Finally got a chance to see “Catching Fire” today (the second of the “Hunger Games” books – and my favorite).  They did a really good job with the film and I enjoyed it quite a bit.  Of course, a few parts had to be cut for time but it was great to be back in this world with these characters and see their struggles against the oppressive government.  Down below is a music video featuring clips from both films so far along with music from the film (a great Coldplay song).  So, enjoy this and get out to see this cool movie soon!

Thor continues to hammer out the competition at the box office in it’s second week of release.  This sequel to the first film is bigger in just about every way, has lots of action and humor too.  I really enjoyed it and I think most everyone else will too – at least those that enjoy a fun, action adventure like this.  Go check it out soon and have fun!

So, it’s official.  The next film in the “Star Wars” sage will open in about two years on December 18, 2015.  It seems a long way off, but they actually will start filming this in 2014 so we should start hearing lots of next in the next few months.  Here’s the official statement from Disney & Co.

 Exciting stuff!  I’m very excited by this news.  And here’s a little fan trailer to help stir our excitement even more!

The movie “Ender’s Game” just opened in theater’s this past Friday.  I went out to see it yesterday and really enjoyed it.  I read the book several years ago and felt they do a good job adapting the story to the big screen.  Actor Asa Butterfield as Ender and Harrison Ford as his commander are both very good.  I know there is a little controversy surroudning this film but I think you can still enjoy it for what the movie has to say and it is a good adaptation of the novel.  Check out this TV spot below.

Get something sharp to wear to all those upcoming holiday parties and gatherings.  Get a brand new, awesome, geeky, Treks in Sci-Fi Polo shirt!  These super cool, dark gray, embroidered polo shirts will be the envy of all your friends and family.  Order one for yourself and maybe one for a friend too!  But just make sure to order by October 26, 2013.  Make it sew!  (Get it?  See where I went there?  Hehe!)

I saw the new film, “Gravity” in IMAX 3D yesterday and loved it.  This is one of the best movies of the year – or maybe all time.  It’s just so well done and the story is tight, the actors are terrific and it looks incredible and so very real.  I urge everyone to go see this in theaters where it will really amaze you and keep you on the edge of your seat.  I promise you will love it as much as I did.  Go see it soon!
