    World War Z

    Anyone else read this? This has to be one of the better *light* books I've read in the last year. It takes place in the not-too-distant future and is a first-hand account of survivors of the zombie apocalypse. It's presented as a government researcher who travels the globe and interviews...

    Resident Evil 4

    Wow! I didn't own a Gamecube but I found a package deal for cheap (relatively) and since I'm a completist I went ahead and got it to play Resident Evil 4. This is an absolutely incredible game. They've created the most immersive horror game I've ever played. The graphics are the best I've...

    Worst Movies of 2004

    I had Van Helsing and Anacondas: Hunt for the Blood Orchid as my two worst movies of 2004 but they didn't even make the list for Scott Foy, Ain't It Cool News' resident reviewer of craptastic films. It's amazing the kind of movies that some people think to make. I thought these were all...

    Don't look now . . .

    . . . but your Arizona Rattlers have won 6th straight. Their last victory came on Sunday against the first place San Jose Sabercats in Arizona. Not only did they win the game but they slaughtered the Sabercats 58-41 and prevented them from winning the Western Division. Next up is Saturday...

    Movie a Day #161: Kingpin

    I'm pretty bummed out today after hearing that Pat Tillman lost his life in Afghanistan. Hundreds of soldiers have given their lives and by no means are their lives any less meaningful than Pat's but for some reason his death hits me harder. So I thought I'd go with my favorite comedy to...

    Movie a Day #160: American Movie

    This is a documentary that should be required viewing for anybody who has thought about making a film themselves. People who love independent film should see this - a great independent film about someone trying to make an independent film. The movie follows Mark Borchardt, a middle-aged...

    Movie-A-Day #159: PCU

    Another one of those movies I try to show to people who haven't seen it. Great college movie. PLOT: A high school senior comes to visit Port Chester (aka Politically Correct U) for the weekend, and the admissions department mistakenly sets him up to stay with Droz (Jeremy Piven), a seven...

    Movie-A-Day #158: Deep Rising

    Whoever was responsible for advertising this movie is hopefully pumping gas in Wichita right now. Actually, I think they went on to advertise Club Dread. I would love to have heard their idea for the commercials "Okay, let's show the climax of the movie at the end of the commercial! That way...

    Movie-A-Day #157: Monsturd

    You think I'm joking, don't you? PLOT: When escaped serial killer Jack Schmitt dies a mysterious death in the city's sewage treatment plant, deep, dark trouble comes to town. A horrifying accident at a nearby genetic research laboratory results in the bloodthirsty killer's resurrection and...

    Congratulations to Hunkie Cooper!

    For those of you who didn't catch it (and it didn't get much fanfare in the local news for some reason) Hunkie Cooper passed the 20,000 yards mark in the Rattlers' victory over Las Vegas on Saturday (80-63). This is impressive by football standards, and is even more impressive when you remember...

    Jersey Girl

    I liked it! Ben Affleck was surprisingly good (not quite the bomb he was in Phantoms, yo, but good all the same) and Liv Tyler is awesome as usual. Who really surprised me was George Carlin - was really believable and likeable as the cranky but caring father of Ben Affleck. If you're a fan of...

    Club Dread

    Fox Searchlight gets the "Worst Advertising Job of the Year" award for the way they handled this movie. I haven't seen one good trailer or commercial spot for a movie I thought was absolutely hilarious. Warning, if you didn't like Super Troopers and aren't a fan of lowbrow comedy you won't...

    Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly

    Don't think video games can be scary? If you have a Playstation 2 and enjoy survival horror video games I highly recommend you check out Fatal Frame 2. I have played every survival horror game for the PS2 and this is the best one I've ever played. In terms of storyline, development...

    Monster

    Wow. What a great movie, albeit a fairly depressing one. This is the movie about Aileen Wuornos (Charlize Theron), the female serial killer who was executed in Florida for the murders of 6 men. The movie is told from her point of view, so we get to see life through the eyes of a girl who...

    Bubba Ho-Tep

    There was a thread on this a while back but it's been outdated so I'll start a new one. Got to see this one over the weekend in Tucson (anybody reading this living in southern AZ, it's playing at the Loft until Friday). Those of you not in the know, Bubba Ho-Tep is the story of an...

    Zombie Survival Guide

    Like zombie movies? Have you watched so many that you've secretly wondered what you'd do if the world was infested with zombies? Obviously the author of this book has. He adds a heavy dose of humor to the book, which is set up and reads like one of the numerous survival guides found at army...

    Tremors 4

    Hello, my name is mdamien13, and I am a Tremorsaholic. Actually I think the technical term is "tremmie" but whatever. I think everybody is in agreement that the first one in the series is one of the best monster movies to grace the silver screen in years. The sequels begin to split people...

    Big Fish

    Can't say enough good things about this movie. I'd have to revise my "Best of 2003" list to include this one in there. Perfectly cast and visually stunning, this is a fantastic movie that works on so many levels it's amazing. For those unfamiliar with the plot, Big Fish is about a dying...

    Who's that on the phone?

    Don't know if this belongs in movie zone or everything else, but seeing as this is mostly movie "stars", I thought I'd share this with anyone. www.hollywoodiscalling.com Oh wow. The horror. The horror. As amusing as it would be, I just can't bring myself to fork over the cash for...

    Anybody going to the Duel in the Desert?

    I never went to U of A but since I was from Tucson I always cheered for them and went to the annual football game. Now I'm going to be attending ASU for graduate school so this rivalry will be a little more interesting for me. I know the game doesn't mean anything but bragging rights (and...

    Clarence Farmer kicked out of U of A

    Just saw it in the paper today. That's too bad, I really thought he was an incredible running back. The whole tempo of the game for UofA changed whenever he was in the starting lineup. Had a great future for himself in the NFL. I'm sure someone will give him a tryout still but there's no way...

    New Rattlers QB

    Saw on the AZ Sports Report last night that the Rattlers added Joe Germaine to the roster. Germaine was a QB at Mountain View in Mesa, then led Ohio State to a Big Ten title. He has a Super Bowl ring riding the bench in St. Louis but he never panned out in the NFL. Think he could help us...
