So first off, just wanted to say I hope everyone had a good New Year and that this year is going great for you. Well it’s time to get back into the swing of things, so here we go with a new batch of reviews.
First, I am going to start with Avatar, but before I get to the review, I want you to stop reading this and go find your nearest IMAX or LIEMAX screen and go see this movie in 3D. See you in a few hours…
OK, you’re back. So what did you think of James Cameron’s newest big budget blockbuster? Well for me, let’s start at the story. This is not anything you have seen before, (see Fern…
Scientists at Oxford University have this week announced a paper detailing that having relatively high levels of fat in your hips, butt and thighs can actually be healthy for you.
In a world where much of (ok, all of) our mainstream media is so image obsessed, with size zero seemingly being the definition of beauty nowadays (not saying I agree, far from it, but you know, it’s the generally held opinion) this research could finally bring something new to the debate.
The research shows that extra fat around the hips and thighs can actually help to protect against various cardiovascular and metabolic diseases including diabetes – although fat around the waistline gives no such protection.
Lead researcher Dr. Konstantinos Manolopoulos, said: “It is…
Let’s all give poor little Marky a pat on his back and tell him how courageous and wonderful he is for finally telling a half truth yesterday, instead of his fully blatant lies of the past. Here’s a tissue for your crocodile tears Mark. Is this guy friggin’ for real? “The hardest day of his life”, really? Almost every word out of his mouth in this supposed admission was BS. No , Mark, you didn’t use PEDs to “get healthy” or return from injury, you used them to fraudulantly steal records and make incredible ammounts of money. All of these roiders who come out with this stupid “I just wanted to get healthy and help my team” excuse are nothing…

After last night’s two-hour season premiere, Chuck is settling down into its normal Monday nights at 8pm EST slot. Tonight’s episode is titled “Chuck Vs. the Angel de la Muerte”. Do you think the season can please everyone? Ratings from last night were strong. Leave any comments about this episode down below!
P.S. Jay & Colleen do a podcast on Chuck called ChuckCast (very creative title, isn’t it?) so if you’re interested in supplementing your viewing experience, head on over to ChuckCast.com or subscribe on iTunes in the TV & Film section.
The loooong wait to find out what else Chuck Bartowski aka Special Agent Charles Carmichael knows other than Kung Fu is over and it ended even sooner than we thought!

It seems that every time I turn and look at Google News, there’s all this hype about bringing 3D TVs to the living room. I’m here to suggest that the hype is over-rated and 3D TVs will fail to find it’s place into the living room.
For my reasoning, I’m not going to list content or programming because there will be an increase in the amount of 3D programming created even though there is not a lot out there now. Also, I’m going to exclude price and product availability because the cost of electronics always drops, eventually, 3D TV’s will be available to the entire public.
1. Nobody wants to wear glasses to watch TV.
The average person watches about 8 hours…
I’m currently in the air on my way from PHL to RDU, after about an hour delay in Philly due to snow. Delays are to be expected with inclimate weather and as a traveler you must learn to deal with them. However, the crew must also remember to keep the passengers informed of their status and not leave them in the dark. Information goes a long way in quelling anxiety and frustration that can come with flying. The flight I am currently on was delayed for about an hour due to snow, which is no problem. The only issue was the pilot didn’t speak to the passengers for almost the entire hour and only did so after being asked to…
Two Lost posts two days in a row. This picture has been circulating the last few days. It features the Lostcast reenacting the famous Last Supper painting by Leonardo DaVinci. As Lost fans, we love to analyze metaphorical stuff like this, so let’s analyze.
John Locke is playing the role of Jesus Christ in the picture, Kate Austin seated where John was (Jesus’s right) and Sayid Jarrah appears in the same area that Judas sat, although he is standing and not sitting. The rest are in groups just like the other apostles. The picture is below. Here is a link to a bigger picture of The Last Supper and here’s a link to a bigger picture of The “Lost” Supper for your convenience.
So…what do you think?
