  • Mad Men

    ,

    So here we are, the final batch of episodes of what has been my favorite TV series in recent years (my all-time favorite series is still Twin Peaks). This first episode was quite dark and weird, to a point of nihilism. Looks like Don is still going to go through the ringer for a while…

  • The Spy Who Loved Me

    —

    ,

    I don’t usually mention here when I re-watch Bond films, because I do it all the time, but on my recent flight from Japan to Canada I only watched one movie, and it was The Spy Who Loved Me – don’t know why, but they had it as part of the selection in the flight…

  • Daredevil

    ,

    I’ve only watched the first episode so far, but wow, I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. I had low expectations because I’m not a fan of what Marvel has been producing on TV – I don’t like Agents of SHIELD, and although Agent Carter was more interesting because of the setting,…

  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

    —

    ,

    Holy shit did I ever love this series to death. I pretty much binged the entire season in one night, and when I got to the end, I just wanted more. It begins with that theme song, that I love to bits – certainly one of the best TV theme songs ever. For the rest,…

  • Interstellar

    ,

    I remember that when this movie came out a lot of people were criticizing it for a few things, including the presence of Matt Damon, and the ending. I finally got around to watching it, and I have to say I really, really enjoyed it, including those two aspects (Damon plays a frustrating character, but…

  • Pausing PauseTalk

    —

    The final PauseTalk (Vol. 85) was held on Monday, March 2, 2015. The end, my friends. “Final” is a big word, and you may be wondering why I decided to put an end to the series, instead of getting someone else to continue running it – and there was indeed interest in doing that. Let…

  • The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

    —

    ,

    As much as I’ve loved the Lord of the Rings trilogy (I’ve re-watched it countless times), I just haven’t felt that love for The Hobbit. Initially, I didn’t much like the first film – I still really don’t like the entire 45 minute intro – but upon re-watching it during the holidays I found more to…

  • Better Call Saul

    —

    ,

    Well this sure is a lot better than I was expecting. Saul was never one of my favorite characters in Breaking Bad, and although I was happy to hear that a spinoff series was going to get made with him, that was basically because I knew that the same creative team would be behind it,…
