Break Time Reviews
After a week off, I’m back and raring to go for more Survivor SA. I was out of town for a wedding last weekend, and couldn’t find time to get a recap out once I got back. Hopefully you didn’t miss me too much. Camp raid We’ll start off at Zamba, as Dino reads Tree […]
Before we get into this week’s Survivor SA episode, I have some corrections to make from last week’s recap. I had a couple mistakes with how Immunity Island worked. By accepting the Stay and Play option, you give up your vote regardless on whether or not you win the challenge. The first episode was a […]
We’re back baby!!!! I was getting some serious Michael Jordan comteback vibes with the Survivor SA season 8 premiere. Filmed locally in South Africa on the Wild Coast – and entirely in secret – Immunity Island is the first of the major English-speaking versions of Survivor to return. Survivor Australia and the flagship U.S. version […]
It’s Oscars time, baby! The Super Bowl of movie awards. Possibly the wackiest award season ever is finally coming to a close on Sunday night. And after all the delays and the Zoom awards shows and the (honestly dumb and unnecessary) extended awards eligibility window, it’s time to preview one of my favorite nights of […]
We’ve got a quick little review dump, to cover some pretty good movies 2021 has had to offer so far, including one of the greatest things I’ve seen in a long time, at least since Parasite (high praise, I know, but deserved). I’ll hopefully get back to a more regular review schedule – already starting […]
Well folks, Disney did it again. Raya and the Last Dragon is yet another knockout. Fantastic animation, great characters, thrilling action sequences, and just the right amount of humor. Also, DRAGONS! You can’t go wrong with dragons. Centuries ago, in the world of Kumandra, dragons lived harmoniously with humans, bringing prosperity to all of Kumandra’s […]
With the news that both Australian Survivor and Survivor South Africa will be back in 2021 (AU dates are still TBA, while SA will premiere in June), now’s the perfect time to jump onboard with these fantastic international iterations of our beloved Survivor. Sadly, Survivor New Zealand has been shelved and there don’t appear to […]
One more review to dump to finish out the year. And while there have been some real turds since the last one, today’s focus is on good movies. They’ll range from “Best movie of the year” to “This movie is fine but worth a watch.” If you’re looking for some new movies to knock out […]
One of my unabashed obsessions is the Christmas Prince movie series on Netflix. The trilogy (fingers crossed for unlimited future installments) answers the question, “What would a Netflix-produced version of a Hallmark Christmas movie look like?” And the answer to that, my friends, is that it looks glorious. From 2017-2019, Netflix has released a new […]
Zach Sobiech was always a special kid. Everyone who knew him knew this. And after he uploaded his soon-to-be-viral song “Clouds” to YouTube in December of 2012, millions more around the country, and even the world, would come to learn this too. Zach was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in 2009. After several surgeries and 20 rounds […]
