PR Street Team: Photos From the Set of Transformers 3
How cool! Another PR Street Team post. Frankly, I thought that I kind of figured I’d never have another one. Not the case though! My friend Chris Sacco was in Chicago recently for a wedding and due to the sometimes nightmarish nature of travel, he was stuck there for another day. Unfortunate for him. Lucky [...]
A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Like A Bad Habit
From the mind of Jim Ryan (BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!), comes this week’s Matter. He brought it up a few weeks ago during another topic and I put it on the back burner until now, but now it’s unleashed like the ravenous beast it is! (I hope.) So at times in our life we grow up (Science) and [...]
Toy Stories: Best Trilogy Ever?
A wise old sage once said “Three is a magic number.” Well in regards to movie trilogies, three is more often a mixed bag. Trilogies have become a very popular storytelling method for movie makers. Taking a story and playing it out over three movies allows for more complex and intricate storytelling and more in-depth [...]
PR Street Team: Accidentally on the set of The Walking Dead
Well, Pop Ramblings has its first accidental street team. Two of my sister’s friends were in the ATL recently and caught some of the undead from AMC’s forthcoming The Walking Dead. Luckily, they snapped some photos, so without further ado, ladies and gents, here’s your zombies: So thanks much to Claire and Meredith, the first [...]
“You Can’t Piss On Hospitality”: My Attempt At A Dissection of Troll 2
I’d like to start off by just giving a brief introduction to the Troll 2 phenomenon to those who are unaware. Troll 2 is widely regarded as one of the worst movies ever made, if not THE worst. In recent years, it has become an overwhelming cult hit due to its AWESOMELY bad nature. It [...]
GET FIRED UP!: JUNE 2010
It’s about this time of the year when I remember how very hot my city gets. VERY HOT. To the point where simply walking to and from work would ideally involve a change of clothing, but rarely does. Take today for instance, I walked to work, leaving my house at about 7:30 in the morning [...]
A Matter of the Utmost Importance: The Summer Jams LP
So, this weekend is Memorial Day, which for some reason we still refer to as the “Unofficial Kick-Off To Summer,” when really it’s kind of been like common law married into being the “Official Kick-Off To Summer.” Right? Let’s just give Memorial Day it’s due. THAT combined with the fact that it’s been hotter than [...]
A Home on HUH? Island: It’s not a schooner, it’s a sailboat!
Episode recap in 150 words: Off the island, many characters’ lives are beginning to intersect. Locke and Sun’s injuries brought them both to the hospital where Jack works. Sawyer arrested Kate and Sayid. Desmond got Claire to go to a lawyer, who happens to be Ilana, that Jack was meeting to read over his and [...]
Monster Madness Tourney: Battle of Champions
Well, the big dance is almost over folks, but not before we pit the King of the Monsters vs. The Sticky Goo of the Blob. This matchup is between two gigantic monsters who have been stomping and occasionally rolling over the competition on a one way track of destiny toward each other. One is the [...]
A Home On Huh? Island: Special Delivery
Those of us who knew beforehand that this week’s episode was going to be a Jin/Sun flash-sideways expected the long-awaited reunion between the two. Alas, that still has not happened, but we got a juicy flash-sideways and some more info on Widmore nonetheless. The episode began with some of Widmore’s crew shooting Smocke’s entire camp [...]
