I have a confession to make. It’s kind of embarrassing for me to admit but… well, are you really going to make me say it? Geez, this is worse than the time when I admitted that my sister once did my nails and hair so I’d look like Boy George. Oh wait, I don’t think [...]

Happy Star Wars Day! #MayThe4thBeWithYou

Me and Chewie

If you didn’t know it (and now you do), today is the official Star Wars Day! Yep, it happens every year on May 4. As in, “May the 4th Be With You!” Whether you’re 40-year-old geek who still sleeps on his Star Wars sheets (uh, no, that’s not me… yet) or a 6-year-old girl who [...]

Two Marvel-ous Sequels: Captain America 2 and Thor 2 are Under Way!

Thor: The Dark World

After last year’s Avengers movie, it’s tough not to be crazy pumped for any and all Marvel movies coming out in the next few years! Iron Man 3 is just a few weeks away, but Marvel Studios has released some initial pics and information about two sequels I cannot wait to see. First up is [...]

Win Rise of the Guardians on DVD (Ends 4/17)

Rise of the Guardians DVD

I remember seeing the movie trailer for DreamWorks’ animated Rise of the Guardians months ago. I liked the premise and the animation looked real solid. But my family never got around to seeing it. Maybe because my kids were ambivalent towards it. Maybe because it starred Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, two characters from holidays we [...]

Darth Maul

If you’re reading this because you think I’m going to share some really cool hidden trick, cheats or homages that I found in the Lego Star Wars video games (a.k.a. “Easter Eggs”), the yolks on you. While the seriously hysterical Lego Star Wars DVD The Empire Strikes Out is on sale now (I highly recommend it!), what [...]

What’s Everybody Looking At in the New Iron Man 3 IMAX Movie Poster

Iron Man 3 IMAX

I”m getting super (hah!) pumped for Iron Man 3, which is less than two months away! I’ve already dissected the series of Iron Man movies posters that was recently released. And now, well, there’s an IMAX movie poster that’s mostly a collage of the other posters, except it’s a brand new pose of Iron Man and Pepper [...]

The New Iron Man 3 Posters Tell an Interesting Story

IronMan3

Things are starting to heat up for one Tony Stark. And I ain’t just talking about his jet boots! Zing! Iron Man 3 hits theaters on May 3 (Jason’s birthday!) and the big marketing push is fully underway. There have already been a bunch of trailers and a movie poster. But Marvel Films has now [...]

The 3 Most Romantic Movies of All Time So Don’t Even Try to Argue With Me

Princess Bride

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! I know I”m a bit late with this post, but I’ve been spending all day cutting out paper hearts to wallpaper the house with. Okay, that’s a slight exaggeration. Actually, Allie and I don’t really celebrate Valentine’s Day. We haven’t for years. We just don’t see the need to buy each [...]

My Son the Movie Director!

imovie

My kids recently discovered the iMovie app. While I don’t have an iPad (yet!), the app does work on an iPhone. What does it do? Basically it’s a movie app that easily lets you create movies with effects, or for more fun, create short movie trailers. Jason and Ryan have been having a blast, to [...]

We’ve Got to Go Back to the Lego Future!

Back to the Future Lego

Lego continues to out-cool itself on a regular basis. First Star Wars. Then Batman. Then Avengers. And recently, Hobbit Lego sets. We are truly living in a Lego Paradise. So what’s the latest and greatest theme that Lego is embracing? None other than the entire Back to the Future franchise! Great Scott! Lego has officially [...]
