Happy New Year, everyone!

The past few weeks I've been enjoying periodic bouts of internet-free time, so I haven't been around nearly as much. The next few days should slow down (which will make me so incredibly happy) and I should be able to catch up on a few things around then ( Read more... )

This is possibly the shortest, most accurate movie review I will ever post.

( The Expendables )

The day before yesterday I sat down and watched Chris Nolan’s Memento. I promised merrytook92 I’d review it for her, so here it is ( Read more... )

Right. So. I went and saw Inception yesterday, and it..well, on the whole it was fabulous. I’d go again in a heartbeat. And probably again after that ( Read more... )

This may change (especially as I have been invited to a digital showing sometime this week), but I doubt my thoughts will ( Read more... )

So, like I promised, I'm back with a fuller review for Disctrict 9. I would have posted one last night, but given what time it was and the rate at which I get my thoughts out, I figured it would probably be best if I waited until I could actually think coherently, unless you guys really wanted a review that only consisted of “dfjldsufdsj THIS ( Read more... )

With the major exception of the X-files, I cannot think of a ( Read more... )
