Post-Graduation Week

I graduated last week — Thursday, May 10. It was one of the most boring experiences of my life. I don’t even remember half the ceremony. I may have fell asleep a few times. I happened not to sleep the night before. I was just so wired. But, when [...]

My Christmas Gifts

Okay, so I’m a few days late on blogging. I was supposed to be back on here Tuesday listing out all the wonderful Christmas gifts that I got. But, I’m simply lazy. I’ve spent the last three days playing with my gifts as opposed to telling the world about them.
I will say [...]

Superman Returns

I was not overly impressed.
With that said, it was a good movie. Maybe the hype I’ve been hearing since before the movie hit theaters had built it up too much.
Superman/Clark Kent (Brandon Routh) returns after a five-year search for his home planet. He comes home to find Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth) with a [...]

Accepted

Yes, another college movie about partying and all the fun you’ll have when you’re there.
But, is there something more? I would go as far as saying there is. While, for the most part, this is another rehash of the onslaught of college movies that we’ve seen for the past five years, this movie [...]

Junebug

I am in awe of Amy Adams’ performace in director Phil Morrison’s take on the South. She played the perfect southern girl. She talked a lot (probably making up for more than half the film’s dialogue), but she did it right.
Usually, when someone recommends a film to me and say it is a [...]

Empire Falls

So, I finally caved and bought the DVD version of Empire Falls based off Richard Ruso’s novel. And the first thing I have to say is that it was good. Not as good as the novel, but still good. I actually didn’t know that Russo himself had written the screenplay. [...]

Fall TV On DVD

Fall TV is upon us. For those of you like me that means TV on DVD, probably the greatest invention in my lifetime. Forget the future when we’ll all be in flying cars with no need for gas and have robotic maids. TV on DVD is and will forever be [warning: cliché] [...]

6 Billion Lunatics

I was looking around the Net for some Buffy quotes to add to my facebook profile the other day. I had completely forgot about one the greatest quotes ever from Buffy. This was from Season 5. I forgot which episode.

Glory: Funny. ‘Cause I look around at this world you’re so [...]

Coke, Pepsi, Vinyl, And The DVD Format War

I take a look at my current DVD collection. It has now grown big enough to warrant a third DVD rack. In fact, it is so big that I have a continually updated list on my website to keep track of the number. I now have 193 films on [...]

Desperate Housewives

I have yet another television series on DVD to add to my collection, Desperate Housewives. That’s one more for the DVD Collection. I know, I shouldn’t have spent the money. But it was just sitting there on the shelf at Wal-Mart, and I just had to buy it. That’s [...]
