On Saturday afternoon, Courtney and I went on a date “night”, to go and see Date Night.  Sometimes afternoons are just easier, for us and our babysitter, Aunt Sami, what with her having a “life,” whatever that is.  Anyway, to be totally honest, we didn’t have the highest expectations going in, mainly because Steve Carell [...]

So some of you may have already heard about it, but there’s this new movie called Avatar, and Courtney and I just saw it. Well, OK fine, it’s not that new. And yeah, odds are pretty good that you’ve already seen it, what with everyone on planet Earth having already seen it at [...]

So over the past few weeks, while Eli has been napping, Courtney and I have gotten to catch up on a few movies. Here are a few of my thoughts on these flicks:
Zombieland: Really well done and funny zombie movie.  Jesse Eisenberg always seems to be doing a Michael Cera impression, but it works for [...]

As I have mentioned before, I was a huge fan of The State when it was on MTV in the 90’s. I thought the show was brilliant and hysterical, and I have quoted lines from various skits throughout the years. As the 10 men and 1 woman in the group had moved on [...]

I enjoyed the mystery of Maryann and Texas stories, but it was a shame they were so disconnected
Great introductions sure to reappear: the telepathic hotel bellhop and Sookie’s cousin who hangs with the Queen
Hoyt and Jessica are [...]

For some reason, a while back I decided to watch all of the James Bond movies. I’ve seen all of the Pierce Brosnan movies and the two new Daniel Craig films, but I was pretty sure I’d only seen bits and pieces of the older ones. Well, after watching the first seven (5 [...]

After weeks of missing out on a lot of summer flicks we were told we HAD to see (The Hangover, we’ll get to you, eventually), the missus and I finally went to see Pixar’s latest flick, Up. Now I’m a pretty huge fan of all of the Pixar movies, and I went particularly ga-ga [...]

Let me start off by saying that I did enjoy Terminator Salvation – it was a hell of a lot better than T3 (not that that’s saying much) but over all it was a fun movie and it leaves the franchise room to grow. But I can’t help but thinking that the movie could [...]

Super fast recap of the non-Lost season finales of the year:
Smallville – Super disappointing battle between Clark and Doomsday. They built up all season for 1 minute of a fight? And Jimmy Olsen wasn’t thew real Jimmy Olsen? Lame. And Chloe didn’t know that her husband had a brother? And [...]
