The Artificial Dawn Condition Watch
Last weekend my home was without power for over 48 hours. I wasn’t alone – Saturday Ottawa had somewhere close to 145,000 homes without power, 28,000 of them in my region/suburb. The good thing? Along with spending a lot of … Continue reading

A Few Short Reviews – Pharaohs, Expanse, Unlocked and Murderbot!
Unlocked This espionage/thriller was spoiled by really weak writing. Director Michael Apted is a seasoned professional, and the performances here are all solid, but the bedrock just isn’t solid. This has a conspiracy plot that does not bear any level … Continue reading

Blade Runner 2049: Thoughts
I go see very few movies in the theatre, but a sequel to Blade Runner? That had to have the full cinematic experience. A couple of friends also wanted to check it out, so I dropped my money for a … Continue reading

Killjoys: A Quick Review
I’m on episode three of season one of Killjoys, a Syfy original about interplanetary bounty hunters. It’s interplanetary rather than interstellar because these bounty hunters work a collection of four planets known as the Quad or the J Colonies. It’s … Continue reading
Rogue One, I Think I Love You
Okay, so it’s Christmas morning and I have a bit of time, so let’s talk about Rogue One. This first part will be spoiler-free for those who haven’t yet seen the movie yet. The second part will include spoilers as … Continue reading
Star Trek Beyond – A Review
I was very lucky yesterday to get to see an opening/advanced screening of Star Trek Beyond (does it have a colon? It should probably have a colon). Although among those I viewed it with, mine was the minority opinion, I … Continue reading
They Dark Live in Matrix City – the Game
I’ve been working on some writing while taking a break from my academic studies, but I probably haven’t put enough time into my work as I should. That’s because I’m addicted to Saint’s Row IV. I picked up Saint’s Row … Continue reading

Terminator: Genisys
Last night my wife and I compromised and it was a huge mistake. She had selected some possible movies, and all of them were dramas. I was tired – had a scare with my dad who lives 6 hours away … Continue reading

Star Wars: the Force Awakens
I had Monday off, and so the whole family went to see Star Wars: the Force Awakens. This is going to be a spoiler-free review, but that also means it’s going to be full of vague mentions, so sorry for … Continue reading
