• An Immodest Proposal

    The “Children of Earth” mini-series perfectly encapsulates everything I like and hate about Torchwood

  • My Life as a Teenaged Girl

    The Square Enix game My Life as a Darklord for WiiWare is actually pretty interesting. As long as you don’t let anybody see you playing it.

  • Our sinks are broken, and the lobster’s loose

    There are at least 500 ways that 500 Days of Summer could’ve gone horribly wrong, but somehow they pulled it off.

  • The Play’s the Thing

    I jump into the games vs. movies argument again, but this time Hitchock’s got my back.

  • Rule of Threes

    Trine the game is clever and polished enough to win over even the most die-hard haters of jumping puzzles (e.g. me).

  • Very Red Necks

    The only good thing I have to say about Near Dark is that at least the vampires don’t sparkle. Bonus: a rant about Transformers 2.

  • Searching for Long-Range Comms

    Moon is a 1970s psychological sci-fi movie artfully translated into 2009.

  • Guys and Dolls

    The Sims 3 is a great sequel. I just wish it would stop staring at me with those blank, glassy eyes.

  • Curses!

    I’ve got a renewed appreciation for Spider-Man 3, if it helped Sam Raimi make Drag Me to Hell

  • Ahh! Wow! Oh, Bobby!

    “The P.I.S.S is by far the most together group in the show biz.”
