I believe in certain things. I don’t have belief in the traditional way, like faith in a higher power. I’m a pretty staunch atheist when it comes down to questions like that. But I do have beliefs. I believe that the sun will come up, and go down. I believe that if I drop something it will fall. I believe …
Apeshit Out of Luck: A Movie Review of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
What Dawn of the Planet of the Apes taught me. If indeed the human race was immediately decimated by a plague of ungodly proportions, mankind would be in all kindness is apeshit out of luck. Yes, I say mankind because in all truthfulness wouldn’t it be a man who would evidently go to war with a bunch of intelligent primates …
Ahright ahright ahriigghhtt…
Matthew McConaughey finally won an Academy Award. I mean that completely sincerely too. It’s high time he landed a role that was actually deserving of him. It’s really easy for many to scoff and roll their eyes at this statement, when you look at his past filmography. The man is, after all best known for his laid back surfer meets …
manly hair
The straight dope is, if we're true to our natures, then we grow a robust beard. That's what was intended by the order of THINGS.
It’s Electric! : The Amazing Spider-man 2 Soundtrack
Even villains need a great theme for destruction.

The phosphorescent* (see what I did there?) electrical engineer who made his way into Times Square zombified and confused has only the slightest idea of his …
‘BOUT TO GO HAIM
Hardest Indie Musicans Alive. Yes, that’s right; a backwards anagram.

Decadent of the …

Fast and Furryous
I don’t understand furry fandom. At all. Not in the slightest. I don’t see the strange appeal these people seem to have in dressing up in animal costumes at cons. After my weekend at Phoenix Comicon, I understood it even less. They walk around the cons in full body animal suits, acting like rejects from Disneyland. Is it a sexual …
Heart of Dorkness: Day Three
Phoenix Comicon, day 3. I woke up my third day of the 2014 Phoenix Comicon feeling less excited than I thought I would be. My second day had been a welcome change of pace from the first, in that I really had enjoyed my day so much more than the day before. But today was the event I had been …
Sandworms, you hate 'em, I hate 'em
Why lie the one panel that I went to at Phoenix Comic Con that left the biggest impression on me was the one with the least amount of people. It was about the oh so amazing topic of fictional sandworms. Now you’re probably wondering, why sandworms? Well the easiest answer to that is I love the oddball topic choice of …
