Movie Reviews?
I haven’t been very active on here… mainly because I’ve been struggling to find a good purpose for what I want to accomplish with Tumblr. I’m thinking I’m going to start using it for posting reviews of movies. I might blog on here from time to time as well, but I’m notoriously bad for keeping up with regular blog posts.
If anyone’s still following me on...

As a devoted fan of the original series, I’ve had some reservations about a reboot of the series but after seeing the trailers that were released a little while ago, I’ve been pretty excited to see what they were going to do with it. Here are...

tinycartridge:
Viz Media announced at Anime Expo that it’s picked up the American distribution rights to the Professor Layton animated movie, Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva.
The company didn’t disclose a date for the release, but if (like me) you haven’t been motivated enough to track down the Japanese or UK versions, you can probably stand to wait until whenever Viz gets around to...

Steam is coming to the PS3! →
twistedjoystick:
I’m both shocked, and not-so shocked by this announcement. The PS3 is a good choice for consoles to use to host Steam (the built in HD space is the biggest reason IMHO), and with the success of Hulu Plus/Netflix/Whatever music service Sony is using serves as a selling point.
