So this week we started watching the film “Midnight Special“, in which a little boy goes on a fun road trip with his dad and his dad’s friend. Or something like that.

Not A Review Of “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter”
So the other week we I watched “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter“.
Me: <shows NetFlix envelope to wife>
Wife: “What’s that?”
Me: “‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’.”
Wife: “Uh-huh.”
Later:
Me: <loading disc into player>
Wife: “What’s this?”
Me: “‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’.”
Wife: “You were serious about that?”
Sadly, yes. Yes I was was.

Not A Review Of “Orphan Black”
It’s probably not a surprise to anyone that I’ve been watching BBC’s “Orphan Black” since the first episode. “Orphan Black” is, of course, a show about a vast conspiracy to create, monitor, monetize, and sometimes terminate human clones, which is totally up my alley, right?
Not A Review Of “Jurassic World”
So this week we’ve been watching “Jurassic World“, in which things get a little out of hand at the Wild Animal Park Safari Park Jurassic Park Jurassic World theme park, a lovely place which looks like someone put the Safari Park and Sea World together in a tumbler, shook it up, and poured the resulting slurry out into a Hawaiian valley. The cause of the chaos this time is not a hurricane or corporate espionage, but rather, some overly ambitious genetic engineering combined with generally poor animal husbandry and a door that could maybe have been reinforced a little better. This all leads up to a designersaurus that’s much smarter and more versatile than it should be, which uses its mad skilz to escape its enclosure and go marauding. Hilarity ensues. And by “hilarity” I mean “lots of people getting eaten by dinosaurs”.
*Does not apply to Chris Pratt or Bryce Dallas Howard
Not A Review Of “Ant-Man”
So recently we watched “Ant-Man“, in which Jack Colton gives Phoebe’s boyfriend/(spoiler alert)husband Mike a suit that allows him to shrink down to the size of an insect, while Kate glowers disapprovingly. Hilarity ensues.
Not A Review Of “Gotham”
So not long ago, I discovered that the first season of “Gotham” is on Netflix. I discovered this because, unsurprisingly, Netflix put it on my “Recommended” list.
Not A Review Of “Jessica Jones”
What’s this? Two “not a review” posts in a row? Inconceivable! But true. You see, some may remember that a couple of years ago my wife got hooked on crystal meth “Breaking Bad“, AKA “The Best Show Ever“. It took a while for us to get through all the episodes, after which I was charged with finding my wife another show to watch. Not surprisingly, this turned out to be a pretty tall order. Aside from the six-episode “Happy Valley“, I didn’t have much luck coming up with anything that held her interest.
Until now.
Not A Review Of “Avengers: Age of Ultron”
So this week we (meaning I) finally got around to watching “Avengers: Age of Ultron“.
A: All of them, plus a few extra.

Teaser Tuesday 11/10/15: “Queen of the Tearling”
So this week I’m reading Queen of the Tearling, by Erika Johanson, because the Calibre Random Book Picker told me to, and I already paid a buck ninety-nine for it a while ago, and Mango Momma advised me too late that I should read the reviews, which to be fair are mostly favorable, except when they’re scathing. (Seriously, read the scathing review — it’s one of the funniest I’ve seen since Meg took down Legon Awakening, a book I didn’t even manage to finish. Go ahead, I’ll wait.)

Not A Review Of “Whiplash”
So recently we watched “Whiplash“, in which J. Jonah Jameson, having tired of terrorizing cub reporters, decides to start terrorizing musicians instead.
