Television, The Vampire Diaries

Watch It: TVD: Family Ties

Another thriller intro with Elena being terrorized by Damon. Or so we have been steered to believe. Damon is playing mind games with Stefan to terrorize his brother. Which is becoming tiresome after a while and lose its effect. Good thing to know that pissing contests between men never dies. Especially between brothers. Especially between territorial male vampires who both have their eyes on the same girl. Age ol’ cock fighting never ends. The…

Television, The Vampire Diaries

Watch It: TVD: Pilot

What happens when you combine a standard teen drama, twilight, and cheesy horror? The Vampire Diaries. CW pushes these teen dramas of different variations with half decent soundtracks out like no one else. I’ll give them that. However, unlike twilight and some other teen dramas, the Vampire Diaries has some likable actors which in turn allow the characters to appear…

Read It: Even Rain Is Just Water

This book really got to me and was hard to read through because of my own personal experiences. So, it took me a little longer than it should have to get through it.

This book was very enjoyable. The personal narration of the details of this band was great until it stopped and became a plain just the…

Seen It: Swiss Army Man

This film has a lot going on just in the idea of it. I’m not sure what to call it. Maybe physical fantasy fiction. Swiss Army Man to me sounds like it could be about a man in the Swiss Army. However, it is about a man being used as a utility tool much like a Swiss Army knife. It…

Read It: George Lucas: A Life

This biography was very informative and had a great narrative. I unexpectedly picked it up from the library while getting another book. I definitely do not regret picking it up even though it took me a while to get through it. I can say there was a lot I didn’t know that I’m glad that I know now and I…

Read It: The Testament of Mary

I don’t spend much of my time reading anything related directly to any sort of organized faith. I picked this one up because of it being on the ‘2013 Man Booker Longlist’. It was also an easy one to knock off the list since it is fairly short. Even with all of that, I’ve read worse than this. It had…
