Most of you would have heard by now that in October 2012, George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, sold Lucasfilm to Disney for $4.05 billion dollars. As part of the announcement, Disney had said they would be completing the series of Star Wars movies, starting with number 7. Keep in mind, that even though Lucas said he would never film the final three, he’s actually pretty much written them all, so all Disney needs to do is add some finishing touches. Oh, and [...]

The Rise of the Nerd

November 8, 2012 in Entertainment, Film & TV, Lifestyle, People, Self, Society

Today’s guest post by Mandi Aylmore: When I was growing up, being a nerd or a geek was completely taboo. It could get your head flushed, or have you mercilessly picked on. Don’t know if you are aware, but I’m a MASSIVE nerd. I’m a Star Wars adoring, Think Geek shopping, Star Trek watching, hardcore gaming nerd. I drink Jack and Coke from a glass that has the Republic Symbol and advertises Blue Milk. My coffee is sipped from a black mug with the Imperial logo. I run around in a Sith Robe.

The Top 10 Rom-Coms…for Blokes

July 4, 2012 in Entertainment, Film & TV

Girls…Want to spend a quiet night in front of  the TV with the man in your life?  Looking for a movie that both you and your man will enjoy? These are the Top 10 Rom-Coms for Blokes in my opinion: Annie Hall (1977) Arguably the first modern Rom-Com ever made, Woody Allen’s surreal and semi-autobiographical exploration of a failed relationship has lots going for it, especially blokes.
