What I’ve Been Doing 5 Aug 2013 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]
Lots of talk on the internets about how Orange is the New Black was a fantastic show not worth missing. After checking it out, I’ve got to say everyone’s really right. Movies Nope, but probably this week! TV The Bridge – Demian Bichir is doing fine, fine work on this show, but the serial killer […]

David was in town for the weekend! DAVID! He’s never in town. Stupid Iowa! Movies I tried so hard to get David and Min to watch Star Trek or Fast 6. Neither would agree. Stupid David and Min. TV Arrested Development – Got about halfway through the Netflix season. I think it’s at least on […]

What I’ve Been Doing 3 Dec 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]
Four score and seven seconds ago I started trying to come up with a clever line to write here. As you can see, I failed. Movies Lincoln – I’ve talked to lots of people about this movie and it’s one I feel better about recommending the more I think about it. Sure, Lincoln himself may […]

On Qwikster and Tone Deaf Moves [Mr.D/FB/IB]
I understand the reasons for Netflix spinning off its DVD business as a discrete and separate entity. They recognize a sinking ship when they see one and, theoretically, this would enable them to eliminate tons of overhead (buildings, postage, the employees who check and stuff discs, etc.) increasing their profit margin for the foreseeable future.

What I’ve Been Doing [FB/IB/BT/GO]
Movies: Gentlemen Broncos – Netflix told me. It said, “Dan, you’re not gonna like this movie. Two Stars.” I said, “WHAT DO YOU KNOW, NETFLIX?! YOU DON’T OWN ME!” and then Gentlemen Broncos arrived and it was terrible. I didn’t really dig Jared Hess’ work on Napoleon Dynamite, but it was still funny. Broncos has […]

What I’ve Been Playing/Watching/Reading [GO/IB/FB/BT]
Here’s another breakdown of the media I’ve been consuming: Video Games: I haven’t talked about these for a long while, so I’m just gonna go over recent history, post-robbery. L.A. Noire – Just beat it last night. I think that the game premise shows a lot of potential, but the true masterpiece will be any […]
