Now Playing Review – Inglourious Basterds

Forgive me mom, because I am about to dole out a word you aren’t fond of numerous times. Does it count in my favor that it isn’t spelled correctly? As far as I am concerned, Quentin Tarantino can rewrite everything we have learned from the history books, as long as he films his version. Though […]

Suggestion Box (Sept. 7 – 13)

The Guild – Season 3 Episode 2 was posted this week. Not as good as the others in my opinion, but you should still check it out here. The Legend of Neil – 4th episode of season 2 released this week. There is much bonding over drinking. Check it out here. Borderlands Claptrap Movie – […]

Thursday in TV – The Vampire Diaries Series Premiere

Coming from Glee’s premiere Wednesday night to the premiere of The Vampire Diaries is like jumping into a pool right after stepping out of the hot tub. Gone is most of the comedy, the general feelings of happiness, and worst of all, gone is the singing. But as much as I wish Diaries were a […]

Wednesday in TV – SYTYCD and Glee Premieres

Every year there is a day that seems more beautiful than most, a day that has been done the great injustice by not being named a holiday. What is this holy moment of divinity? The start of the fall season of television. So You Think You Can Dance Though I am more than pleased that […]

Rental Review – Duplicity

Duplicity has drawn a lot of comparisons to Mr. And Mrs. Smith, which does a great disservice to both films. Smith is the far superior film of the genre, and there is no way for Duplicity to reach its high level with this story, style, and quite frankly, the weaker acting. Duplicity follows two spies, […]

TV Review – Legend of the Seeker: Season 1

I don’t know how, but the first season of Legend of the Seeker managed to avoid my detection when it was on the air this past year. I think I got it confused with Merlin or something. However, it is available through Netflix’s instant queue, and I am really glad that my roommate and I […]
