Shaken, Not Stirred: The Video Game July 5, 2008

So I had an idea (rare, I know).
Watching Casino Royale for the first time since I saw it in theatres and it got me thinking about the next Bond game. Now I may not be much of a gamer but there are two types of games I will never miss out on:
Mario Games
and James Bond [...]

An Open Letter to Steve Jobs. June 24, 2008

I sent this email a couple weeks ago to his Steveness since I had heard of people getting some results by doing so. Having said that, I never really expected anything to come out of it, and realizing that I had sent it the day after the new iPhone announcement it was likely too get [...]

Countdown to Oscar… February 24, 2008

Alright, let’s continue with what we started last night. I’m going to save the best for last so if you want to hear my picks for Best Director and Film (once again, Juno fans are gonna be disappointed) jump to the end. I appologize for any typos: last time around the copy/paste screwed up the [...]

‘Twas the Night Before Oscar… February 23, 2008

Well ladies and gents it’s that time of year: Oscar Weekend. In the past few years I’ve made sure never to miss the telecast, after all I’m a huge movie geek. However this year I could not be more indifferent. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I have no TV in [...]

I love Apple. I really do. I am a self-confessed fan-boy who has had nothing but good things to [...]

Crank that! November 28, 2007

Recently, when I get really bored (and don’t want to do work that I actually should be doing) I’ve resulted to browsing through the depths of the internet trying to find things to keep me entertained.
Through-out my journey I came across the video for “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” and the various incarnations performed by young [...]

Flute of the Commodores. November 8, 2007

I had a very stressful week writing an essay for sociology and so to reward myself I headed out to the local HMV and picked up the newly released DVD of the first season of this years funniest television show, The Flight of the Conchords.
Firstly, let me start off by saying this was the funniest, [...]
