I don’t know what it is about this trailer, but it makes me laugh. Maybe it’s the idea that a burned-out actor somehow becomes President, or perhaps it’s the over-the-top tone. Or maybe it’s the woman with the well-armed – and armored – brassiere (speaking of which, where are the bullets stored? There is no […]
I am not a huge Woody Allen fan, in fact the only film of his that I think I saw was “Sleeper.” Though I do hear a lot about how I am supposed to like his work. That being said, there’s something about multi-hyphenate director John Turturro’s “Fading Gigolo” that really interests me. And despite getting […]
“Young At Heart” is the sixteenth episode of the series, and it’s a doozy. In it Mulder is being stalked by a man that’s , supposedly, already dead. When Mulder had just joined the FBI, he shot John Barnett (David Peterson), though not before he killed another agent during a robbery. Barnett was taken alive, […]
Pictures from James Gunn’s “Guardians Of The Galaxy” have begun to turn up all over the Internets, and despite there being very little evidence to base an opinion (an informed one, at any rate) everyone has begun to chime in about the quality of the film. It’s worth mentioned that I am talking about a […]
In “Lazarus,” the fifteenth episode of the series, Scully’s ex-boyfriend and fellow agent, Jack Willis (Christopher Allport) is killed during a stakeout of a bank, though afterward the robber is shot by Scully. Both men momentarily die, though upon the resuscitation of Agent Willis, somehow the consciousness of the robber is transferred to his body. […]
HTC isn’t doing too well in the smartphone wars. All that I have read says that their premium smart phone, the HTC One is a gorgeous, well-thought out device. That being said, with Apple and Samsung sucking up all the oxygen it’s hard for other smartphone makers to find some air to breathe. HTC seems […]
Neil Blomkamp’s “Elysium” is somewhat of a novelty these days: A science fiction film that has something not only to say about where we are as a species, but where we are going. Though, before I begin, I need to get something off my chest. Some critics, who actually get paid for their work, have […]
Not quite my cup of tea, but for those that grew up with Jim Henson’s creations (or have children that they want to introduce to them), Why not?
“Beneath The Sea,” episode 13, is pretty entertaining. It’s somewhat Scully-centered (her father dies, and she has occasional incidents that are vaguely paranormal in nature) and dovetails nicely with the case they’re working on. It involves a serial killer, Luther Lee Boggs (the always awesome Brad Dourif) who happens to be sitting on death row in […]
When I heard about George Clooney’s latest directorial vehicle, “The Monuments Men,” I wasn’t too interested. First, ‘Monuments’ is plural, as opposed to singular, which sounds a bit odd to me. Then, there are no space ships, giant robots or aliens, so it wasn’t exactly on my radar. Till I saw the trailer. Clooney’s take […]
