The Week (of 1.30.11)

Week 5 of 2011 follows up the release of Dead Space 2 with...well nothing impressive. Stick with your TV sets this week folks since not much else that is new will be gracing the shelves. If you're looking for a James Cameron film to tide you over until Avatar 2 news starts filtering in again, check out Sanctum 3D. Otherwise, sit tight, a new month is on the horizon and hopefully with it will come more awesomeness that we're expecting out of 2011.

The Week (of 1.16.11)

Week 3 of 2011 means you better make sure your couch is ready to be sat on for an extended period of time, or your Hulu account will be seeing a lot of activity. This week marks the return of many students to college TV shows that have been on vacation. Tune in. As for movies, I honestly don't know much about these films except that Tommy Lee Jones is in one and Natalie Portman is in another.

Dream on.
