As a Netflix customer, I often enjoyed being able to sign on to Netflix on my lunch break and watch TV shows from their “Watch Instantly” service. Unfortunately, I had to load it up on my virtual machine that runs XP because due to DRM restrictions, Netflix was unable to offer Mac users the service…
New Fast & Furious Comes Out Summer 2009
When The Fast and the Furious came out several years ago, I thought how hilariously silly it all was, even if the action was terribly enjoyable. Face it, people love fast cars, big explosions, gun fights, and this series has all of that. Minus good acting. But hey, you don’t really go see movies like…
TrailerAddict Leaks Wolverine Movie Trailer
Website TrailerAddict leaked the trailer footage shown at ComicCon of the new Marvel film X-Men Origins: Wolverine, that’s centered around popular Marvel comics X-Men character Wolverine, with some Sabretooth and Strider and Gambit action, it would seem.

British Knights are Back!
The shoes that every kid used to nag his parents over when I was a child, British Knights (or BK) were discontinued, sometime shortly after the likes of MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice put down the microphone in the ’90s. I don’t know the exact date or time, but they seemed to fade out in…
Hot Date: Olive Garden and Baby Mama
Last night I had a hot date with my girl. I showed up at her place and I was dressed up to try and look good for her, but it was pretty irrelevant next to the sight I saw when she opened the front door. She was gorgeous! She wore this little black dress she…
Well, I Was Going to Rent Juno
I thought the trailers for “Juno” made it look pretty good, but then I read this post over at Cracked.com, and while hilarious, makes me think I might not enjoy it. (Warning, some adult language on that linked site) Indie films are often pretty enjoyable productions, and can even be thought-provoking works of art. And…
iMovie Festival 2008
Last night I attended the first annual iMovie Festival at the university at which I am employed. It’s not the first ever held, just the first one here. I have to say, it was pretty enjoyable. I was expecting a series of more and more horrible films, and maybe a few shining-star examples that would…
