I Bring Nothing to the Table

  • Scott Pilgrim [Bookmark This/Filmmakers Bleed/Game Overview]

    Scott Pilgrim mania hit its peak two weeks ago with the release of the PSN game and the movie coming just a few weeks after the sixth book made its way to stores. The book is in a really strange position for mainstream acceptance. Most people see it and think “hipster”, which isn’t at all […]

  • Dragon Quest IX and Inception [GO/FB]

    What a weekend! It started with a craving to see Inception on an IMAX screen and was filled with slime and questing. Some quick words on both. Inception I don’t think it has quite enough to supplant The Dark Knight as my favorite Nolan film, but it’s certainly up there with his best work. The […]

  • Boycotting Bad People [FB/BT/WMQ]

    Just last week it happened again. A high-profile celebrity revealed what a dirtbag he was in the most public way possible and it brings up the same question it always does. Am I supporting his/her ideologies by supporting their art? Am I a bad person by proxy? Back around when The Passion of the Christ […]

  • New Scott Pilgrim Trailer [ER/FB]

    Yes. I want to see this, even though it has a strong chance of not being that great. Who knows, it might even make less tired of Michael Cera. Then again, he’s still kind of an indie band guy in this movie, so…

  • A (Short) Alice in Wonderland Review [Filmmakers Bleed]

    I hate 3D movies. I’m not fond of Tim Burton movies. Those two statements should tell you everything you need to know about my opinion of Alice in Wonderland. For those of you not satisfied with that, there are only two more points that I feel are worth mentioning. The first is that I did […]

  • Thoughts on Whip It and An Education [Filmmakers Bleed]

    It’s a tough world out there. The first person you meet in the beginning of The Legend of Zelda says, “It’s dangerous to go alone,” and he’s 100% right. I know this as well as anyone. Childhood, and school in general, wasn’t that long ago for me. For a kid whose family was decidedly not […]

  • Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World [ER/FB]

    I have really high hopes for this movie. Can’t wait for it to come out.

  • Sharing [F/FB]

    In a sense, doing this blog is a really strange thing for me. I’m more than happy to share my opinion with anyone about the music, movies, or games that I love, but I get nearly crippling anxiety when it comes to actually compelling them to sit down and experience the media I’m trying to […]

  • The Hangover and Howl’s Moving Castle [Filmmakers Bleed]

    Those two movies really couldn’t be more different, but that’s what I watched this week. A few words on each: The buzz about The Hangover was everywhere when that movie came out. Heck, even Rotten Tomatoes was calling it fresh, but I refused to believe it. I’ve been burned by far too many mediocre, unfunny, […]

  • Every Movie in 2009 [Filmmakers Bleed]

    This is it, every movie that came out in 2009 (sometimes repeated more than once) to make a pretty sweet seven minute montage. Lord knows I’m a sucker for montages. Enjoy
