Hungry for some Hunger Games (movie edition)
Ok seriously, I don’t know wtf was up with the audience in my theatre but I couldn’t tell if I was there to watch a movie or at a meeting of the World’s Smallest Bladder Club. I think the four people in our group were the only people in the entire theatre that didn’t get…

My birthday present to you…a Batgirl photoshoot!
Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh – BATGIRL! Tomorrow is my birthday (don’t even bother asking, I’m not going to tell you how old I am) so I decided to give YOU, my awesome readers, a gift for sticking with me for the past year and a half. I wrote a little story to go along with the pictures…sort of a pseudo-comic…

Underworld: Awakening Reviewed
If there is one thing I love it’s badass chicks beating the crap out of people, or, in this case, people and Lycans. My friends told me to be honest (most of them thought it was the worst of the four Underworld movies) and it’s true that there was virtually no plot line in Underworld:…

The Nerdy Nine – In Memoriam 2011
It’s that time of year again. The time when we pay homage to those who passed away in 2011. Last year I wrote an In Memoriam post that turned out to be very therapeutic for me because I wrote about the loss of my step-dad. It’s been over a year now and I still can’t…

Dear Walking Dead (again)
[youtube:http://youtu.be/grWV8WZtAQc] – Dear AMC’s The Walking Dead (again), I’ve had nightmares about you for the last four nights in a row. Not cool. It’s all your fault, you know. You draw me in with your compelling story telling, make me fall in love with you all over again, and then scare the living daylights out…

Immortals (sort of) Beloved
Here’s the thing. Does this movie have a pretty basic plot? Yes. Is it full of pretty young people? Yes. Is it worth paying the $12 ticket price? I think so. I’ll admit that I liked Immortals much more than the two other people I attended it with and it’s probably because of the gratuitous violence…

Going apeshit for Rise of the Planet of the Apes
I’m officially based out of San Diego now and Saturday morning I started the daunting task of unpacking everything I own. Which is a lot of crap. Ugh. But it’s awesome crap that I’m not willing to throw or give away so whatever. Thanks to my OCD and my constant pursuit of organizational perfection, it…

Guest Review! Cowboys & Aliens!
As y’all know (I may have mentioned it once or thrice) I’m in the process of moving to San Diego and my life is in limbo while I finish up my work in Los Angeles. Therefore, my BNF (Best Nerd Friend) Hayden and his lovely girlfriend, fellow HNG Melanie, were kind enough to go see Cowboys &…

Captain America: The First Avenger of Awesome
As many of you know, this past weekend I spent my time doing my big move from Los Angeles to San Diego. Between the packing of the U-haul and the wiping of the brow from all the heavy lifting, I didn’t have time to get to the theater to catch the last of the summer…
