As the first few 2013 movies get released onto Blu Ray, this week I was provided with a feast of quality entertainment to sink my teeth into. No January dung-pile titles to be found here at all, and one that even completely turned out to be the opposite of what I was expecting from it. More from that later, and since my…

Well, yes.  Yes they can.  But the real question is: will they?  Mass Effect 2 was a brilliant game and is the best game I've ever played.  It was NEARLY faultless and somehow made the original Mass Effect look mediocre.  Now, Mass Effect 3 has the unfortunate task of trying to improve on a near-perfect game and the only way for people not to say "it's exactly the same as Mass Effect 2" is to make it 100% perfect.  I will provide BioWare with a list of problems that I encountered with Mass…

It was a gloomy, damp Saturday night, and what else was I supposed to do?

I went to the movies and noticed that I had only options. I had to watch were either this, or a weird Chinese documentary about Buddhist monks. Hmm, psychopathic killers, or monks...?

Anyways, as hesitant as I was, I was pretty damn bored, and anything that had any sort of entertainment value would have cheered me up.

It wasn't horrible. In fact, it wasn't bad. But it's not fantastic, let me tell you. It's… Continue

It is a 90's film that is overdue. The cast did a good job with the film and they all bring something that makes you question each of them in their actions. The cinematography and the editing was just fine, but I thought that the biggest fault with the film came with the last act of the picture.



It kinda felt a bit like a cheat and it just didn't seem smooth. Even though they do build up mythos for the audience, you just feel like you just go… Continue

Last weekend proved to be something of a dissapointment at the box office, with Judd Apatow's lastest flick, Funny People, proving to be underwhelming with both critics and audiences, grossing $22.6 million, far below Apatow's previous flick, Knocked Up, intake of 30 million a few years back. The whole weekend proved to be just as underwhelming, with the total box office intake decreasing 18% from last week. Hopefully, this weekend will prove to change the dry spill with the latest summer… Continue

May is only a week away and on May 1st Hollywood is going to kick starts what I’ve been calling science fiction month. We got the 3D human invasion film Battle for Terra coming out on may first, may 8th we get the new Star Trek movie which Carlyle says is “better then sex”, and May ends with a bang when the new Terminator Salvation come out on the 22. Three good looking sci-fi movies in one month, for a science fiction geek like me this is Christmas in May. With this in mind I thought it be fun… Continue
