TV Review: The X-Files 1×7 “Ghost In The Machine”
In this episode of X-Files, the show does a pretty horrible rip off of Space Odyssey and dates itself worse than ever before. Well, X-Files, they can’t all be winners. Between the hilarious computer problems and bad music, for the first time I could absolutely tell this was the 90s. Oh well. Better luck next time!
TV Review: Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters – “Rebellion”

Movie Review: Jurassic Park 3-D
While 3-D still sometimes seems like a gimmick, Jurassic Park 3-D is actually made better because of it. Rather than get a standard 3-D update where the special effects get the treatment, the entire film was re-done with it. It looks fantastic. The depth of field created by the 3-D makes the dinosaur encounters much more terrifying.

TV Review: Lost Girl 3×11 “Adventures In Fae-bysitting”
In which I continue to be disappointed by this season. Maybe once upon a time these one-off episodes worked well, but now they’re starting to feel like a distraction from the bigger questions. Who is Bo’s Dad? Why is Hale acting strange? What’s Tamsin’s part in this? Join me with mulling over the episode.
TV Review: The Following 1×11 “Whips and Regret”
Previously on The Following: Claire voluntarily went with the cult to get a chance to see Joey. Ryan was heartbroken because they said they loved each other right before. Emma left boyfriend Jacob and other boyfriend Paul to die. Jacob had to mercy kill Paul, so he’s sort of checked out now and becoming as creepy a guy as everyone else. Roderick, Joe’s second in command, started showing signs of not liking how power was shifting with the group. The FBI sucks at their job a lot. Oh and we just found out that Ryan’s ex Molly is one of the cult. Unsurprising. We were introed to a new follower Vince who is only important to this episode. I usually like the one-off followers we meet and their own brand of crazy, but this one fell a little flat. Plus the episode highlighted a few of the weaknesses in the show, including the FBI’s ineptitude, Ryan’s instability, and a sort of ‘where are we going with this?’ feeling. But on with the episode.
