July 1st, 2011 · 2 Comments

This post is part of the 25th Dismarks Carnival. Before I begin this review, I should make it quite clear that I loved London.  UK readers, I love your country with its two Cadbury flake bars for 80p.  I loved the history.  I loved the fizzy lemonade.  I love that your country can make a [...]

Legoland Florida-I think it looks meh for adults…

May 25th, 2011 · 1 Comment

How ’bout you?  Legoland Florida will be opening on October 15 where Cypress Gardens used to be in Winterland, FL.  I was kind of curious to see it, as I had seen people citing Knight’s Tournament in Legoland California pre-Wizarding World of Harry Potter.  However, it looks pretty meh. To be honest, I’m not a [...]

I saw Hop last week…

April 18th, 2011 · 1 Comment

It was ok.  There were definitely some funny parts (and some adult-fan extras I’ll get to), but I’d say it’s RedBox-worthy. Some plot points squicked me a little (both the adult with whom I saw the movie and myself were bugged that Carlos the Underling has a Spanish accent, although TVTropes points out that it [...]

There’s an (Android) App for that: Ridehopper

September 16th, 2010 · No Comments

I have to begin by admitting that I know this review is going to have a flaw:  Ridehopper is the only theme park app I’ve ever tried, so I really don’t have anything to compare it to, you know?  That said, I was pretty meh on Ridehopper.  I paid the $.99 to upgrade it to [...]
