DVD Mini-Review Double Feature: Chicas Malas at the Spanish Apartment
L'auberge Espagnole , or The Spanish Apartment, is a film about a young French man named Xavier. The DVD packaging rather absurdly suggests that Audrey Tautou of Amelie is the star of the... In X-Men Legends, You, Too, Can Join the Ranks of the Ostracized and Vilified!
or... Confessions of a Closeted Mutant Playing (and reviewing ) X-Men Legends reminded me of something I hadn't thought about in a while. Of course, in the X-Men comics and films, the... Against All Odds, the Soundtrack to Wicker Park Isn't Total Garbage
I haven't seen Wicker Park, and have no real desire to do so, but I did come home from Tower with the soundtrack on Saturday night. It's not consistently great, but it's surprisingly not terrible... Trimming the Crunchy, Boney Fat from My Fable Review, with Bonus Deleted Scene!
If you've ever wondered how long a reader review can be here at Gamespot, the answer is 20,000 characters. I know because I just tried to post a review that was about 3000 characters too long.... Retroactive Karma's Gonna Getcha
Earlier today, I walked down to a local video store to return The Italian Job , which I'd rented and watched with a friend who had been visiting this past weekend. It's a fun little flick, and it... Fable Does Not Discriminate on the Basis of Sexual Orientation. Or Does It?
It can get pretty lonely at the top, being a famous Hero. Don't get me wrong, I have no regrets about the career path I've chosen. There's no greater thrill than rescuing people from vicious... The Grandson I Was Supposed to Rescue Has Died. Many, Many Times.
Jeez, I'm such a lousy Hero . Still, it would be nice if those nasty little hobbes would leave him alone and pick on someone three times their own size for a change. Well, sorry, kid. I must... And I Can't See Why I'd Want to Live Here, or My Life as a Sim
I'm in Los Angeles today: Asked a gas station employee if He ever had trouble breathing And he said, "It varies from season to season, kid." It's where our best are on display: Motion picture... "Wow, Your Shoes Smell Really Cool!"
At the risk of sounding old-fashioned, I admit that I continue to be amazed at the way our world is so rapidly changing, and how these changes bring about new ways for people to communicate with... I Like the Cars, the Cars That Go Boom!
Damn it all, I gave in and picked up Burnout 3 today, and it's easily (so very, very easily!) the most fun I've had with a gamepad in a long, long time. I don't need to tell you what makes it so... "And If You See That Fable Score, Look Away, Baby, Look Away!"
Back in October of 1995, I had a friend who, just for the hell of it, wanted to see how long he could go without hearing the O.J. Simpson verdict. He figured it would be all everyone was talking... ESPN NHL 2K5, Normally $19.99, Can Be Yours For Just $29.99!
The battle between me and Toys 'R Us continues. First of all, last week, they charged me fifty bucks for Spy Fiction, which retails for forty. Then, I came home and put a curse on Geoffrey and... I Spy a Game That Could Have Been a Whole Lot Better!
Well, I just posted my review of Spy Fiction. Interestingly, killjoi 's most recent journal entry, which I really enjoyed reading, talks about how gaming conventions have evolved over the... Dry-Erase Boards vs. the Blog Phenomenon, and Life on Avenue Q
I'm finding it a bit hard to believe that it was ten years ago right now that college was just beginning for me. I lived on campus for all four years, and experienced the cliches of making... "This Mission Just Got a Hell of a Lot More Impossibler."
This is the continuing story of my adventures as an agent of the Special Execution Agency, who, near as I can tell, hardly execute anyone, and whose awe-inspiring motto is, "The last shields on... "It's Not Mission: Difficult; it's Mission: Really Annoying."
So I'm at this point in Spy Fiction that's ripped right out of the first Mission: Impossible movie. And after trying and failing many times to rappel myself down to that oh-so-highly guarded... "Have you ever transcended space and time?"
Yeah, I know, getting excited about a movie because the trailer looks cool is often a recipe for disappointment, but what can I say? This trailer looks cool and I'm excited about the movie.... My Carrie Bradshaw Moment: "Is Love Really All You Need?"
Okay, switching gears from rock writer to lifestyle columnist! Allow me just for a moment to indulge my inner Carrie Bradshaw. If you've ever seen Sex and the City, you know that each week,... Shinedown-a-Go-Go!
Since I named this journal...at least for now...after a movie about an aspiring rock journalist, I figured I should write about the occasional live show here myself. So here's my rant on the last... You'll Have Your Mediocre Spy Action, But At What Cost? At What Cost?!?!
Got home with my copy of Spy Fiction a few hours ago. Those punks at Toys R Us charged me fifty bucks for it! Whaddup?! It has a $40 price point, no? The giraffe's head will be mine.
