Making “reality” feel like a crappy movie.
I like MMA. I like Muy Thai. I love the UFC/Spike series “Ultimate Fighter”. So you’d think I’d like the new version of “The Contender,” (called “The Contender Asia”) which features Muy Thai fighters instead of traditional boxers like the original, horrible Sylvester Stallone produced and hosted version of [...]

The band, that is. And that goes for Mitch Easter, too.
I bitch a lot. So today I’m going to spread the love and tell you about a record. A Loud Family record. The first Loud Family record: “Birds and Plants and Rocks and Things.” The Loud Family is (or was anyway - this record was [...]

The Dark Knight: Overrated (Excepting Heath Ledger)
Caught the new Batman movie this afternoon with my son. Despite liking the hell out of Batman Begins, I found The Dark Knight pretty underwhelming. The action was ok I suppose, but the fight scenes were edited so tightly as to be kind of hard to follow. Christian Bale was [...]

Di Dip Dippy Doody I love you.
I don’t even know where to begin. I was thinking about working up some sort of lame excuse explaining why I watched The Two Coreys again; maybe something about keeping up with pop culture, or looking for easy pickings for a blog post. But the truth is that the [...]

G4’s New Show Doesn’t Make Me Gag.

The most fun possible while looking like a penis.
I bought the game Rock Band for the Wii this past weekend. Unless you live in a rabbit hutch you probably have an inkling of what this game is, or at least what sort of game it is. The genre took off with Guitar Hero, which always [...]

I couldn’t resist watching that horrible Moment of Truth show last night, and I’m glad I didn’t (resist that is.) If you haven’t seen it, this is the show where they take soulless money grubbing fucks that are willing to hurt the people closest to them in exchange for cash, hook them up to a [...]

Once again I find myself watching a show that I hate so much it makes me angry. I’ve known Last Comic Standing is an abomination since the first time I watched it a few years ago when I was suckered in and watched a few episodes thinking they might have, oh I don’t know, funny [...]
