Links From The Blogroll
Hey, everybody. Haven’t been around much to post here, mostly because I haven’t seen any movies or played any new video games to review. ;) That should change this weekend. What I would like to do is highlight some of the newer additions to my blogroll and give some examples as to why you should…

Movie Review – TRON: Legacy
I caught a 3D showing of TRON: Legacy this weekend, and I love it. I might just be their ideal movie-goer. I did see the original TRON at some point, far enough back that I watched it on one of these bad boys. My Grandfather liked to buy wacky things at auctions, and came home with a…

Lightning Movie Review – Tangled
We took the kids to see Tangled this weekend, and Mattie in particular LOVED IT. As in, during the moving saying ‘Mommy I WUV DIS MOVIE!’, and having to come over and sit on my lap so she could tell me the same thing directly. Okay, and get direct access to more popcorn. I thought…

Lightning Movie Review – Megamind
Saw this over the weekend with the kids – it was a solid kids movie, kept my 7 year old and 2.5 year old entertained while keeping a smile on my face throughout. Didn’t generate huge laughs or anything, but I enjoyed it and would see it again. Despicable Me wins out for me in…

Movie Review – Despicable Me
I took Thomas and Mattie to see this on Saturday, and we all enjoyed it quite a bit. Well, Mattie was more interested in popcorn and changing seats, but that’s why we go to the kid-friendly showing in the morning. ;) The story is about Gru, a super-villain comfortable in his solitary life until a…

Movie Review: Toy Story 3
What? Oh hi, didn’t see you there…huh? No, I have something in my eye *sniff* that’s all. It’s a movie about toys for crying out loud! Uh, crying is a bad choice of words… The whole family went to see Toy Story 3 this weekend, and of course we all loved it. Plenty of action,…

Movie Review: The A-Team
I went and saw The A-Team last night, and I have to say I enjoyed myself. It was exactly what I expected, nothing more, nothing less. It had plenty of nods to the series, while modernizing it and making it different enough that you didn’t feel like you’d seen it all before. Glad I went. …

Movie Review: The Book of Eli
I saw The Book of Eli on Sunday, and enjoyed it. However, I wasn’t planning on reviewing it officially until I read this story, that requires an FJM-style takedown. I will have a go at that after the jump, as there will be MASSIVE SPOILERS.

Movie Review – Ponyo
First, a story. I had been exposed to Anime only sparingly as a kid, mostly Voltron, Tranzor-Z (Boob missiles!) and later, Ronin Warriors. I enjoyed them, but nothing really made me go out and seek more. Oh, and I caught the super-hyped showing of Akira on the Sci-Fi channel, which didn’t help. My Miyazaki fandom…

Movie Review: Star Trek (2009)
I am writing this, in the interest of full disclosure, as a Trekkie who kind of fell away from Star Trek towards the end of Voyager, and missed pretty much all of Enterprise. Seems pretty common, actually, from the guys I went to see the movie with. Word of caution: Here there may be spoilers…

Hulk SMASH
I went to see The Incredible Hulk over the weekend (twice, in fact). I enjoyed it quite a bit, although Iron Man is still my movie of the year so far. I only read Hulk comics when I got ’em in the multipacks I bought, but I enjoyed what I read of Peter David’s run.…
