Review: Iron Man

I had pretty high hopes going into this movie, originally I was skeptical of Robert Downey for the part but the trailers immediately reversed my opinion and I went from eh to pretty psyched about it. And it doesn’t disappoint. The executive summary is I give it a 9, maybe just under a 9 on [...]

Review: 21

Just saw 21, I’ve been pretty psyched to see it because I really loved the book (my friend Gwen hooked me up with it, I probably wouldn’t have picked it up on my own since it didn’t seem to involve lasers, aliens or giant robots). The book was really engrossing and focussed a lot on [...]

DVD Review: King of Kong!

Ok, this is a review and a half. Let me just get Across the Universe out the way, first. There’s really a lot I could say about this movie, mostly not positive (although some scenes were particular beautiful or cool), but it pretty much all stems from one root problem. It’s really, really hard to [...]

My beef with FriendFeed

Well, there was no shortage of chatter about FriendFeed this weekend. So I signed up for it and gave it a teeny little spin. What it is is a social networking aggregator - so you login and you provide it all your information - your facebook, myspace, flicker, delicious (dropped the dots!), amazon wishlist, or [...]

Review: XRAP iPhone case (v. Cozip)

The dam broke after I got a Cozip for my iPhone. Not that I have any beef with it, I quite like it, but now I’m interested in seeing what other minimal cases there are. I came across a forum posting talking about the XRAP which sounded pretty interesting. Sadly, there’s very little info available [...]

Ok, I like the Sarah Connor Chronicles

UPDATE: Check out the interview with Summer at the A.V.Club. (via)
Well, this last episode of Terminator sealed the deal for me. I like the show, two in a row of good stories and good acting and good times. This episode continues my theory that Summer Glau and Brian Austin Green are what make the show [...]

Review: Knight Rider

Did you actually watch this? I admit, that I randomly discovered it about 30 minutes in and about 10 minutes after that was kinda watching it and kinda working on the computer. Its case was not helped by commercial breaks every 5 minutes.
But for real. This was awful. Unrelentingly awful. Were there any 2 [...]

Mini-review: Sharp Teeth by Toby Barlow

So I finished reading Sharp Teeth by Toby Barlow last week, haven’t been reading much recently - but I started this book and pretty much had to get through the whole thing. Saw this thing on the EOS blog and y’know.. Werewolves in Los Angeles sounds good and then the reader reviews on Amazon sealed [...]

Teeny-review: Juno

Here’s the executive summary. Go see it.
I was totally ready to be annoyed with Juno, I don’t know, some too clever, trying to hard bit of art house cinema. It’s too cutesy indie rock soundtrack also started out a little worrisome and then completely won me over. I don’t know, I think it’s a great [...]

GeekFinder: xScope 2.0

I’ve talked about icon factory’s xScope before. I liked it. xScope just informed me by way of an automatic update that 2.0 is out and they’ve added a new feature. Dimensions. Can I just say. I love it?
For the most part the only thing I ever used xScope for was rules - finding measurements. And [...]
