Where would the nerds of the world be if it weren’t for Harry Potter? I have no idea, but I know I personally wouldn’t have turned out to be so lame awesome without it đ Now, the LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 game has somewhat recently come out for consoles, but what some of you may…

No, not the ones on your roof! Shingles are the wonderful relative of chicken pox that rarely shows up in people under the age of 50….however, sometimes if your immune system is down or you have an exceptionally great amount of stress or some other unknown reason, they can pop up.

Movie Review: Inception
I was a little late on a watching the most anticipated movie of the year, Inception. I am usually a tough critic on movies and I can usually spot the clichĂ© and corny movies left, right and centre, however unlike many other anticipated movies this one was not a letdown. It surprisingly lived up to…

Seasonal celebrations on a cold, wintry evening are most picturesquely imagined…

Scary Movie Review #7: The Shining
“The Shining” is a movie made in 1980 based on a classic Stephen King novel. This movie was really weird. I honestly did not see the point of it. Anyway, let me tell you what it is about. This guy Jack–who is played by Jack Nicholson, is a writer and school teacher. Him and his…
Stranger Than Fiction Movie Review
When I first heard about the movie Stranger Than Fiction, I thought it was going to be an outrageous comedy since the protagonist is played by Will Ferrell. It is rare for one to come across a better example of why we shouldnât judge a book by itâs cover. The plot is quite simple. Our…
