We tore through the first two season of the excellent, dark, well written and even better directed series… now we’re waiting for season 3 to hit the shelves. Based on the ending to season 2 (no spoiler here), it looks like the story picks up right at the point of departure (get it?) and continues on down the spiraling road of Walt’s life. Fascinating show and we’re looking forward to the twists and turns yet to be experienced in the up-coming story. If only they would burden me with the release date… what is it coming out?!

It is rare a commercial gets my attention. After all, I DVR most of the shows I watch and typically rip past commercials. However, for some reason, this Directv commercial caught my eye. Every time I see it, I burst out laughing and I’m left wanting my own, tiny giraffe! The guy’s reaction is too good! Well done, Directv. Excellent marketing team responsible for dis. I has it,...

It’s no secret I enjoy visual entertainment. I watch the odd movie in the theater, have a proud and diverse selection of movies in my top-10, and even hit the shallow end of pop culture by tip-toeing through shows like Survivor-Umpteenth and American Idolicious.

Though I’ve also seen the first two seasons, Breaking Bad has become one...

Caught District 9 last Sunday and was blown away by the film. The viewing experience was so different, so completely off the radar that is made watching the film quite entertaining on many levels. Filmed in a documentary style, spliced with classic action footage, the film has rock solid acting, fabulous special effects, and a story which demands attention and further contemplation. Without giving away any spoilers and nothing that isn’t explained in the first five minutes, a massive, alien space craft comes to Earth and sits above Johannesburg, South Africa. After month of no-contact, the...

Just strolled in from watching The Hurt Locker. An impressively intense movie, it follows the trials and emotion of a three-man EOD (explosive ordinance disposal) squad in 2004 Iraq. Filmed in an indie, gritty, camera shake kind of style, the theater experience is impressive but not required. This movie will translate easily to DVD because the raw emotion of the story, not the special effects, tell the story. It is hard not to describe the movie while preserving the integrity of the story so I’ll leave you with this: well worth seeing and be sure to bring something to clutch or nibble on because...
