When it comes to comic books my favorites have to be the Invisibles by Grant Morrison (phenomenal writer), Hellboy, Hellblazer, Lenore (Roman Dirge you have the gift), Squee and Johney the Homicidal Maniac. However my taste for good story can range from Superman to Futurama. There was a time when I owned a business that sold comic book paraphernalia: t-shirts, jewelry and the such. The economy can be harsh to small businesses like I had.
My gaming trends range as well. I am mostly a shooter gal Mass Effect, Halo, Gears of War, Rainbow Six, Call of Duty, Bioshock, Borderlands but also enjoy the lighter side: Lego Star Wars, Rayman Raving Rabbids, and Grand Theft Auto. (yes I thought it was funny) I have been playing since the time of ColecoVision ( sooo long) and love the industry. I find it inspiring with what they can do now compared to even 10 years ago. I have yet to find a video game based on a movie that is good (surprise, surprise) and wish they could make a half way decent video game movie. But that’s for later…
My movie tastes tend to lie with the Sci Fi/Horror genre. I have been disappointed so many times over the years when it comes to these kinds of movies. There are occasionally the surprise movie trilogies: the Evil Dead, LOTR, the Matrix, the FIRST trilogy of Star Wars, and Resident Evil. It does seem to be improving in the Sci Fi arena though with Serenity, Batman: the Dark Knight (don’t know if I would consider this Sci Fi though), District 9, and Star Trek. Mind you there are so many older movies that broke ground and made the movies amazing to go to: Aliens, Blade Runner, etc. but that again is another conversation for a later date.
So here’s to the movies the movies that made us love to go to the movies: Game over man! Game over!
To the TV shows that captured our hearts and minds: So Say We All!
Not only am I way into comics, gaming and movies I also love TV. Well, what I would consider good television th at is. We will start with one of the best TV shows of all time. The re-imagined Battlestar Galactica. This has to have been one of the most explosive, inginuitive, exciting, spell binding shows to hit the small screen. Not only did they make the mold when they made the show they shattered it so no one else could follow. Did she like it? you ask yourself. Yes! and So Say We All. The shows that paved the way for revolutionary television such as this were The X-Files, Millennium, Firefly, Carnival, and of course…Buffy. 
Television is our escape, our home away from home with a set of the most dysfunctional family members we could ever wish for. Making and being a part of something that makes people passionate, angry, happy, devastated, elated, in essence running us through the gambit of emotions is what being a part of the industry is all about. You have to love what you do or people won’t. We need the distraction, the get away from the things that might be plaguing us, and movies and TV does that for us all. We marvel at the universe and wonder how we can be someones superhero or savior. To be a part of that is to be a part of magic. We all deserve to get away and time and time again these TV sho ws and so many movies have helped me do it. It shouldn’t be about fame and fortune, it should be about being a part of something that can change people’s lives and how they look at the world.
on a side note: I no longer go into the woods for fear of just about anything wanting to kill me sooooo maybe I’ve watched too many horror movies.
