The midseason finale (as AMC is calling it) of The Walking Dead episode, Made to Suffer, definitely left fans on the edge of their seat. It is almost cruel the way we have to wait until February. What’s worse is, right now the actual date is not on the AMC website so it could be the end of February not the beginning. Until then, let’s look at this week’s episode. The first people we see … Read more
I have to question the group in this week’s episode of The Walking Dead because they didn’t seem to be thinking clearly. If you didn’t see the episode, When the Dead come Knocking, you missed some pretty significant lead-ups to the mid-season finale next week. Plus a surprise return for the group. As the show opens we learn that Merle is still a heartless bastard who thinks he’s better than everyone else. Nothing has changed … Read more
I’m not sure what to think of this week’s The Walking Dead; so much happened although not really that much. However, I think what did was significant in several ways. Some people lost, some found, and a whole lotta trouble coming at the main group. After last week’s episode with Rick answering a phone ringing in the prison, listening to him speak with a female who stated they were safe but wouldn’t say where they … Read more
Welcome to another week of The Dragoncast. November 18th 2012 marked a very special day in the history of video games as Nintendo officially started the eighth generation of home video game consoles. The Dragoncast’s very own Brian was one of the few that was able to pick up a Wii U this past weekend and on this episode he provides us his own review of the Wii U. Also be sure to join Brian, … Read more
The end is here for The Twilight Saga film series with Breaking Dawn Part 2 releasing at 10 pm on Thursday November 15. This is despite the fact that the official release date was November 16. This was something Summit allowed but they were also strict and said no showings before 10 pm, period. If you have been watching these movies from the beginning, and read the books, then you know this ending is going … Read more
Watching all 14 episodes of a short-lived but well-loved show like Firefly can be difficult, especially on the 10-year anniversary of the show. However, it is also nice to know this show still has the appeal it did all those years ago, and possibly even more now as the fan base continues to grow. Sunday November 11 was a very special day for Firefly fans as Science aired all 14 episodes in order to celebrate … Read more
The remake of Red Dawn is set to release just in time for Thanksgiving on November 21. Despite being a remake of the 1984 film, which stared Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Gray, it is not identical since the invading enemy has changed for the 2012 version. This movie has been a long time in coming since it was announced in May 2008, went into production in September 2009, and was originally scheduled for release in … Read more
This week’s The Walking Dead episode left viewers with some very interesting questions. Plus a few revelations, or was it only one revelation? No matter the main group dynamic is changing and Andrea needs to watch herself. If remember the week before, Rick lost it when he found out that Lori had delivered by C-section but not survived. This week he seems to have taken a total loss of his senses as he rushes into … Read more
Steven Spielberg is about to give the world another epic true story film with the upcoming Lincoln. This biographical war drama is not only directed by the famous man but also produced and has an all-star cast for the latest movie about the President who abolished slavery and united the nation. While the film is based on Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, a biography written by Doris Kearns Goodwin, it only … Read more
If you haven’t seen the last two episodes of The Walking Dead, stop reading right now, go watch them, and then come back. Unless you are one of those people who don’t mind spoilers, then read on. Last week we finally got to see Michonne and Andrea’s story and boy was it, interesting. Merle, who was thought to be dead by the group after Rick left him handcuffed to a pipe where Walkers found him, … Read more
The Twilight Saga film series is coming to an end next month with Breaking Dawn Part 2. This finale will have just as much hype, if not more, than the final movie from the Harry Potter series last year. While it may seem odd to be thinking about a movie this far in advance, it actually isn’t in this case. The plot of the final movie is from the book of the same name, which … Read more
While I never thought The Walking Dead was for a young crowd, this season is proving beyond a doubt it’s not. Heck I would go so far as to say, it’s not for the faint of heart either since the blood, gore, and death is currently taking center stage. Of course, how could it be less bloody when the circumstances are even direr now than when the show began? Humanity is dwindling quickly. Hershel’s life … Read more
Episode two of The Vampire Diaries was even better than the first. So many things happened that it’s hard to know which is the most disturbing at this point. Plus this is the first time almost all of them have been in the crosshairs of someone. Elena is not adjusting well to being a vampire since her body is rejecting all blood except straight from the vein human blood. I never thought a vampire could … Read more

Dark, devastating and exciting all at the same time! The Official Iron Man 3 trailer shows Tony Stark under attack emotionally as well as physically reeling from an apparent event/attack against New York. We see his Iron Man suits being destroyed in one scene, his home being bombarded by helicopter missiles and even one of his stolen suits (presumably) startling Pepper Potts and him awake in his own bed at night. Watch the Iron Man … Read more
Hey there. Looking for a fun filled family flick to catch with the family? Then look no further than Sony and Columbia Pictures latest animated film, Hotel Transylvania. I caught this film this weekend and I was pleasantly surprised by the plot and presentation of the film. Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg team up and lend their voices to this great story of parental love and a monster bash. So lets take a look at … Read more

If you have not seen the season 3 premier of The Walking Dead, stop reading right now; this has all kinds of spoilers. For those who did watch it, were you shocked and relieved to see the time passage? I know for me that has been weighing on my mind since the first season when the show seemed to be a day to day or hour to hour thing. Seeing Lori very pregnant was a … Read more
The fifth and final season of Fringe has premiered and is picking up where the shark-jumping episode of season four, Letters of Transit, left off. This last season of the science fiction series will only be a thirteen-episode season, much to the chagrin of its fans, which will hopefully give the show a good, plausible ending. If you haven’t seen the first two episodes yet (I was a little behind myself) then you might be … Read more
If you have seen any of the previews for season 4 of The Vampire Diaries, then you know that Elena is refusing to become a vampire after dying in the season 3 finale and everyone finding out she had been given vampire blood to heal her. While fans may be upset that it looks like she might die, have no fear, if she did the show would be over and we wouldn’t have a season … Read more
