I’m not kidding. I mean, don’t get me wrong. I know that it can’t happen, and I actually love Ben Affleck being casted (as opposed to anyone else on the list of possible people), but I started marathoning Grey’s Anatomy after running out of things to obsess over on Netflix, […]

SDCC 2013: Breaking Bad Fan Appreciation Party
I won a Twitter contest to get into the Breaking Bad Fan Appreciation Party at San Diego Comic Con 2013. You had to be one of the first sixty people to tweet using the hashtag #BreakingBadCC. Originally, I had been put on an alternates list, but about a week before […]
"The Wolverine" Does Better Than His Origins
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7kdUy5_WlI] I’ll admit it now, before going to this movie, I had no real excitement for it. Could it be because his origins story was so disappointing? Maybe.

"Pacific Rim" Will Knock You Out of the Water
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5guMumPFBag] I don’t often have many issues with movies. I can normally see the good parts of a movie and see the positive without minding too much about the flaws. But I knew, I knew that I would have to be biased with Pacific Rim, because I have been excited […]
