Review In 100 Or Less: Human Target
I watched Fox’s ‘Human Target’ last night. The show is based on a DC Comics character, but I admit I know very little about him. What I do know is TV, and this is good old fashion fun television. Think ’24′ minus all of the angst. It stars Mark Valley (who also stared in one [...]
Return Of Book Of The Month: World War Z
The ever popular, “Book of the Month” podcast is back! But, lets be honest: it really should be named “Book of the Whenever We Get Around To It” podcast. For this book discussion we chose “World War Z” by Max Brooks. Shag (OnceUponAGeek.com), Cary, Ron, Jon, and Widge (Need Coffee) all try to have an [...]

Issue 85 – A Shaved Chest For The Ladies (The Wolverine Review)
Jon, Serv, and Ron get together to mostly review X-Men Origins: Wolverine. We talk about some other stuff too because, frankly, there is not much to talk about with Wolverine. Oh, and we dial up a few other folks including our friend in NYC and a, wait for it… girl! Email the geeks at: thegeeks[ [...]
The Spirit is Willing…on DVD
When we reviewed The Spirit during its theatrical release, we thought the experience might have been improved on DVD. The theory was the movie was so full of brilliant, distinct images and equally full of complicated action, we ached to seize the reigns ourselves, to have the opportunity to slow down that action (or skip [...]
Watchmen Review – Look, Ye Mighty, and Despair
There are a billion reviews of this movie, and there were a billion articles in advance of it. The demographic I fall into is well-represented already as far as online criticism goes. (What, a white thirty-something wannabe writer who read the comic as a boy is talking about the film?! That’s a perspective I hadn’t [...]
Lead on, Spirit!
Let’s get it out of the way. The Spirit, in wide release Dec. 25th, is not a straight-forward adaptation of the Will Eisner comic strip. That always seems to be the “concern” of the comic fan, and it rings hollow, a standard applied to justify having read the source material. In essence, by asking if [...]
