Local Vlizzards: Preliminary “Final Table” Documentary Montage
A lot of you probably already know that I have been working on a documentary about amateur poker. Some of you may even know that when we were in Las Vegas filming the Amateur Texas Hold’em Championship, I made it all the way to the Final Table! You know what that means, despite my initial […]

Disclaimer: this is not an endorsement of Mr. Zach Braff’s film or a plea to back his movie, I merely find this piece of news very interesting.

Sometimes he is so restrained in withholding knowledge, Oblivion becomes an unintentional, convoluted guessing game. […]
“Game of Thrones: Walk of Punishment” Review: Punishment Indeed and Catelyn Stark’s Past
Game of Thrones was ready for more character development and action in Walk of Punishment, although it did get dark at certain moments; thankfully, these controversial acts were not shown on screen. In that same vein, I found this week’s brothel scene to be tasteful and fun, a refreshing replacement to the gratuitous, overlong, objectifying […]
