It took a while to get around to seeing this movie. Too bad I could have just avoided it all together. I can’t possible spoil anything for you about this movie since we know how the clone wars end, and since it takes place between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, we [...]

Book of the WeeK: The Alchemist
August 12th, 2008 · Comments
Not long ago, I complained to someone that there aren’t any minority Science Fiction and Fantasy writers. That person looked at me and said that I wouldn’t know since I haven’t tried to find any to read. So, with my foot in my mouth I went to the bookstore with the intention of reading as [...]
Quick Review: The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
August 5th, 2008 · Comments
The O’Connells return for the third installment of the highly anticipated third movie of the Mummy series. Rick and Evelyn O’Connell return to face the Dragon Empreror Han (Jet Li) who was raised from the dead by a now adult Alex. There were many things wrong with this movie but I’ll start with what was [...]
(Not so) Quick Review: The Dark Knight
July 18th, 2008 · Comments
This will be the easiest review that I’ve written so far. Simply put, this is the best comic book movie ever. Everything was exactly as it should be. The acting, the minimalist effects, the pacing and the writing were all superb. Heath Ledger’s Joker was terrifying. He was exactly as the Joker is portrayed in [...]
Quick Review: Hancock
July 9th, 2008 · Comments
I saw Hancock the other day, and there’s no doubt in my mind that Will Smith is now the biggest movie star on the planet. Even a mediocre film such as this drew huge crowds and posted huge numbers. I went on Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 PM and the theater was packed. Go figure. The [...]
Quick Review: Wanted
June 30th, 2008 · Comments
I initially had my reservations about this movie. After seeing it, I was really impressed with the action stunts. First, let me get the comparison to the graphic novel out of the way. The movie deviated from a good deal of the story without actually changing the main overall plot and theme of the story. [...]
Quick Review: The Happening, well, more of a Quick Rant
June 22nd, 2008 · Comments
I saw The Happening around the same time I saw The Incredible Hulk, but chose to not do a quick review at the time. Now that I’ve had time to process the movie, I feel like I have to say something about it. There is nothing wrong with a director doing a [...]

Quick Review: The Incredible Hulk
June 13th, 2008 · Comments
Wow. Marvel knows what its doing. I thought it wasn’t going to get any better than Iron Man, but guess what, it did. Okay. Maybe they are both about the same. Once again they give you hints of the Marvel Universe, and they tie the two movies together along with setting up other elements of [...]
Book of the Week: Superman-Batman 48
May 28th, 2008 · Comments
Okay, I really like this book. It’s one of the few that I make a point to read every month. In the current story thread, Superman has decided to rid the Earth of all Kryptonite with the help of Batman. What he found out in the last issue was that there is way more Kryptonite [...]
Quick Review: Indiana Jones…Kingdom…Crystal Skull
May 24th, 2008 · Comments
Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe I let all the hype and buzz around the movie get to me. Maybe it was remembering how the previous movies made me feel. Maybe it was nostalgia. Maybe it was Lucas and Spielberg together again. I don’t know. The movie wasn’t what I hoped it would be. [...]
