    Mission Impossible 4 – Ghost Protocol Trailer

    June 30th, 2011 | Movies, Trailer | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, Mission Impossible 4 Ghost Protocol trailer was released yesterday. And I’m embarrassed to admit I kinda fancy seeing it. It looks all snazzy and slick and shit and I can even ignore the fact it has Tom Cruise in it. Because let’s face it – when was the last time Tom Cruise was [...]

    Leverage is back!

    June 28th, 2011 | Trailer, US TV | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, summer shows are back with vengeance. Thank heavens! For a moment there I thought I’d have to read or get some fresh air or something. Ah I’m only joking – I’ve been out with the dog at 6:00am this morning and if you are stumped for something to read can I recommend the [...]

    Did you know? – Royal Pains

    June 24th, 2011 | Comedy, Drama, Uncategorized, US TV | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, I miss me some Royal Pains. When you think about it is a perfect summer show – wonderful location, light and frothy story lines, pretty cast who wear nice to look at clothes – what’s there not to like? Luckily Royal Pains returns next week (the season premieres on June 29th in case [...]

    June 22nd, 2011 | Movies, Trailer | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, it’s so hot where I am at I cannot muster much energy to sit at the keyboard (I had the best intentions to see Falling Skies, but I’ve just haven’t gotten around to it yet). So I’ll just leave you with the last Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part trailer. But you’ve [...]

    The Killing – seriously?!

    June 20th, 2011 | Crime, US TV | bertas | No Comments

    Image: Chris Large/AMC Dear readers, I have shared my enthusiasm for the Killing. And I liked the pilot and thought it had promise. But by fourth or fifth episode the show started to drag on and not make much sense at.all. No, I didn’t make a list why some of the things didn’t make sense [...]

    Compare and contrast – The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

    June 17th, 2011 | Movies, Trailer | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, down below you can find the new trailer for David Fincher’s version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It looks slick. And dark obviously. But it does make me wonder whether The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will go under Fincher’s definition of “movies” or “films” (you can find his quote towards [...]

    Dear readers, I’ve watched a few movies this weekend and found myself a tad annoyed to be honest. Now I’m not going to tell you which ones because I do not want to spoil anything for you but… The thing is I love me a good thriller. I do. But it feels that of late [...]

    Super 8 – trailer

    June 10th, 2011 | Movies, Trailer | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, Twitter erupted in Super 8 buzz yesterday. I heard of the movie, I knew it was J. J. Abrams project but I didn’t really pay much attention to see what it is about. I know it’s kind of silly but I’d rather go into the movie theater not knowing much about the movie [...]

    June 8th, 2011 | Feature, Movies, Trailer | bertas | No Comments

    Dear readers, the other day I was watching Hanna. Have you seen it? What did you think? I have to say I enjoyed it immensely. I loved the story, the cast, I loved it visually and I loved the music. The soundtrack was entirely composed by Chemical Brothers. And as it always is with music [...]
