  • What I’ve Been Doing 5 March 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    I don’t think it’s possible for you all to understand how pumped I am for baseball to come back this year. It’s been a long, hard offseason, but spring training is off the ground and I’m super pumped. Movies Higher Ground – Vera Farmiga (and her sister Taissa) stars in this intelligent movie about a […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 27 Feb 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    It was a hectic, busy weekend that resulted in me becoming an uncle. So glad that the delivery was ok, but now I’m crossing my fingers for everyone to get healthy soon. Movies Almost watched one this week! Didn’t though. TV Justified – The stuff with the organ thieves was awesome. Also the scenes with […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 13 Feb 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Big TV week for me. A lot of huge episodes and great acting made me a very happy viewer. Movies I was supposed to watch Hanna this weekend, but I never got around to it. TV Samurai Champloo – Turned out to be a show about transition and the end of things. About an age […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 6 Feb 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Everything’s all creaky and sore and old, but just because I’m 26 and old doesn’t mean you guys don’t get to find out what I’ve been doing. Movies Drive – Finally got around to catching this movie. Min was accurate in calling it more of an art movie than an action movie. Ryan Gosling’s pure […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 30 Jan 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Busy weekend with lots of media consumed. That kind of thing happens when I hang out with Min. Movies The Descendants – Shailene Woodley was a revelation as Alex in this movie. Excellent acting. George Clooney was also quite good. Pretty chill movie and worth seeing, even if the land ownership subplot is kind of […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 23 Jan 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Movies Evangelion 1.11 – Min has never seen Evangelion all the way through, so I figured the movies would be the best/easiest way to watch them. Ip Man – I ran into this movie as a “Watch It Again” recommendation on Netflix, so I thought I’d show Min the aggressively pro-Chinese/anti-Japanese parts because I find […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing 7 Nov 2011 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Movies Scott Pilgrim vs. The World – I didn’t technically watch Scott Pilgrim because I was listening to the director commentary with Bryan Lee O’Malley. Very informative to learn about how autobiographical the story is and about how integrated Edgar Wright’s movie was with the book. TV The Walking Dead – Not killing off Shane […]

  • What I’ve Been Doing [FB/IB/BT/GO]

    San Diego Comic-Con is upon us and for once I actually read comics. I’m excited to learn about Marvel’s new December event, but, in the meantime, here’s what I’ve been up to. Movies: Out of Sight – Steven Soderbergh’s Elmore Leonard adaptation was a pretty solid flick and about the only thing I’ve ever seen […]

  • Quit Claiming The Sky Is Falling [IB]

    I’m gonna stick to tv here, but this is a general purpose post, really. Remember in the early aughts when the death of modern tv was imminent due to reality tv? Original programming was over! Reality tv was so cheap and got such high ratings that soon we’d all be watching The Bachelor, Survivor, and […]

  • What I’m Watching [IB/FB/WMQ]

    Movies Source Code – Some defect in the genetic composition of my brothers has caused them to write off this movie as garbage. I assure everyone reading that the numbers obtained by Rotten Tomatoes assuring the public that 90% of movie reviewers liked this movie are worth listening to. The “thinking man’s action blockbuster” seems […]
