Long have I been a Tolkien fan. I absolutely love high fantasy. Some people can’t get into a completely new world and completely new rules and it doesn’t work for them, but it totally does for me. I love the extensive detail that Tolkien put into his universe, and it […]
Personally, I Wouldn’t Add the Collection to My Movie Collection But Hardcore Gore Fans Might Like It
[youtube=http://youtu.be/msSH5v6tK9k] I came to see the Collection as the only person in my group of five who had seen the original. While everyone else had low expectations of the movie and thought it would be like any other senseless slasher film, I had a lot of hope that it might […]
Hitchcock is delightful and quirky with darker elements lurking in the corner.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rQuRLERl6A?feature=player_detailpage&w=640&h=360] IMDB Link First and foremost, if you’re looking for a film that explains how Hitchcock directed Psycho or focuses on Psycho, then this is not it. You get insight into how the film was made and the delicious tension of just how important the movie was to Hitchcock’s […]
You’re Probably About To Revoke Any and All of My Credibility But I Really Did Enjoy the Selection
I did not go into this book intending to like it. In fact, I think that I was judging it a bit unfairly before I even began and I approached it harshly when I first started reading it. I regret that now. I regret not letting myself just enjoy the […]
Twilight affirms that violence makes vampires fun
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0JPE202szI] I think most people are glad that Twilight is over, myself included. Personally, it wasn’t even because of the actual series. I have read the first three of the Twilight books, and I did enjoy them when I read them when I was in middle school and I enjoyed […]

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGoe7BdGdlg] Wolverines! I don’t know how many fans of the original Red Dawn (1984) there are reading this so if you haven’t seen it before believe me when I tell you that there are few more epic movies from the 1980s than this anti-communist action movie. Then go to Netflix […]
Dreamworks’ Rise of the Guardians
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2koEFlVqfc] So, today I got to go to an advanced screening of Dreamworks’ new movie Rise of the Guardians. Let me just say, that I am a sucker for the holiday season. I absolutely love it when things get sparkly with lights and people go home to their families. Even […]
Every Day Book Review
For A, every day brings something new. A new home, a new family, a new body. In Every Day by well known young adult author David Levithan, every morning A wakes up in the body of someone the same age. I would say the similarities would end there but age […]
Allison Hewitt is Trapped (Audio) Book Review
Search for zombie novels on Amazon.com and you’ll get tons of responses. Properly published, self-published; erotic fiction and young adult fiction. It spans pretty much every target market with everyone trying to cash in on the hype. And let’s be real. There are some pretty awful zombie books out there. […]
The Bourne Legacy Movie Review
The Bourne Legacy (2012) Directed by Tony Gilroy Starring Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton It’s decent. I personally think Jeremy Renner and the cast’s acting held it together. I have been a huge fan of the Bourne franchise since The Bourne Identity in 2002 and when I heard […]
