DVD Spotlight: Insomnia

On October 5, 2009 By

We all know Christopher Nolan’s name by now. He’s the man who brought us the hit films Batman Begins, The Prestige, and the Dark Knight. He has become a major player in the filmmaking game, as he has not yet made a bad film. So for today’s DVD Spotlight (where I will be highlighting films [...]

2009 has been a big drag in terms of entertainment. It seems like there hasn’t been a genuinely good movie come out that audiences could get truly excited about. Well, now we have Zombieland, and it is AWESOME.

Zombieland, as the name implies, takes place in a time when the world has become over run [...]

Clerks 2 DVD

On September 30, 2009 By

I have just recently watched the first Clerks film, the debut of director Kevin Smith. It’s kind of a miniature right of passage for an aspiring filmmaker, slacker, or popculture junkie to see the film, and I happen to fall into all three of those categories. I had felt that cutting off the View Askewniverse [...]

Blade Runner: Why it’s a fave.

On September 21, 2009 By

I’ve never felt the need to read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Phillip K. Dick. I’m not saying it isn’t a good book, in fact everything I’ve heard about it says it’s brilliant. But I don’t feel the need to read it. One of my favorite films is Blade Runner, which is said [...]

Spaced: My Favorite TV Show EVER

On September 14, 2009 By

Before there was Hot Fuzz or Shaun of the Dead, there was Spaced. Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright were all working on this comedy series for the BBC, and I have to say that it is my absolute favorite TV show ever. Spaced Stars Simon Pegg and Jessica Hynes as Tim Bisley and [...]
