E3 2013: Nintendo



WARNING: LARGE WALL OF TEXT APPROACHING
Full disclosure. I’m a Nintendo fanboy. When I was younger you couldn't have paid me to have a Sony or Microsoft game product under my roof. I’m not as bad as I used to be. Hell, I even own a PS2 and Xbox 360 now. However, when push comes to shove, I will back Big N to the grave. Naturally this means that I was super excited for the recent Nintendo Direct that came out of E3. At first I was a little skeptical with the fact that Nintendo was eschewing the traditional big show, but after all has been said and done, I’m very pleased with the result.

Arrested Development Season 4 Review


Like many people, I discovered Arrested Development (AD) years after it was on the air through the DVDs. It quickly became one of my favorite shows. The crazy characters, complexity of the writing, and absurdity of the plot all meshed together to make a very enjoyable viewing experience. As soon as I finished season 3, I scoured the internet looking for any information on the fabled movie that they would be making. At that time it was still in development hell. I waited with baited breath for any trickle of news to come out of the cast and creators. Naturally I was super excited when it was announced that a fourth season was finally going to be made. Netflix and Hulu entered a bidding war for the rights to air the new season, with Netflix (my prefered poison) edging out the competition. And now, at long last the day has arrived! We have new episodes of one of the greatest shows ever.

Discussion: Star Trek Into Darkness: Trekkie vs Casual Fan



So, as one of our first posts here on Non-Ram, Alex thought it would be cool to sit down with me and have a discussion about the new Star Trek film, Star Trek Into Darkness.

Just as a little background, I have only a passing familiarity with Star Trek. I mostly grew up on Star Wars and have only really seen the new JJ Abrams Trek films.  This is a whole new world that I am learning about as we go.

Alex, on the other hand, grew up with Star Trek, watching reruns of The Original Series (TOS) with his mom, and even watching some original runs of The Next Generation (TNG.) He told me how he remembers the first time he saw Wrath of Khan and how he fell in love with everything about it. He’s been a huge fan ever since, and will always love Star Trek.

Alex thought it would be fun to get the opinion of a Trek fan as well as a non-Trek fan to see exactly how Abrams' films work for both sets of viewers.  I agreed and below you will find some excerpts from our conversation. I hope you enjoy.
