OMG!! How could I forget one of my favorites! The series finale to Lost ! I loved the show the first season and then after that, it started to go off the rails. It started to become the same old, same old. They introduced a new character, Ben Linus (a wonderful actor, Michael Emerson) and that chara...

I really liked the finale to Mad Men and wrote about it in the 2014 TV shows thread. I know some folks who have voiced dislike with the it but I thought it stayed true to Don and the characters. My favorite series finale is probably Six Feet Under which came off a few wobbly seasons (another show th...

Lomm, My first recommendation is the Hollywood Heritage Museum on Highland Avenue. It is the old DeMille barn that Cecil used for filming "The Squaw Man" and has been rescued by Hollywood Heritage and turned into a museum devoted to the early years of Hollywood. My second recommendation is...

After having helped establish the dystopian view of the future in the original Max trilogy, Miller kicks it up a very big notch and seems to be sayi...

If you love George Miller films, are a fan of the Mad Max films and/or think Road Warrior is the best of the trilogy or just love action adventure films, RUN , don't walk, to get in line for Mad Max: Fury Road . Saw this film the other night at a pre-release studio screening and fell in love with it...

We saw Fast and Furious 7 last week and really enjoyed it. We've only seen F&F 5 all the way through and only the middle and end of F&F 6, but we had no problem following the back story. The filmmakers did a really good job of handling actor Paul Walker's death in a moving tribute at the end...
