The 3-D Blue Warrior Dicktail Tribe of Avatar Unseated by Weepy PenPal Suckfest of Dear John

Posted on February 7, 2010

Of all the films to unseat Avatar’s domination over the box office, I doubt Dear, John—which I hadn’t even heard of until watching cheeseball Sandy Kenyon trash it on Taxi TV last night—was the frontrunner to do so.
However, the Mighty Blue Dicktails of the Na’vi Tribe were no match for another Nicholas Sparks book about [...]

Posted on January 25, 2010

The fourth season of HBO’s social drama just keeps getting bigger. Last night we saw a trip across the country, an accident that brought two fringe cultures together (sort of), and a wild and surprising kiss.
