It’s been a few months since Donkey Kong Country Returns was first announced, and since that time there has been some great new information on this sure-to-be-amazing game. But as always, it seems, there are plenty of annoying fanboys who already seek to jump up and down on the game. Read more
For those (few) of you who read this blog regularly should know by now that I am an immense fan of the great animator Hayao Miyazaki. And it is always means to celebrate whenever he announces a new film. And for the first time ever, not only has Miyazaki announced his interest in making another film, but a sequel! Read more
Toy Story 3 recently became the highest-grossing animated film in history, and now it can further boast that record by becoming the first animated film in history to make a billion dollars at the worldwide box-office.
Toy Story 3 now currently stands as the sixth highest-grossing film ever (just above The Dark Knight and just under Time Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, which it is due to surpass).
Congratulations to Pixar for making such a wonderful, wonderful film and finding such success through it.
May Toy Story 3’s gross reach to infinity, and beyond!
I know I just did an obligatory, filler post like this recently already, but I feel I need to do it again. I promised I’d write some cool stuff in August, and August is nearing its end and I only did a few of the blogs I had planned written (namely, my reviews of Inception, Toy Story 3, and Mario Galaxy 2).

I love video games.
I always have loved video games. As far as I can remember, the likes of Mario, Sonic, Zelda, and Tetris have always provided great memories and have largely shaped my creative thinking.
Being someone who loves video games as much as I do, I seem to try to compile a definitive lists of my absolute favorites quite often. And while a few games definitely make that list, I always find myself thinking “oh, but I can’t forget this game” or “I can’t leave that game out.” I can never seem to fully shape any kind of list, no matter my criteria.
Someday, I do hope I can make a list and post it here on this site. But who knows how long that could take…
But I got to thinking, I may not be able to compile my own list quite yet, but I can compile a list on this site nonetheless.
Which leaves me with this question: What are your favorite video games? Read more
I was lucky enough to be able to attend a second consecutive SummerSlam event. So I figured I’d review it. Read more
*dusts off computer*
I admit I feel guilty. I promised I would have some really cool stuff in August, and although I did write some really cool reviews those first couple of days of the month, I seem to have slowed down a little since. Rest assured I have a few movie and game reviews that I need to get to writing, and I really do plan on having some top 10 lists done soon.
Again, sorry for the relatively slow updates. I’ll stop procrastinating…..soon.
Studio Ghibli’s Tales from Earthsea opens in US theaters this Friday. So why not look up your local theaters and see if it is playing near you?
Again, that’s this Friday, August 13th.
Space, the final frontier...again!
Back in 2007, Nintendo released Super Mario Galaxy, a game that won tremendous praise from critics, fans, and everyone else. It was heralded for breathing new life into the Mario series in a way not all that different from Mario 64. Super Mario Galaxy was praised for its gameplay mechanics and innovations (such as the gravity effects, and its combination of 2D and 3D Mario gameplay). Everyone was ecstatic over the game. Everyone that is, except Mario’s own creator, Shigeru Miyamoto. Read more
