A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Fearless Oscar Predictions
OSCAR. IS. HERE. (ALMOST).
Personally, I’ll be wearing a Jean Christian Penney (pronounced Penn-AY) suit for the red carpet this Sunday, and drinking only the finest boxed wine. It’s a night where all of our favorite stars get dressed up and get to be self-important smug people and get recognized for how well they can be [...]
Get Fired Up: March 2010
You know what they say about March: “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.” (TWILIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!)
First and probably only Twilight reference, ramblers. March is a great month. I have mixed emotions about March. First, it’s still cold, then it’s like kinda warm sometimes, but never like realllllllllllly warm enough to make you feel [...]
Get Fired Up For: NOVEMBER!
It has been a ridiculously long time since I threw one of these at you. I apologize, I know you blindly lead me and for too long I’ve not been leading you anywhere. Well I’m back bootlickers (found that synonym on the interwebs) to show you what’s what for the month ahead in pop culture.

my life is not a movie or maybe…
For those of you who know me and now for those of you who don’t I bare a striking (most say) resemblance to the actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. It was a great lot early on as he rose to tv superstardom as Tommy on 3rd Rock From the Sun and teenage girls fawned after his baby [...]

Slew of Reviews: Transformers 2, Adventureland, The Hurt Locker, and HP6
I’ve recently watched a whole slew of movies and have some reviews for you all. There is a wide range of movies here so there should be something for everyone.
I’ll start and end with two of the summer’s biggest blockbusters and sandwiched in between will be two smaller films with wide reach.
Transformers 2I went in [...]
EXCLUSIVE: My Interview with NPH
Neil Patrick Harris has just been named as the host for the Emmys. He’s also been the go-to star of one of TV’s best comedies How I Met Your Mother. His story has to be one of the most amazing comeback stories of all time. He’s currently filming a movie in the city in which [...]
pop culture institutions: who’s yours?
I was speaking with a friend of mine a few weeks ago and stumbled upon this:Now what that is, is a shot of a t-shirt of many of Bill Murray’s countless classic characters. Sweet alliteration.
Then last week I was watching AMC and it was a Bill Murray-a-thon featuring the Ghostbusters movies, Caddyshack, and Stripes. In [...]
5 for indy 5: give mutt a chance
Indiana Jones is an American cinema icon. He’s an archetype which other heroes have been based because of his mix of derring-do, moxie, and unflappable cool. The first 3 movies are undeniably some of, if not THE, best adventure movies ever made. Last year a mildly entertaining, shiny addition was made to the canon, but [...]
drag me to hell? yes, please, well, the movie anyways.
Today I took in Drag Me To Hell, the long-awaited return to horror for Director Sam Raimi. It’s an original film that he wrote with his brother, Ivan. Let me out myself as a fan of Raimi’s earlier horror productions, specifically the Evil Dead “trilogy.” The movies are scary and funny which makes for a [...]
