TV Review: Hung: Season 1, Ep. 1: Pilot
I took a gander at the first episode of Thomas Jane’s new HBO series Hung and much like the first episode of the now deceased Rome; it was not as good as I had hoped. Its purpose was to lay the groundwork for the show’s premise and futures episodes. The pilot episode of Hung accomplishes [...]
Film Review: Taking Chance
With an approach to the war in Iraq like the latter half of Home of the Brave, Taking Chance emphasizes the effect of the war on the people in the home front. Taking Chance is the story of one soldier that decided to go off to war and another that decided to stay home and [...]
VOTD: Taylor Swift Rap Video: Thug Story
Country singer Taylor Swift did a rap video spoof at The Country Music Awards 2009 with rapper T-Pain entitled Thug Story. I love the large platinum chain T-Pain is wearing: “Big Ass Chain”. An amusing parody of a rap video but also a commentary on what some of them come down to these days. [...]

I did not watch the MTV Movie Awards but this tea bagging Eminem and Bruno Connection clip is making me reconsider. This was absolutely one the best moments of [...]

The Resistance is over. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has been Canceled. Summmmmer, I mean Caaammmmeron! No! Everyone said the move to Friday was the kiss of death for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles yet fans of the show, myself included, hoped the show would prevail. With the great season finale, many assumed or hoped, that the [...]
Keira Knightley’s authentic Women’s Aid Ad
When I first saw this Women’s Aid Ad, starring Kiera Knightly and directed by John Wright, a few months ago, I was amazed that something so raw would be allowed on television. I later found out that in some countries, this public service announcement (PSA) has not been allowed to air. This is unfortunate because [...]
