Bandslam is the type of 80’s feelgood battle of the bands movie that somehow made its way into theaters last year 2009. It was probably riding on the success of American Idol, School of Rock and Disney movies Camp Rock and High School Musical. Yet, this movie is so much better than the early teen … Continue reading
My son is almost 5 years old. That’s still no excuse that I let him watch the “older” Disney shows like Good Luck Charlie, Wizards of Waverly Place, Jonas Brothers LA and Suite Life on Deck. I should know better. Regardless, I think the shows are harmless, sometimes funny and charming. So why not let … Continue reading

Brandon Routh of CHUCK, Jennifer Morrison of HOUSE, Jesse Bradford of my favorite movie Hackers and the not-so-favorite SWIMFAN, Sophia Bush of One Tree Hill, … Continue reading
While everyone maybe talking about INCEPTION, I’ve been watching interceptions and football. Football in the summer? Yes. I’m hooked on a sports anime. Time Warner is showing Eyeshield 21 on demand and I cannot get enough of this football soap opera. I was lucky enough to catch it from the first episode and I can’t … Continue reading
I thought I’d try to save some money and cut off our A/C while we went on vacation last week. Not exactly the brightest idea. We came back this week to an 85 degree heated house. The weather has been in the 95-100 degree F range. So my summer tech tip is lower the A/C … Continue reading

Undisputed III and Mystery Team both have been heavily talked about on the main site and message boards and are well deserved gems. Being a fan of Donald Glover on “Community”, I rented Mystery Team as soon as … Continue reading
