The first full trailer for The Last Airbender premiered today online. We have only seen the teaser and the Superbowl spot so far, and those trailers really did not give you a good idea about the movie. With this trailer, we finally get some idea of the story, and we can see some of the actors actually say some lines. There are not really any big name actors in this movie, other than the director/writer (adaptation) M. Night Shyamalan. Dev Patel (Slumdog Millionaire) and Jackson Rathbone (The Twilight Saga) are probably the...

Tonight’s episode was not a let down,  but maybe just more relaxed compared to last week’s awesome opener. I was kinda bummed at the lack of questions being answered in this episode. The only new piece of info, really, was the new Japanese guy has a name, Dogen, and is kind of annoying. This whole “holier than thou” approach to having a translator to be tough is starting to grate on my nerves. The translator is annoying too in the fact that I see him and think of a bunch of comedy roles he has done and...

Kansas City’s theater season has effectively reached the mid point with three productions remaining in both the Rep and Broadway Across America’s touring productions at the Music Hall. It’s been a pretty great year thus far…lets recap and take a look forward. Both opened their seasons with darker edgier takes on classic elements in stories with superb productions of Into the Woods (KC Rep) and Spring Awakening (Music Hall). I am still kicking my self for not catching repeat performances for both. The...

Around the World in 80 days at the Kansas City Repertory Theatre is faithful to the Jules Verne novel on which it is based. I say this as if you are a fan of the work then get your tickets to the show now. If you are not, well I am not sure if this will change your mind, however that shouldn’t deter you from making the trip. Don’t mistake me, this is top of the line theatre work. It’s just that I walked away from the show feeling a bit indifferent. This is no fault of the show’s company of eight. Each...

When I first started hearing about Dear John, all I could think about were those poor saps at war receiving the infamous “Dear John” letters that their girlfriends were leaving them to be with someone else. To hear that this was a love story of that same fashion I thought they must be joking. They were not. One thing that had me looking forward to the story was that writer Nicholas Sparks, of the biggest tear-jerker ever, The Notebook was the writer of this novel. Beware book lovers, I have been told that the movie...

War is the name and vengeance is the game. This epic battle between the forces of good and evil is driven by so many blasts from your gaming past that it fringes on plagiarism, but keeps it fresh though thoroughly familiar. Say hello to Darksiders. You play as War, a Horseman of the Apocalypse, who is charged in keeping the balance between Heaven and Hell. Through some crafty deception, he is tricked into bringing about the end of the world, and after an epic battle, gives demons a foothold in the final showdown. He is punished...

Imagine this: you’re on a business trip to China with your hetero-life mate. You’re surrounded by a fantastic culture, neon signs lighting up the city streets. It’s a great trip, until EVIL SOLDIERS ATTACK! Whoa, right? I mean, that got intense pretty quickly. If my little story enthralled you, then you’d better grab an energy drink and put on your Rush Hour T-shirt, because the Co-op shooter Army of Two: The 40th Day is here. Boom. Alright, so the story is a little lacking….by “little”...

The day has finally come! We are finally in the last season of LOST and all the answers will be revealed; or so we hope. There are many questions left such as: where is Claire, and why is Richard Alpert immortal? Knowing how genius the guys of LOST have been so far, I have no doubt in my mind that we will be satisfied and thoroughly mind-f**ked. The premiere was so exciting, that Ryan, John and myself (Angela) decided to sit down and just discuss what has been revealed and what we think it all means on video for everyone to see....

Who got snubbed, who should have been forgotten… The 82nd Annual Academy Awards will air Sunday, March 7th at 7 pm central on ABC. There will...

After a week off I settled down for an hour of comedy goodness and I am pleased to say that I was not disappointed.  Although the dishes that are sitting in my sink unwashed are pretty disappointed.  Oh well they’ll get over it and if not, who cares I’ve got to watch Chuck.  So I win.  Unfortunately my stupid DVR got crabby tonight and I missed the first 4 minutes so I spent a good part of the next 15 trying to figure out what was going on.  Luckily for me it didn’t take long and soon I was cruising along...

Ok we all know that after Twilight the most marketable thing you can do is go “Vamp.” It seems that everyone is jumping on the band wagon music included. If you follow the site, you know that I’m not a big fan of this blood-sucking band wagon, so when I was handed the the assignment to review the newest release from Vampires Everywhere!, “Lost in the Shadows”  I was less than thrilled. Before I sat down to give the whole album a full listen, I gave it a small 15 second preview and was reminded of...
