Restructuring
by Paul Talon on Jan.30, 2010, under Uncategorized
In a long termed project, I’d like to rearrange my reviews so that they are pages instead of posts. Pages that will be subpages of their saga page. So much like they are on the Superman Page (for Smallville) and the Star Wars & V Pages they will be available in drop down fashion from the menu. This of course will take a TON of time and reorganizing of links. I will also be starting on this date (1/30/10) be placing new reviews as pages only.
I will keep the posts as posts for now so that no links will be broken, until I’m done.
Review: Dollhouse 2.07

“Meet Jane Doe”

This one was a bit of a mess. I kind of liked what it was going for, but it failed most of the time as it was trying to get there. Things just happened that there was little to no explanation for and it was a bit confusing to follow.

Star Wars: Clone Wars 2.06 Review Posted
by Paul Talon on Nov.20, 2009, under Uncategorized
“Weapons Factoy” is a great example of why Clone Wars is much more than a kiddie cartoon show. In fact it is at times more in depth and better at character development than the films are. It takes the relationships they have and analyze and compare and put them through the ringer to show us how they develop.
Take for example Anakin and Ahsoka. What started out as a real detriment to the series, has begun to really come around and actually become a valued part. Ahsoka is still a bit kidlike in demeanor as is appropriate and certainly will still attract a kiddie audience. But for the more mature audience, Ahsoka is the key to helping us see Anakin’s faults and beginnings of his descent.
Review: FlashForward 1.07

“The Gift”

For all the griping about this show not moving forward very quickly, I think this episode might have moved a bit too quickly. I don’t question the episode at all. I merely question the placing of the major events.

Observe and Report
Starring: Seth Rogen, Anna Faris, Michael Pena, Collette Wolfe, and Ray Liotta
Written by: Jody Hill
Directed by: Jody Hill
Paul Blart wannabe? The filmmakers tried desperately to say it wasn’t so. It is certainly a darker story than Paul Blart. But in the end, it doesn’t matter whose came out first, after watching Paul Blart, the comparisons were just inevitable.

Review: Flash Forward 1.01

“No More Good Days”

Now that’s how you start a series. With a bang. Phenomenal storyline, performances, cinematography, I had very little to complain about the show. Well maybe the unsubtle bashing on the head from ABC regarding going to their website to find more out. I thought the kangaroo in the middle of the street might be important on my own. I didn’t need ABC telling me to remember it because it might be important.

Review: Warehouse 13 1.12

“MacPherson”

The season finale for Warehouse 13 was certainly a doozy. I just wish the show up until now had been more consistent. It would have made the finale that much more thrilling with some proper build.

Film Review: Ghostbusters 2

Ghostbusters 2
1989
Starring: Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis, Annie Potts, David Marguiles, and Peter MacNicol
Written by: Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis
Directed by: Ivan Reitman
Are we ready to believe…again? I am. Enough that I’m not going to dismiss the film as a failure. The second film does not share the same amount of love and respect as the first but I believe it is underrated.
Though it is a silly, bizarre world again, this film seems to be unfairly picked on as the same qualities of the first are overlooked.
