I think it’s pretty safe to say everybody’s been to a movie that would have been infinitely better with satiric running commentary from dry-witted, knowledgeable people. Of course, this can be a point of some debate as the likability of a movie is subjective and what one person likes another may not.

I’ve been debating what else to post as I work on more reviews and it occurred to me that as I’ve been browsing for video game news one thing has stood out: 2008 is the Year of the Video Game – at least for the PS3.
I am utterly in love with my PS3 and one [...]

Dee had a fantastic idea that I’ve decided to implement: A “Video of the Week”. I love finding quirky, off-beat videos online and sharing them with friends. What better way to do this than with a blog?
For the first video of the week I have to pay homage to that man who is quite possibly [...]

The new banner is up (everybody thank Dee for the rockin’ Photoshop job), which sent me into overdrive to finish my The X-Files: The Complete Collector’s Edition review. As you can see, it is now online and ready for your reading pleasure. It is long, but I was covering 61 discs worth of content.

When I was in middle school many years ago I discovered a little show called The X-Files. It was the show that made me want to be a forensic pathologist for the FBI. Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) was everything I wanted to be: smart, tough, and her job required her to carry a gun. [...]

Going into Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, I think I came out having watched two movies.
The first is everything one could expect from a fourth Indy movie, all the elements present and the second, George Lucas dying to show off by any means necessary.
Mac already covered the exorbitant amounts of groundhogs [...]

Just because I’m so excited for The X-Files: I Want to Believe I’ve decided that all the quotes I contribute to the “Quote of the Week” will be X-Files related until it premieres on July 25th. Could I be taking my rediscovered obsession too far? It’s entirely possible. I’d personally like to think I’m not [...]

I really want this poster. Badly. I can honestly say I haven’t been this excited about a movie in a very long time. I’m even more excited about this than The Dark Knight, and I’m pretty darn excited about that one.
I think the reason I’m so excited about this particular movie is because The X-Files [...]

The 1980s were a decade filled with cheesy horror films, outrageous teen comedies, and the so-called “Brat Pack.” Moving Violations involved none of those. Moving Violations was very much in the vein of Police Academy, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise since those responsible for that screwball comedy were also responsible for this [...]

Dee and I managed to score tickets to an opening day showing of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (thanks for thinking ahead, Dee) and found ourselves immersed once again the world of Indiana Jones.
Now, storyline is not my thing to critique, but I’m a special effects and action glutton. Glutton, I [...]
