Tonight’s episode was probably my favorite this season so far. So much was answered, just from my list last week of things left to be answered! Tonight’s episode centered around Ben Linus, but had a lot of side plots that answered so much.
Right from the start, there are comparisons of Ben Linus to Napoleon, (this show is so genius) Ben has been left alive but with no power and basically helpless in both worlds we are watching. The alternate world, Dr. Linus is being belittled by his boss, the Principal and works...

Arriving at the sparsely filled Beaumont Club a little after 6:30 Dreams are for Rookies were already on stage. A pretty early start time for local bands whose set times are usually closer to 11pm on a Friday night than the 6PM start time that the first annual Popwreckoning.com SXSW showcase kicked off at.
Since I arrived a little after the first set time I only caught the final two songs of Dreams are for Rookies set . They brought some good kick off energy to a crowd in their short thirty minutes on stage. The crowd initially was...

Tonight was crazy and exciting, while saddening at the same time, being the finale and all. I have had fun with this season and I knew they would try to wrap up as many plots as possible, while not filling all of the holes. My first plot hole is Adaleen burning JJ and JJ’s wife in the wheel chair alive in the clinic, while tied up on the ground. While this was awesome and needed (hated that guy), all we see is JJ running off from the clinic when Bill arrives and Adaleen screaming for someone to run after him and get him....

The subject matter of The Ghost Writer may be curiously close to to the life of it’s director, Roman Polanski, but it’s political allegory left me forgetting about Polanski’s recent extradition. Even though the story of a Prime Minister running to another country to escape trial does seem a little close to home.
Minus the Polanski sub-text, The Ghost Writer is about a nameless writer played by Ewan McGregor who has been hired to ghost write the memoirs of the ex Prime-Minister Adam Lang. Lang (Pierce Brosnan)...

Let me just say right off the bat that this trailer is friggin’ beautiful and amazing. Legend of the Guardians is an animated movie directed by Zach Snyder who was responsible for Watchmen (another brilliant trailer). The trailer points out that the story is based on the novels “The Guardians of Ga’hoole.” There is one voice I could pick out immediately, Hugo Weaving. He is in good company with Emilie de Ravin (Lost), Abbie Cornish (Bright Star), Geoffrey Rush, Helen Mirren, Jim Sturgess (Across...

Everywhere you go, you are bound to see mixed reviews for Alice In Wonderland. Some will hate it, while others won’t mind it, let me assure you that most people don’t know the story they are talking about.
Let me preface my review by telling you that I have always been a freak about the Alice In Wonderland stories. There are two stories by Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland and a later sequel called Through the Looking Glass and what Alice found there. Tim Burton’s version was a hodge podge grab all from both...

Brooklyn’s Finest follows the story of three police officers in the 65th precinct of the NYPD. Eddie Dugan(Richard Gere) is the 22 year veteran one week out of retirement (hello cliché!). He is being forced to work with young wide-eyed naive rookies that draw his ire. Salvatore “Sal” Procida (Ethan Hawke) is a devout Catholic with a family of four and two more on the way that rely strictly on his officer’s salary to get by. His mold-filled home is causing health issues for his wife and he desperately...

Tonight’s episode centered around Sayid and the fine line he treads between evil and good. The alternate reality for him barely showed anything. We see that his brother has married his love, Nadia and had two children with her, while he has been working a very normal, boring job. His brother gets into some financial trouble and basically asks Sayid to “wack ‘em” and he refuses, saying he is not that person. Ok, so in the alternate world that possibly Jacob did not interfere, Sayid moves on after the war...

When the doors opened and I got a look at the crowd that began filing into the Beaumont Club on Sunday night, I got a feeling that the show would be special. People of all ages and walks of life entered with smiles of anticipation and nods to each other in understanding of what they were about to witness. It was heartening to see so many different types of people gathered together to have a party – which is exactly what Larry and His Flask, Strung Out and The Dropkick Murphys did. They had one wicked-ass party for Kansas...
