I know that everyone’s probably seen these movies already (They were, after all, some of the biggest hits of the summer.), but now that some of these blockbusters are coming to iTunes, I have been able to catch up a bit (if you follow my blog, you should know that I’m always catching up with…

Fall TV 2015 – Week 1 New Shows
In keeping with this week where many season and series premieres have been so chock full of TV goodness that they needed to be split in two, I am also saving the new show premieres to be discussed in part two of my week one TV reviews! So here goes: Heroes Reborn I loved season one…
2015-2016 Fall TV preview
I love it when the TV networks put out trailers for the new fall shows that they’re planning to air. They come out just in time as the current seasons are ending, giving us TV fans something to look forward to over the summer hiatus. This year’s batch seems kind of mediocre (unfortunately) and nothing…

Oscar Schmoscar 2015
It’s Academy Awards time, and that means it’s once again time for me to weigh in with my ignorance and inability to appreciate an Oscar-worthy performance. If you’re like me, you’ll want to cram-watch a few more of the nominees in time to at least have an opinion for the awards next week. Let me…
2014 Blockbuster Movie Review Catch-up
Before the bell rings on 2014 and rings in 2015, I wanted to give my two cents on a few of the blockbuster movies that blew away the box office in 2014 (but I missed catching them at the theatres). Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel’s leap into space adventures had a US opening weekend of…
2014 TV Characters: Love and Hate
Some say that TV is going through a quality renaissance. That might be true, but unfortunately if you have enjoyed hard-edged shows like True Detective, Broadchurch, American Horror Story, or Breaking Bad for their wonderfully complex and messed-up characters, you won’t find any of those shows on my list. I tend to enjoy the lighter,…
Big Hero 6 – Movie Review
Big Hero 6 represents the true coming-together of Disney and Marvel universes (even moreso than being able to play The Hulk alongside snow-queen Elsa in the videogame world of Disney Infinity). Disney animators (with no small influence from their Pixar brethren) have taken an obscure Marvel Comics super-team and brought them to cute, plastic life…
Movie #19: Captain America: Winter Soldier
Even after his own first Captain America movie, followed by his major role in The Avengers, I still don’t really see Chris Evans as being a good fit for the title role. Don’t get me wrong, I think he is an awesome action star and leading man, but he just doesn’t really have that blonde,…
