A critic whose name has escaped me called Burn Notice “just freaking cool.”
Short, sweet and to the point.
And more accurately, it’s a spot-on description.
Seriously, I sat here for 10 minutes trying to come up with some prolific, well-written review of the series and the new season, and I just kept going back to how, well, [...]

harry potter and the half-blood prince trailer’s here!
It dropped maybe an hour ago.
This is my favorite book of the series, so needless to say, I am anxiously awaiting the movie…
The trailer doesn’t disappoint.
At all.

not shaken, just nerd
It goes without saying that the second coming of The X-Files (or, more officially, JJ Abram’s Fringe) is the new series about which I’m most excited. It’s also probably the only new series I’m going to watch, although I plan to check out the new Jerry Bruckheimer offering, Eleventh Hour.
But the returning show I’m most [...]

what’s the matter with canada?
Excellent post from Chuck Colson.
I am three-fourths of the way through Brad Thor’s excellent — and chilling — Jason Bourne-meets-Jack Ryan thriller The Last Patriot and in it, he makes a point that resonates in Colson’s post: that political correctness is going to be the downfall and ruination of Western civilization as we know it.

some men just want to watch the world burn
I remember going to see Batman in the theaters with my family in 1989. I liked it. I probably even liked it a lot at the time.
Batman Returns so failed to leave an impression that I can’t even remember if I saw it all the way through.
I did like Batman Forever.
I’m pretty sure I saw [...]

izzie stevens: persona annoya
Okay, I’m so over Grey’s Anatomy and am not even at all curious as to what Season 5 will hold this September. The writers effectively pounded this show into the ground last season with their descent into the trash commonplace on Desperate Housewives some of their storyline choices, and I have to say, that breathlessly [...]

on the fringe of awesomeness
It’s taken every bit of (practically non-existent) self-discipline I have not to seek out the “accidentally” leaked pilot of JJ Abram’s eagerly anticipated new thriller, Fringe.
For the past two years, I’ve seen a good chunk of the new crop of shows before they premiered, and while it’s exciting, I’m working on my integrity. Which means [...]

boo, you whore!
Ah, Mean Girls.
I am not exaggerating when I say that I have lost count of how many times I have seen it. It is firmly entrenched on my favorite movies list, and I can pretty much quote it verbatim.
We had our second annual Game Night tonight at Andrea’s. It was the two of us, Lizzy, [...]
