Into the Great Unknown

YOU. GUYS. You’re probably aware of the fact that both the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies were made by the same production company, Lucasfilm. And you have to know that Han Solo and Indiana Jones were played by the same actor, Harrison Ford. (Right?) So what if they could meet?!??? “Into the Great Unknown” is a 10-page non-canon […]

35 Movies of 2015, Each Symbolized by a Single Image

Can you recognize these anticipated movies of 2015 from just a simple icon? (Hint: the numbers represent sequels.) See my answers in the comments section below.

That was the first time that having a large-scale situation in the back was part of mainstream American beauty. Girls wanted butts now. Men […]

Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?

Thanks to the expansive trove of treasures offered by Netflix, I have been introduced to various cable shows I would have never watched otherwise. I’ve gone through almost all of USA Network’s original programming (some of the best cable shows out there!), and now I’ve moved onto Syfy TV with the likes of Z Nation and Haven. There […]

I’ve Been a Bad, Bad Blogger

Harro there! Remember me? I’ve decided to ease back to this blogging thing with a contrived post that crams my life within the last month through pictures (many which my Facebook friends and/or Instagram followers have already seen) and captions. Can you believe it’s already been 3 weeks since Christmas? We kept it low-key again this year with […]
