  • Time Warner Raising Rates…Fight Back!

    Many of you have probably heard by now, TWC is raising rates, as much as 12% depending on what you have. You can point straight at crap like the recent Fox nearly being pulled due to pricing negotiations running right up to the deadline, and (locally) the Channel 4 craziness. So what can men do…

  • 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…

  • Very Important Question!

    [poll id=”13″] I’ve been thinking about this, as my son slowly but surely gets exposed to Star Wars thanks to kids at school (and the very fun Lego Star Wars game we have). While I’m probably not showing him these any time soon, this is the sort of thing a geeky dad think about. So…

  • Lucas is Meddlesome

    Jeffrey Katzenberg, speaking to ComingSoon.net, revealed that Darth Lucas is ‘investing in technology’ to turn the Star Wars movies 3D. My favorite bit: Katzenberg remarked in the interview that Lucas “isn’t going to put a product out, I think, that isn’t anything other than first rate.” Yeah, EP1 was first rate, all right. UGH.

  • 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.…

  • Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

    I went to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull last night. I thought it was pretty good, say B- or C+ grade-wise. I enjoyed it, and don’t feel as if it was a waste of money, which is good considering how much it costs to go to a movie nowadays. There…

  • For the Good of the World: Cadbury VS Boll

    In a fit of awesomeness, Cadbury Adams’ Stride brand gum has thrown it’s support behind the Stop Uwe Boll effort. Movie City indie has the details. On April 4, 2008, Uwe Boll remarked to legendary horror site FearNet that he’d consider acquiescing to his critics and abandoning making films in this genre if an online…

  • Iron Man

    Uh, wow! AWESOME MOVIE!!! Great dialogue, great actors, characters that react the way real people would, super-great comic action! I can’t wait to see it again, and then again. And then once more. CHEESEBURGER FIRST!

  • Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

    I should probably subtitle this “I’m what’s wrong with American filmgoers” but I loved this movie. The characters progressed from where they were in the first film, with the Human Torch surprising the heck out of me at the end. I did not think Sue was over the top as far as her bridal freakouts…

  • Warner Bros. to Canada: You Suck!

    Canada will no longer get advanced screenings of Warner Bros. movies, stating that 70 percent of their movies from the past 18 months were pirated in the Frozen North. It is currently not a criminal offense there to take your camcorder in to record a movie for ‘personal use’. President Bush wanted to send in…
