When friend and fellow blogger Derek came to visit last weekend, he brought along his blu-ray player. For those of you who don’t know, that’s a type of movie player which plays a special kind of dvd in high definition – hope I explained that well enough; it’s not like I know that much about […]
We saw The Haunting in Connecticut at the movie theater for date night (after refusing pizza from “Carlos Zambrano” at the mall pizza shop – seriously, the guy looks just like the famously hot-headed Chicago Cubs pitcher!) and the movie made for a pretty good ghost story. I had heard it was based upon a

We took the kids to see the Pixar movie Monsters VS Aliens last Sunday after church. The good news is, we didn’t end up with any nude children running around the theater (see a previous post of mine; I forget which one, but I think this happened more than once so take your pick –

We saw the Oscar nominated film Doubt the other night. Normally, I like to see as many of the major Academy Award contenders before the awards show airs as it did a few weeks ago, but it’s usually not possible to see every single one in time. Even though it didn’t win any of the
Entertainment Weekly has published a list of no less than 17 movies that are to hit multiplexes beginning this weekend. There are some that look like must sees, some that can wait for DVD viewing, and others… you get the point. Opening Friday is the apparently long-awaited film based on a graphic novel from the
Today was a rather hectic, busy, but ultimately rewarding day. The Sunday before the opening of any show I have ever been in (no matter the venue) is known as Tech Sunday (or as I like to refer it… Hell Sunday). This day was much different than ones I am used to. Today involved trying
