Rick and I hated ourselves enough to see Battleship. This is a video of us explaining what was good about it(not much) and what we didn’t like about it.

You Sunk My Very Low Expectations

I’ll Eat You Up I Love You So
On May - 18 - 2012
Entrance is a low budget horror/psychological thriller based around the life of Suzy (Suziey Block) and her being a young transplant in Los Angeles. You see her daily life as a twenty-something, mostly divided up between being a barista and taking care of her dog. On occasion, you see
her jadedly out and about in social settings, whether out with her friends or deciding to pick a guy up at a bar.
As the movie develops, you start to see Suzy feeling uncomfortable at home and around her neighborhood, hearing sounds in her home that make her feel like someone’s sneaking around without her knowledge. This goes further in a scene where Suzy is asleep with one of her friends, and you see the camera flashes, letting you know someone else IS in fact present.

Will the Real Admiral General Aladeen Please Stand Up?
On May - 17 - 2012
Sacha Baron Cohen is one of those writer/actors that most people either love or hate. I happen to love him. Borat was hilarious, and I didn’t think Bruno was very far off (a lot of people hate that one). In his most recent film, The Dictator, he plays Admiral General Aladeen, the leader of a fictitious middle eastern nation called Wadiya.
Minor plot spoilers below. By minor I mean if you didn’t figure it out from the trailers shame on you.
Marry/Bang/Kill – Battleship, The Dictator, & What to Expect When You’re Expecting

Joss Whedon: The Complete Companion
On May - 15 - 2012
First I should start with a bit of a personal confession. I have never seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, or Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog. I still haven’t finished Firefly, and I’ve only seen one episode of Dollhouse. I have seen Serenity and read Astonishing X-Men, but other than that I’m rather unfamiliar with Joss Whedon’s catalog.
You might think this book isn’t for someone that isn’t already a fan of Whedon, but you’d be wrong. While fans of his work will definitely get the most out of this book, people interested in pop culture in general will appreciate the well thought out essays about the span of Joss Whedon’s career. It’s 450+ pages about Whedon’s career with entire chapters devoted to Buffy, Angel, Firefly and Serenity, Dollhouse, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, Whedon’s film career, and the comics he’s written.
At the beginning of each chapter is a 101 familiarizing you with the franchise the rest of that section is about. These are great for people who aren’t fans yet, and I would assume they apply as great refreshers for people who have been longtime fans. The rest are essays about the franchise by people who have studied Whedon’s work and its cultural effects.
This is a great book for fans of Joss Whedon, or someone who may be interested in what he’s done, especially after the most recent movie he directed (The Avengers) has been breaking box office records. It might just make a fan out of you. I know I’m going to be checking out Angel on Netflix now. And I promise I’m going to finish Firefly.
Tim Burton + Soap = Mildy Amusing Camp
On May - 14 - 2012
Dark Shadows is the 8th and latest teaming of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. It is based on a soap opera of the same name that aired from 1966-1971. Tim Burton took the franchise and turned it into a comedy often dealing with Barnabas Collins’ adjustment to the 70′s from the 18th century that he was familiar with.
