The Spawn, pointing at a picture: I want to watch this movie. Me: Episode I? You want to watch Episode 1? The Spawn: Yes. Me: Okay, let me find the disc. Me, searching: Oooh Ghostbusters! Now that’s a good movie! The Spawn: I haven’t watched that movie. Me: But it’s a good movie. You’d...
I played the first four levels of an Orc mage on a live stream, shown above on a video replay. Mages are fun. Orcs are fun. But the Valley of Trials isn’t changed enough to be very exciting.
Blockbuster tells Hollywood studios it’s preparing for mid-September bankruptcy | Company Town | Los Angeles Times. So there’s the news and it made me happy. Why? I’m not sure. I used to be a big Blockbuster customer. I spent many a fun date night with whoever the significant other was at the time, browsing...
… and I’m not entirely sure why. Note: If you haven’t figured out by the whole “ending” part in the title, this post is going to contain lots of spoilers. You have been warned. But really … duh. Andy gets the job she wanted with Miranda’s help, so it’s not like a huge sacrifice...
Tuesday has a lot of fun TV of both the unscripted and scripted kinds now that both Deadliest Catch and Glee are back. I don’t have time to watch it all after The Spawn goes to bed and last night American Idol lost out on my viewership until I am able to watch the...
Lying and anger and drama, oh my! Generally speaking, this season’s inter-team cooperation continued this week with two notable exceptions. The Red Team continued their game playing and the Green Team continued their isolationist-anger mentality. Because the Red Team won immunity and the power to give other teams obstacles, Green Team went into full-on...
I am a huge Biggest Loser fan. The basic principles they teach on the show are exactly what unhealthy people need to hear. And the stories of these grossly overweight people overcoming their mental issues to become athletes is beyond inspiring. The only thing I don’t like is the backstabbing. The crazy bitch from...
I am not a late show kind of TV viewer. But after Conan’s statement today regarding the NBC Tonight Show scheduling debacle, I made sure to record tonight’s show. I was not disappointed. Conan’s monologue was funny, clever and made fun of NBC at every turn. I was also very pleased, though not at...
I have been a big fan of Entertainment Weekly for years and even though paper is definitely out, I am currently subscribing to their magazine. They are funny, well written and don’t seem to take themselves too seriously. They also employ one of my fave writers: Whitney Pastorek. But I will not be re-subscribing...
I’m a pretty big fan of cooking reality shows. My favorite is Top Chef, by far, but I recently have been watching this year’s The Next Food Network Star. I love that show because they aren’t about the drama and keeping contestants around for drama-related ratings. They want the best TV personality and they...
The Spawn ran around and exhausted the grandparents yesterday while The Spousal Unit and I went to see Star Trek at the Muvico theater in Thousand Oaks. Now, I’m a huge Star Trek fan (particularly original and TNG) and a bit of a crabby purist in general. I had very high expectations for the...
I’m bummed. The Roq of the 80s video page is either gone or not working today. But here’s the 80s video of the day anyway.
