The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies – Review
Being a completionist (and a masochist simultaneously), I decided to finish up Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit series with the final film as it came out on iTunes today. I wrote a pretty scathing review for the first one and didn’t bother writing up a review for the second one, despite having seen it. So how…

Megan is Missing Review
Some sadistic jerk in from one of the Twitch streams I subscribe to made a suggestion to check out Megan Is Missing because the streamer enjoys “fuck up things.” Since I haven’t seen a movie in a while (at least a non-repeat), I decided to hang out and give this thing a try. If you…

X-Men: Days of Future Past Review
I managed to hit the gym and decided afterward that my reward would be to check out X-Men: Days of Future Past. As a long time X-Men fan (especially for Storm, whom I profess infinite geek love for), I was eager to check this movie out after seeing the gorgeous previews and hearing the clamors…

Since my gaming rig died and the time to fix it is an unknown quantity at this time, I decided to continue my distraction with Baldur’s Gate 2 by getting the Enhanced Edition for my Macbook Pro. I’m actually quite happy that they had a Mac version since I’m at the point in my life…

Having done all the encounters at least at the LFR (and the later ones at the Flex level) level, I want to present some thoughts on this expansion’s raiding tiers.

World of Warcraft: Getting to Know the Windwalker Monk
As I continue to go through the gear progression for my Windwalker Monk, I started to really appreciate how this class/spec is put together. Thus far, I’ve managed to go up to Siege of Orgrimmar wing 1 successfully and feel I have quite a few of the basic play style for this class/spec down and…

World of Warcraft: Siege of Orgrimmar Review
I’m starting to farm Siege of Orgrimmar at the LFR and somewhat at the Flex level. Having now done all the bosses, I wanted to delve into some thoughts on the Siege of Orgrimmar, including what was good, bad, rating the fights from difficulty to fun.

World of Warcraft: Overall Mist of Pandaria Evaluation
With the expansion coming to a close, I wanted to look at the whole picture for Mist of Pandaria. While there may be a patch or two prior to the next expansion, it’s pretty much a lock that more than likely there will be no new major content patches as the Siege of Orgrimmar along…

Symfony 2 Impressions Thus Far
Although I gave Ruby on Rails a small try a little while back, I ended up not choosing it as my framework for the moment mostly because I felt that there was a double learning curve in familiarizing myself not only with the Rails framework but Ruby as well. I still would like to give…
