Friday Geek Out: WarGames
After writing about the kooky computer movie Tron last week, I thought I’d go for the more thrilling computer movie WarGames this week. WarGames hit theaters in 1983, the summer after Tron. And what a difference a year makes.
Where Tron was an unrealistic look at computers; WarGames gave audiences a look at something that was [...]
Shelter & Kiss Me Deadly
Here! Films is now consistently making great gay-themed films. We caught two of the latest on Here! TV this weekend and recommend them both.
Shelter is a moving drama about a young 20-something who has given up his own dreams to help take care of his nephew because his sister isn’t very good at being [...]
Friday Geek Out: Out of Africa
Spring time… it’s been a gorgeous week this week and that’s had me thinking about outside a lot. The outside has moved my thoughts to the film Out of Africa (no one said my mind worked in the most logical of ways). This film has some of the most gorgeous outdoor photography of any film [...]

Farewell to Jericho
Kudos to CBS for living up to its promises with Jericho, the post apocalyptic drama they canceled last year only to bring it back after a fan uprise.
CBS brought it back for seven episodes and promised to give the show a solid ending. It came back seven weeks ago, stayed in the Tuesday 10pm time [...]
Never Back Down
It’s Teenage Fight Club… No, wait, it’s Karate Kid 23… No, it’s Never Back Down that wants to be a fusion of the two films with a cast that looks like it came out of a show on the CW (actually three of the principal stars do have CW/WB shows in their background, even if [...]

Breakfast with Scot by Michael Downing
It has been great being on a reading kick lately, getting through two good books fairly quickly.
Breakfast with Scot was a quirky read. The story centers on a gay couple, Ed and Sam, who end up as guardians to Scot after his mother unexpectedly dies. Once they have Scot, they quickly realize the have a [...]
Atonement
We kicked off our movie going for 2008 with Atonement, which was an excellent start. The movie covers five years in the lives of Robbie (James McAvoy) and Cecilia (Keira Knightley), who have their love ripped apart by Cecilia’s younger sister, Briony. Briony tells an awful lie that has Robbie taken off to prison and [...]
