Since this weekend saw the wide release of Joss Whedon’s take on Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, I thought I’d challenge myself once again to finding the connection between one of the film’s stars, Amy Acker, and the hero of this segment, Kevin Bacon. That’s ACKER, not ADAMS, like we had last week on the […]
Review: The Great Gatsby
I GOT IT WORKING!! If you’re following over at Still Insists, you may remember I mentioned how I shot a video review of the film, but it was showing up weird on YouTube, so I hadn’t posted it yet. I finally figured out what was wrong and it looks like it’s supposed to now. I […]
Review: Star Trek Into Darkness
This WAS my favorite movie of the summer, until I saw the new Superman movie, but it’s still really good. Possibly my favorite part? Another Beastie Boys song playing in Kirk’s room in the earlier part of the film. I love the scene in the first film where Kirk as a kid takes off with […]
Review: The Hangover 3
I’ll be honest: I didn’t see the second one. It looked a little stupid, but the previews for #3 looked really funny, so I decided I’d check it out. Worth it. While I planned to see while it was in theaters, I picked this when I arrived at the box office. I had left the […]
Review: Man of Steel
I do not have a single complaint about this movie. That’s how good it was. By far the best Superman movie I’ve seen, and most assuredly the least cheesy, and I saw the old films with Christopher Reeve, and the newer one with Brandon Routh. The film begins on Krypton, a dying planet, with the […]
The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon Episode 5: Man of Steel Edition
It’s that time again! With the long-awaited release of Man of Steel this weekend, I wanted to see whether I could put the man in tights himself, Henry Cavill, head to head with our favorite film actor, Kevin Bacon. It took me a while, but I got a good one! Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon […]
Review: Oz, The Great and Powerful
I feel so horrible for not sharing this sooner, but since the DVD’s coming out soon, maybe the new timing is all right. While this movie is supposed to be a prequel to the beloved movie The Wizard of Oz with the wonderful Judy Garland, don’t be fooled. It’s nothing like the original, and yet, […]
Review: Fast and Furious 6
Of all the movies I saw in May this year, this was the big fan favorite. Not only did it kick butt at the box office, but the people in the theater when I saw it (at 11:30 in the morning on a Monday after opening weekend) actually applauded at the end of it. You […]
Scrapped: What’s Been Canceled May 2013
It’s official. The counts are in, and looking toward this fall’s line-up the networks are being brutal. I wasn’t surprised by a few of these, like Smash and Guys with Kids, and I’ve heard rumors about most of the rest of these for a while now, but it makes it no less sad that some […]
Sunday Night: Mergers, Blackouts, and Dirty Deeds
Mad Men This week, Don gets in some big trouble after he fires the client from Jaguar. He manages to find a way around it when Roger gets him a meeting with someone in charge over at Chevy, but the big problem he creates comes when he partners up with Peggy’s boss over at her […]
