Long have I been a Tolkien fan. I absolutely love high fantasy. Some people can’t get into a completely new world and completely new rules and it doesn’t work for them, but it totally does for me. I love the extensive detail that Tolkien put into his universe, and it […]
Man of Steel and Into Darkness Posters: Kal-El In Shackles And Sherlock In Shambles
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_VRP5q1Zow] Within 24 hours of Star Trek’s new poster of Into Darkness (seen below), a new poster of the projected 2013 summer blockbuster Man of Steel comes out. It shows our favorite Kryptonian bound in irons and escorted by a SWAT team, I really hope those have some kryptonite laced […]
Game of Thrones Season 3 In Production
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2yj0e0r_yLI#!] The Game of Thrones fandom is coming in on the home stretch, and yet March still seems so far. Season three will come with a barrage of new characters and new plots. The production video shows the show expanding even further and the producers don’t seem afraid to take […]
Therese’s Trailer Thursdays!
So I’m implementing Trailer Thursdays, where I’ll show you guys all the awesome trailers that have gone out over the weeks and try and dish up any news on them. Given that I’m a slave to alliteration, this title is purely decorative and they might not actually go up every […]
Forward Unto Dawn, a pleasant surprise; Blood and Chrome, a foreboding disappointment
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfJVgXBfSH8] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pT79x4qM4FE] There are two things you need to know about me before reading this article. One: I’m not ashamed to say that I am in a love affair with Battlestar Galactica. It started when I was a Freshman in high school and has been ongoing. I am ashamed to say […]
Into the Foray of Comic Con
So in the Spring of 2013 (assuming we don’t die this December), San Diego’s Comic Convention will be selling tickets! Every summer in July, San Diego hosts what has to be the nerdiest and most intensely packed 4 days ever, or maybe 5 if you include the Wednesday preview night. […]
An Adventure to Find the Last Twinkie
Let me start this off by saying, when we found out Hostess had gone out of business, Jane and I were in the car with my best friend Bethany, and we had just gotten back from a Hitchcock promotional cocktail party and were ready to go home. But when I […]
Twilight affirms that violence makes vampires fun
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0JPE202szI] I think most people are glad that Twilight is over, myself included. Personally, it wasn’t even because of the actual series. I have read the first three of the Twilight books, and I did enjoy them when I read them when I was in middle school and I enjoyed […]
Skyfall is not an “action packed” movie, but it is an awesome espionage film.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kw1UVovByw] It doesn’t lack explosions, but Skyfall is not a classic action movie. You can’t sit there, slurping your drink, waiting for people to fight and shoot at each other. Growing with the modern age, James Bond is a heavily developed character relying heavier on his own personality and skills rather than […]
Dreamworks’ Rise of the Guardians
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2koEFlVqfc] So, today I got to go to an advanced screening of Dreamworks’ new movie Rise of the Guardians. Let me just say, that I am a sucker for the holiday season. I absolutely love it when things get sparkly with lights and people go home to their families. Even […]
