The Ettatorial for the Week of 7-21-10 (Comicon Round-up Edition)

Well, I was all set to give you a pick of the week this week, but that was before I forgot that this week was Comicon.  And while there were some good books released this week, all the great things “announced” (let’s not kid ourselves, a lot of this was rumored or known to those [...]

Toy Story 3 Movie Review

Woody, Buzz Lightyear and several others of Andy’s fondly remembered playthings are back for this go around…but they’re not all back. Time, age and wear has meant that some of the beloved toys didn’t make it this far. Andy is now 17 and headed off to college in just a few days. When we catch up with the gang, they’re executing one last, desperate attempt to get Andy to play with them one more time. Despite their best efforts, it fails, and they then face an uncertain future and difficult questions: do they submit to storage in the attic, or do they take their chances as donated toys at a local daycare?

Star Wars in the Real World

What do you get when you take real photography and add elements from Star Wars to it? Well, you get that badass looking AT-AT shot for one. I’m not much of a fan of doctoring your photography, but some of these shots came out quite nicely. ThisBlogRules

Stella’s Day Could Also be “If Yoda Were a Better Dog”

Here’s a touching video about a well behaved little dog named Stella, beautifully shot with a Canon 5D MkII. I find this video particularly interesting because the titular dog, Stella, looks exactly like Jason’s dog, Yoda. I guess looks can be deceiving. In all fairness to Yoda, he’s a great dog, and he does act [...]

Iron Man 2 Trailer

So now that the Iron Man 2 trailer is out there and (in my opinion) kicking some ass, I thought I’d post the Iron Man 2 Teaser Poster that came out a few weeks ago. I know, I’m way behind with this, but you’ll forget all about it when I post the trailer in a [...]

Warner’s DVD2Blu Trade-in Program

While I appreciated Warner’s Red2Blu trade-in program (send them the sleeves to your old HD-DVDs, you keep the movie, and for $5 they send you a Blu-ray), their new DVD2Blu program just doesn’t seem like as good of a deal. First of all, they charge $7.95-$9.95 for your replacement and secondly, you have to send [...]
