I took Mum to see ‘Avatar’ yesterday because I wanted her to be able to see the wonder of it in 3D. I just don’t feel that it will be the same in 2D especially not in 2D on a small screen. It’d be like trying to use shrink tube terminals to do an oil [...]

I can’t really say I used to be a hardcore Trekkie because I don’t think it really ever went away it was just muted due to lack of funding and lack of decent Trek things going on.
When we were in England I had a wall screen poster that looked like the layout of the Enterprise-D [...]

I have a really hard time coming up with gifts for people, in particular my husband. I know that he likes movies and video games, but a lot of the time I don’t want to get him something “so generic” as a video game when they’re fairly common and don’t feel so personal as something [...]

I haven’t had much time to chill lately, and what time I’ve had off I’ve taken advantage of to catch up on certain things that I like to watch. One movie that we’ve been recommended by a friend was “REPO: The Genetic Opera” at first I wasn’t sure that it would be to my tastes. [...]

As much as I hate to admit it; really needed the time off today and as crappy as our finances seem we figured that we could spring the $15 for a movie so long as we ate at home before we went and I’m really glad that we did go.
We saw the new “Fast & [...]

There are certain movies that I’ve avoided in my time because I see the previous and I think they look juvenile and assinine. Some times I’m right about this, but other times I’m happy to be proven wrong. EuroTrip was one such movie. I didn’t see it in theaters and it wasn’t until last night [...]

I’m really looking forward to the Watchmen movie that’s hopefully coming out on the 6th of March. When I first saw the Trailer for it before we saw “Quantum Of Solace” I was intrigued, but I can say that I had honestly never heard of the comic before I saw the trailer.
My husband purchased the [...]

It’s been a bit of an event round here because we got to see two movies in the past couple of days because my in-laws watched the munchkin while we went out with my brother in law and his son. We saw “The Spirit” and “Valkyrie” both of which were really good but for different [...]

I was looking up some things about something else and stumbled across some Half Blood Prince Production Photos, which are really nifty.
I’ve been flicking through them for the past few minutes. I was disappointed with the Order of the Phoenix movie, so I’m hoping that this next one is better.
