Walking Dead Episode 211
It had to happen eventually. Every series needs its own Worst Episode Ever. This week we got it from the Walking Dead. The crux of the episode was the decision to kill or not to kill Randall, the kid they saved from fence impalement. That’s pretty serious dramatic material. It’s literally a matter of life and death. And yet… Out of 42 or so minutes of actual show, about 33 of them were spent watching various characters meander about the farm. Here’s Rick chatting with… Read More »
Mirror Mirror PICS
Relativity Media delivers a new rendition of the classic fairy tale, Snow White. Mirror Mirror, set to hit theatres on March 16, 2012, stars Julia Roberts as Queen Clementianna (the Evil Queen), and Lily Collins as Snow White. This version is listed as a comedy fantasy film, and presumably takes a lighter approach to the tale. The Queen is desperate for control of the throne and to land the Prince, played by Armie Hammer. Banishing Snow White to the forest, she is still unable to… Read More »
Walking Dead Episode 210
On this week’s Walking Dead, Rick and Shane take a zombie road trip with their new little buddy in the trunk, and one of farmer Hershell’s daughters tries to make the zombies’ job easier for them by pre-killing herself. With no warning, we’re thrown headfirst into a crazy action scene with Shane fleeing a zombie horde and some guy who seems to hog-tied doing the blacktop shuffle toward a knife. Oh, it’s Randall, the guy they rescued from fence impalement last week. Classic cold open,… Read More »
Stephen King Reads Shining Sequel, Stephen King Country Gets Casino
Stephen King stories often take place in Western Maine, albeit in fictional towns like Salem’s Lot and Castle Rock. This past week, the Maine Gambling Control Board approved the first Maine casino and it is going to be in this area. Before last week, it actually wasn’t legal to even sell poker chips in Maine. Hollywood Casino Bangor was previously known as Hollywood Slots, but now it will be able to have the whole Vegas assortment of games. Stephen King confirmed this winter that he… Read More »
Walking Dead Episode 209
Walking Dead is alive again! This week’s episode lead off with gunfights and gore, and even the relationship stuff was intense, all capped off by Lori setting up a steel cage match between Rick and Shane. Here we have Lori is the car she crashed being a moron. Here we have a zombie desperately, futilely in search of brains. Here we have the show’s writers, thinking we would find this scene tense because we were worried about Lori and whether she would get away. Here… Read More »

He must, once again, become Ghost Rider and use his powers to not only save the boy,… Read More »
Walking Dead Episode 208
Walking Dead comes out of the mid-season break literally right where it left off, with Deputy Rick looking down the barrel of his gun at the little-girl zombie he just capped. Now that the ennui of the eternal search for Sophia has passed, where will the survivors go? Maybe Nebraska. Following the Great Zombie Barn Massacre of ’11, the show keeps the foot to the pedal with a gritty snuff scene. Farmer’s daughter Beth runs to embrace her zombie mom, who isn’t quite fully dead… Read More »
