You might say I'm a firm believer in the Narrative Paradigm. I'm a storyteller. If I'm not watching a film, I'm reading a book or writing. Laughing is the most important thing in the world, so I do my best to infect everyone with humor. I also enjoy the stuff the cool kids like, but my true identity is a sarcastic, ordinary nerd who strives to be extraordinary.

Movie Review – All Work All Play: The Pursuit of eSports Glory. It’s All Fun and Games Until Someone Gets Paid.
Remember those endless nights playing Mario Kart when you would have tournaments until 2AM? Do you recall how it felt beating your friends and knowing you were the best? What if I told you people are actually getting paid (yes, paid) for doing that very same thing with their favorite games?…

The End of the Tour Review. Straightforward, but Deep in Thought.
Sometimes, we want something simple; nothing complex, just straight to the point. No need for explosions, intricate plotlines, or a monumental ending. Just tell it like it is without any fluff.

Backstrom – “Dragon Slayer” Review. Been There, Seen That
The two most commonly aired shows today are either about detectives/cops or the medical field. Somewhere in the human psyche, we are interested in people who save lives and/or investigate the mystery of the week. Backstrom is a detective series that tries to be fun, witty, gritty, and interesting, but it just tries too hard.

12 Monkeys -“Pilot” Review. Come With Me If You Want ALL OF US to Live
Coming to a flat screen/laptop/smartphone near you, is the new Syfy series 12 Monkeys, based on Terry Gilliam’s film of the same name. Just so you know kids, time travel is not full of fun and games like Doctor Who makes it out to be. At least that’s what we are shown when watching 12 Monkeys. It’s painful, confusing, full of rules, and death.

The Interview Movie Review. Disappointing but Patriotic
Let’s face it, deep down we all want to see The Interview. Even my parents want to watch it. It’s not a common occurrence to have the President of the United States talking fervently about a film due to the controversy surrounding the subject matter. With Sony Pictures Studios getting hacked by North Korea over The Interview, it seems there are political ramifications involved.
