  • The Third Dimension

    Spent the last few hours watching the two new 3D Blu-Ray releases that came out today. First up was Journey To The Center Of The Earth, which is a movie I consider more fun that most people likely do. It has little basis in reality, …

  • These Stories And More, Plus…

    I just finished going through all the commentaries and extras for the new 10th Anniversary DVD box set for Sports Night. Most people who would be reading this know me well enough to know that I have less than zero interest in professional sports. Having …
