It is imperative that the Dharma Initiative be reconstituted!
There’s been a lot of cool stuff that has made its way onto the internet following the big San Diego Comic Con this past weekend. My favorite so far? Well, any fan of Lost who knows who Marvin Candle is should surely check this out immediately! “Perhaps you’ll be
The X-Files 2: Still Out There
One of the movies I’ve been most anticipating this summer, and also one of the movies I’ve been most concerned wouldn’t meet my expectations, is the long-awaited second X-Files feature film, The X-Files: I Want to Believe. My father introduced me to The X-Files mid-w
Who Watches the Watchmen Trailer?

Movie Mediocrity
I had a rare two-days off from my summer job last week, and so I of course took the opportunity to go see a whole bunch of new movies currently playing in theatres. I had a lot of fun, but I must report that everything I saw was pretty solidly mediocre. The Happening — Its [&hel
Quantum of Bond
It’s still got a dumb title, but holy cow the trailer for the next Bond film is awesome: http://www.moviefone.com/movie/quantum-of-solace/26922/main Please please please let the bad-guy organization be Spectre!!! Also, if Bond is taking things personally, Felix had better keep h
