    1. Sounds like I will like "Lockout." :) I'm bummed to hear "Wrath of the Titans" was weak! I am so looking forward to seeing it, and the director had said he was sorry for letting people down with the first movie and would do a better job with this one.

Chain Mail Bikinis Don't Count As Armor, and Other Thoughts (Mild Spoilers)

Comics Alliance  calls it "The story Disney should have been telling for the past 20 years," and while I believe Disney plays its part in a healthy mix of fairy tales for children, every little girl (and boy, for that matter) should read a comic like "Princeless."  "Princeless," from  Action Lab Entertainment , introduces us to Adrienne, a princess who is not interested in waiting around in her tower to be rescued. A prince even shows up at one point to do just that, and she turns him away, saying, "Don't let the dragon hit you on the way out." Love it. 

Book Review: The Graveyard Book (No Spoilers)

My friends, both at work and in other circles, are kind enough to lend me books on a very regular basis. I know that when they lend me books, it is because that book impressed them, and they want to share the experience with me. This is what good friends do for each other. That being said, a couple weeks ago, I was thrilled when I returned the last book I had borrowed, because it meant that for the first time in a long time, I was free to begin reading any book of my choosing. Now, I was an English major, and I am a writer, and a writer's best fuel is usually reading, so this means that my  Goodreads  "To read" list is always about 80 times as long as my "Read" list. There really isn't an end in sight to the list of stories that I want to crack open and devour. But you have to start somewhere. So I took a very graciously gifted bookstore gift card, headed down to said bookstore just as giddy as can be, and headed straight for my pre-selected targets.

A Galaxy Big Enough for All of Us: A Brief Defense of "The Rise of Skywalker" (Spoilers)

After seeing "Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker," the final installment in the Skywalker saga, I left the theater awash in a mix of euphoria at being born at the right time to personally experience something so momentous and also in the inevitable bit of melancholy over the close of a story that has captivated my imagination and my heart almost all my life.  I'm sure there were many Star Wars fans like me, but, like me, if they have any exposure at all to the Internet, might have had their Star Wars geek glow promptly stomped on by critics both professional and amateur, eager to tear apart what we all have to recognize was a nearly impossible creative endeavor.  I say impossible because Star Wars has millions of fans across the world, all with their own favorite characters and films, and all with their own perspective on the saga's history and the direction they hoped it would go.  There are spoilers below, so only proceed if you have seen the film!
