Blu-ray Review: Benny & Joon
Thanks for the couch. Um… Mike made me sleep under the sink.
By Caleb Paullus
Not being a Johnny Depp fan – oh who am I kidding, Depp is a dreamboat, even when he is portraying an eccentric cinemaphile in this romantic comedy film. Benny & Joon, originally released in 1993, is now digitally remastered in high resolution blu-ray glory! You can see every beautiful pore on Johnny Depp’s gorgeous face. I know what you are thinking, “Caleb has a boy-crush on Johnny Depp”. No that’s not the case, I’m actually the one that got a restraining order placed on him before he got one on me.
DS Game Review: Johnny Test
“I’m sorry, but your Gil is in another castle.”
Gameplay
Johnny is your typical hyper active kid. He’s usually the lab rat in the experiments of his two sisters, Mary and Susan. When he intervenes in another one involving a new high-tech gadget, he frees Mr. Wacko, Bling Bling Boy and Brain Freezer and altered Porkbelly, the town they all live in. The bad guys kidnap the sisters’ neighborhood, crush Gil Nexdor and Johnny is sent to save him.

DVD Review: Prowl
by Karl Madsen, ComicsOnline.com
She was running from her life. Now she’s running for it.
Remember all the things we were told by our parents? Don’t swim for an hour after eating. Don’t make faces like that or it’ll freeze that way. Don’t take candy from strangers. Don’t sit so close to the TV, you’ll ruin your eyes. Don’t take rides from strangers. So, how many of these are really dangerous?
The premise of Prowl has Amber (Courtney Hope – Mob Rules), who is bored with her small town life, her job as a butcher, and is being pulled to the big city life.

WonderCon 2011: Video Game Preview: Spider-Man: Edge of Time
Last year, Activision and Beenox brought us a interesting take on the spider man universe by showing us 4 different and unique takes on everyone’s favorite webslinging hero in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions. This year the developers take a more refined look at two of the versions of Spidey they toyed with last year with both Spider-Man 2099 and Amazing Spider-Man returning in Spider-Man: Edge of Time.
Blu-ray Review: Mad Men – Season Four
You may have to wait until 2012 for Season Five of the acclaimed AMC series Mad Men to return, but you can catch up on the Blu-ray edition of Mad Men – Season Four right now!
Mathew Weiner has not just lovingly and meticulously recreated the fall of 1964 and rest of l965 in the Fourth Season of Mad Men. He has created a thirteen hour movie. As it languidly unfolds it provides a window into the past giving us clues regarding the directions that the characters who inhabit this world are going to take. It just takes time, and alot of it. By the time it concludes, everyone and everything in this corner of universe will be accounted for.
Episode Highlights:
TV Review: Nikita – “Covenant”
Nikita has been a fairly inconsistant show since it began, but recently it has started to become a bit more solid. “Covenant” helps continue the consistency with a pretty interesting mid-season break return episode. This episode features the murkily-alligned Michael and his previous relationship to Nikita.
Nikita is going after the black boxes she so desperately desires once again, and to do so, she needs to capture drug lord Kasim (who has quite the past history with Michael… who wants him dead for what he has done), and trade him to Michael for one of the aformentioned black boxes. This plan quickly goes south when Kasim is not all what he seems to be (As no one really is in this show).
