Coming Soon-Ish: Adaptations, More Adaptations, and The Woe of High School
Beauty and the Beast My interest in this is mild. On one hand, Beauty and the Beast is kind of my favorite, I like Emma Watson quite a bit, and some of the cinematography looks lovely. On the other hand, I’m … Continue reading
“Mars Will Come to Fear My Botany Powers.”
Earlier this year, I read The Martian by Andy Weir, and while I enjoyed it, I didn’t love it the way most peopled seemed to. Which, honestly, kind of feels like my personal theme for 2015, much to my annoyance. I’m totally okay … Continue reading
“Come Find Me When You Wake Up.”
I fully intended to watch Edge of Tomorrow when it came out last year, but somehow never quite made it to the theater. Thankfully, Netflix has allowed me to correct this oversight. There were a few problems here or there, but overall I had … Continue reading

“You Know, It’s Moments Like These When I Realize What a Superhero I Am.”
Ladies and gentlemen, the return of Tony Stark . . . I haven’t completely made up my mind about a few things yet, but for the most part, I had a pretty great time watching this.
“This Is The Best Bad Idea We Have, Sir.”
Very seldom do I ever actually watch Academy Award winning movies before they’ve received their Best Picture awards. This year was no exception. I’m not exactly qualified to say if Argo should have won or not. I’ve now seen . . . … Continue reading
