I snagged tickets to go see Spring Awakening when the national tour rolled through the Kennedy Center. I will first admit that I paid little attention to the show when it was first released back in 2006. I think some of this was because much of what I read during this time was about how […]
All I heard for weeks on end was that The Hangover was the best comedy of the decade. Friends of mine on Facebook were ribbing me for not having seen it on opening weekend and even more stupid for waiting weeks and weeks to check it out. Well, jackoffs, I saw it. And I have […]
I miss rock climbing. Damn, I was good at it, and maybe I still am. Who knows, maybe it’s like riding a bike. I’ve never camped before, not once, but watching movies like Blindsight makes me think it could be really fun. Especially if there was a goal like the summit of Mount Everest at […]
It’s amazing how good going to the movies feels when you realize you have not been in a really long time. Sure, there are tons of movies out right now that I really do want to see, but I’ve just not had the time and so I have been making do with massive Netflix viewings. […]
If nothing else, you should see this movie because rarely do you get to see a female-dominated story that has nothing to do with 27 bridesmaid dresses, Julia Roberts, teen pregnancy or trying to fall in love with the guy who is your best friend and you two just didn’t know that it was love […]
As many of you know, I write a weekly video game column reviewing the latest releases across all the platforms. Well, Kelly and others were saying it’s stupid that I don’t promote myself and the column in this space, so here we go. I am going to make a point to start passing along links […]
Beyond just reviewing the movies I see, I am sometimes compelled to tell this audience that a movie is so important that you darn-near need to drop what you are doing and watch it. Dear Zachary is that kind of movie. And it’s such a good movie that I don’t even want to discuss all […]
It was a movie-filled weekend for me. Luke was in town, needing the escape from Lexington. The weather was pretty crummy this weekend (and for the last month, as well), so after grubbing down a burger and a few beers we went and checked out a movie. Then Sunday night the goddess divine and I […]
Being a fan of Kevin Smith films has never been hard for me. Some people grew up on certain musicians and cultural lightning rods. One of mine was certain Clerks and all the other subsequent films Smith made. Chasing Amy was the perfect (if not refined) date movie and its still great to see Ben […]
It’s not that W. was a bad movie. Yes, I spent the first 30 minutes (and intermittently the rest of the way) through the film with my head in my hands, wondering for the 3 bagillionth time how Americans could have elected this numbskull to the office of president. Granted, this was a pseudo-fictionalized version […]
