The Good Dinosaur

A cute and lightly entertaining movie with fantastic environment animation work. With some changes and more daring, it could have been so very much more.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2

An excellent movie that surprised me in many way, all of which were good. A great closing to a franchise that got progressively better with each movie.
Cop Car

A solid, low-budget thriller with a good cast and simple-but-effective production.
The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

I loved this movie. It's full of such retro fun which takes the period of '60s action spy thrillers and give it wonderful update without having to change the time period.
Fantastic Four

A fairly bland origin story presentation of a franchise that definitely needed a better reboot.
Vacation

Not a perfect movie, but certainly better than I expected. Deserving enough to be part of the franchise.
Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation

Another entertaining and enjoyable entry to the venerable Mission: Impossible franchise.
Paper Towns

Definitely an enjoyable coming-of-age movie with good character writing and charming humor.
Ant-Man

A highly enjoyable and fun Marvel film with a great cast. Probably their funniest movie to date.
Terminator Genisys

Better than Terminator Salvation (a VERY low bar to clear), but barely enjoyable. Good first half, lame last half.
Inside Out

Easily one of the best movies PIXAR has made to date. Do you need a better compliment than that as motivation to see it?
Jurassic World

A fun summer action movie. It might fall a bit short of the first film, but it's a worthy franchise restart, and better than the previous sequels.
Spy

A pretty fun spy genre comedy. I wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. It mostly works.
San Andreas

Unsurprisingly, a wall-to-wall ridiculous movie. But hey, I'm a sucker for disaster movies, so I still managed to moderately enjoy it well enough.
Tomorrowland

A movie that I believe had good intentions, but ends up deeply conflicted and almost exemplifying what it professes to speak out against.

About Me

I’m just your average laid back dude who likes movies, TV, music from movies & TV, gadgets, computers and most other things related to technology. Essentially, I’m not an outdoorsman.

This is a section I plan to expand upon quite heavily. There’s only a little bit of stuff that I’ve put together so far. It’ll contain pages of recommend sites for various types of resources and topics.

My So-Called Online Life

Click this to go to a listing of all the various places you can find me online. It includes all the social stuff like Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and eventually much more, once I get around to it.

Movie Reviews

Yeah, I’m a movie nerd. I often see upwards of 100 movies theatrically each year. I’m so-so about getting reviews posted, but I’m trying to improve. This leads to that list of reviews.

My Video Edits

For many years, I’ve had a hobby of doing little music video editing projects. I’ve been working to get many of those online for viewing. Some are from old VHS tapes, some are brand new.

Blog Posts

This is where the traditional, non-movie-review kind of bloggy posts go. It’s a catch-all for stuff that doesn’t fall into a more specific kind of posting category. It’s kinda sparse at right now.

Top Lists

This is a collection of my “top lists” of various things. You know, the “if you could only bring five albums with you on a desert island” kinda things. Currently lacking in posts.
