What started as an April fools joke soon became a reality after overwhelming demand. Earlier last year Thinkgeek and Ion released the Ipad Icade.

Let us get one thing straight, I am a complete Disney whore. I grew up on Disney classics and I watch them today with as much enthusiasm as I was when I was ten. That being said there have been countless Disney themed games over the years which have been hit or miss. The most memorable, and most More >

When you invest $500+ into an apple product, you want to make sure that it is well protected. One of the nifty features of the second generation Ipad is the magnetic smart cover (sold separately) that folds and turns into a stand and also shuts your ipad off when closed. The only problem with the More >

I am a huge Dark Shadows fan. As a kid my mom tricked me into watching it by saying there were ghosts, witches, and vampires. Little did I know that I had fallen in love with a daytime soap opera. So when that horrendous picture of Johnny Depp as Barnabas emerged online a couple of weeks ago I More >

Get ready for full on ass-to-mouth, people! The official poster for The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence has been released.

Blu-ray Review: THOR
8 months ago
We have seen many superhero films come and go over the years. The last one I ever expected to succeed as a big budget summer tentpole was Marvel Studio’s THOR. Treading into the dangerous realm of magic, many feared it would scare off general audiences by being too unrealistic. Even though it is More >

9 months ago
To show that they have managed to become on par with PIXAR, Walt Disney Animation had a few surprises up their sleeve during the studio presentation at D23 Expo. One being a new, 8-bit themed, 3D-animated film called Wreck-It Ralph. After the failure of the fantastic Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, I More >
Review: ‘The Big Lebowski’ Limited Edition Blu-ray
9 months ago
I remember going to a midnight screening of REPO!: The Genetic Opera a couple of years back. The theater had accidentally double booked two midnight screenings that evening. One for REPO! and another for The Big Lebowski. The Juxtaposition of goths mixed with long haired ‘Dudes’ wearing bath robes More >
Review: The Joystick-It from Thinkgeek
9 months ago
When the Ipad first hit the market it opened a floodgate of possibilities for third party accessory developers based on its gaming capabilities alone. You can’t get more nostalgic than playing Atari’s greatest hits, dig dug, or Pac Man on the tablet device, but even with these classics from my More >
Review: ‘Paul’ on Blu-ray

Believe this or not faithful readers, but I am a fanboy. I know right? Who would have thought? I am also willing to bet my bottom dollar that the majority of you who come to this site are too. When PAUL was released this year, I was torn. On one had it starred Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (A More >
Review: ‘YOUR HIGHNESS’ on Blu-ray
9 months ago
I have only recently started playing the Dungeons and Dragons role playing game with my friends. Sure it starts off innocently enough, raiding orc caverns and saving innocent villagers, but a few drinks later and someone in your party is rolling a D20 to seduce an attractive dwarf priestess in More >

I love this! MARVEL will release numerous short films starring everyone’s favorite S.H.I.E.L.D. operative, Agent Coulson. He and Agent Sitwell have a discussion on how they can get a certain General to decline a request they were ordered to make. They then think of a certain “Consultant” who can More >

Review: Rango on Blu-ray
10 months ago
Rango is not only the first animated feature from ILM but the first from Director Gore Verbinski as well. Rango stepped into a genre where many studios have already established themselves as CGI powerhouses. Instead of the cute fluff we are used to from Pixar, this western tale chose to take cg More >

Apparently someone over at Universal didn’t do their homework. For one thing you don’t name your prequel the exact same thing as its predecessor, that would imply it is actually a remake. I’m not saying you should call it “The Thing Begins” but seriously this feels lazy. Second thing, I am a More >

Comic-Con Internaional has released the full schedule of events for Friday and it is packed to the gills with amazing panels!
