My Popcorn Is Stale #3: Harry Potter and the Chamber of DOOM! (Part I)
I remember when I was introduced to the Harry Potter books back in middle school. It was exactly the time when Potter Mania hit hard over here in America with the release of the third book. If it was popular here before that, I don’t remember; that’s at least when it became big with schools as part of the reading program. My English teacher had a few copies of each book, and made a waiting … Read entire article »

First Impressions: Jon Fratelli- Psycho Jukebox
When I was a kid, my father infused me with the love of basic rock and roll. It seems he was always playing Creedence Clearwater Revival, Duane Eddie, or any of the Sun Records gang. In fact, I remember my family going to the Sun Records studio, and it felt like going into an ancient cathedral, some kind of hallowed ground where important things happened. I possess a deep love for all things set … Read entire article »

SDCC 2011 Toy Highlights
Another convention, another round of highlights from me. San Diego Comic Con is a large, unwieldy beast that I cannot hope to go through all the announcements, so I will just be giving my highlights of the show. DC Direct Justice League The reboot of the DC Universe has earned many detractors but if the turn out for the protest over this weekend is any indication, people are actually willing to give this reboot a chance.

Mars Needs Podcasts #118- Potter, We Hardly Knew Ya
JJ and his amazing friend Elizabeth have a loose farewell to all things Harry Potter. The pair share the tale of how the “boy who lived” wandered into their lives, and share some favorite moments. At least that is what they set up to do, conversations being what they are, other subjects are brought up, dead ends are reached and a splendid sometimes off topic conversation emerges. Some spoilers are dropped, but the books have … Read entire article »

Tease Me, Baby! – The Amazing Spider-Man
I find I start a lot of these by telling you how much I love the subject matter of the film. It’s sad to say, but once again I have to do it. I love Spider-Man. Period. Love him. I’d let him take me if he wanted to. With Spider-Man, all bets are off! But I hated… and I’m not doing the usual geek thing of being over the top about this, I genuinely feel acid … Read entire article »
