When "looper" was first announced, there was a myriad of reactions from the "this could be awesome" to the "headscratching migraine". Lets be fair here, is sending people back from the future to get killed in the past so you can avoid leaving a trail the best use of time travel? Seems like a lot of work for something easily…

             When I was first read an article describing this movie I thought it was interesting. It felt like a fresh take on a old idea which is the new style these days. We got a female Mowgli having a drink with Hansel and Gretel who kills witches and they trade stakes for crossbows with Pinocchio the vampire killer and he travels with Peter Pan as child soldiers in WW2. …

               Resident Evil was once considered the daddy of Survival horror and become the crown jewel of Capcom, right next to Megaman and street fighter. It might not have aged well, trading its spooky ambiance for the open air of an FPS but its still kicking. Even if Hollywood has made a successful series of movies, quality in question, Capcom has made their own set…

          Alphas refers to a group of people that have special skills bordering on the preternatural, like superpowers but more grounded. By grounded I mean each ability seen on the show is possible to have as they are based on pre-existing conditions albeit exaggerated.

        The show centers on this group…

            Tron was a cult hit back in the 80's and caught the imagination of people so much that everyone was clamoring for more so much they started to do more with computers with stories. They even did a buddy cop show with a FBI agent teaming up with a AI to hunt crime.

            Disney took a while to actually make a sequel as the cost of making Tron was immense so they…

              Now this movie is a perfect example of what low brow Sci-FI can be. Low Brow Sci-Fi was a term I coined when hearing this description of what SCI-FI is. One writer described it as " A world just like ours with one new thing" and thats completely true in this case. Even thought this world has a more advanced version of the internet that is literally the center on all life on…

         To catch people up, Alcatraz is a show about a FBI task force devoted to capturing escape convicts from Alcatraz prison. The main hook is these inmates have reappeared in the modern-day, untouched by time since their disappearance in 1963.

              Once in a blue moon some story comes to your attention that makes you think of something else and you think that said story is gonna be less than spectacular, but it manages to win you over anyway. That describes me reading the first 6 issues of this series and now I'm writing this blog to tell you why its so awesome.

           Lost was a show about a group of airplane passengers trapped on a mysterious island in the middle of nowhere and chronicle their attempts at getting off the island. It became so much more as this mysterious island was revealed to be home of misplaced polar bears and time travel.

            Most times, new movies or tv shows and even comics get green-lighted because they take advantage of particular trend in pop culture. An example of this would be one day, you are flipping thru channels and you notice an abundance of shows about vampires who happen to be in high school. Or you look and realize that Hollywood has eight different…

                     Napoleon Dynamite was this weird movie that somehow clicked with a ton of people, finding fans in all walks of life from the average Joe to cultured film aficionado. It was the cult film and then some which means that the decision to make it into a cartoon seems logical.

             I did not see the original film yet so I'm…

    This show is a spin off to the hit show Bones, and its main character is Walter Sherman (played by Geoff Stults)who is a former military man with the ability to find anything. Its not technically supernatural as his brain suffered damage that resulted in him being able to make connections that no one else can. Kids, you will not get the same result so do not attempt this at…

      A problem with growing up today is that your generation will be always known as the reboot generation. Because the higher ups in entertainment are basically taking any IP from the old days and bringing it back to cash in on the old audience and make a new one. Those can be anything from the Green Hornet which appeared in the 1930's to Buffy the vampire slayer which…

              Interestingly enough, I got into Tekken while watching two dudes at my anime club play Tekken 6 and saw the live action movie in May. It was Bad Fighting Game movie time till the end of the semester. I'm pretty sure we had nothing better to do than watch all of Hollywood's video game failures and make fun of them. Ehh, it was a slow news week.

       Being cool is something we all can look for and judge for ourselves but its something we cant normally describe in detail.  Most people think being cool is going against the trends and being unique which is partially true. You do need to have a little confidence in yourself to sell the cool factor. If you have to worry about being cool and put effort into it, than you…
