February 26th, 2009 No Comments

Get out tonight to see it in 3D. Neil Gaiman’s twitter reminded me today that the Jonas Bros in 3D is likely to take over all the  3D capable screens at a theatre near you tomorrow. You owe it to yourself not to miss this in 3D as it’s one of the few movies where [...]

You know, Heath was great and all but…

30 Rock – St. Valentine’s Day

February 13th, 2009 No Comments

As the follow up to the brilliant “Generalissimo” from last week, “St. Valentine’s Day” had a lot to live up to. While it didn’t quite hit that high water mark it still managed to make me nearly do a spit take a few times. Liz and her hot-as-a-cartoon-pilot new flame Dr. Baird (Jon Hamm from [...]

In the words of Frou Frou the talking cat

February 10th, 2009 No Comments

There’s no place like home…       There are varying degrees of culture shock that one gets upon moving away from one’s birthplace for the first time. Maybe you moved to Europe for school and you’re learning a new language (or multiple new languages). Perhaps you went to Australia for a year to find [...]
