New Buffy Movie... Will it Suck?
So when it was annouced that Warner Bros, was rebooting the series for the big screen, I was excited. But that excitement was cut down like a claymore to the kneecap when I heard that Joss Whedon was not involved with the project. The answer to the title's question is pretty obvious... the new Buffy movie will suck.

#1 Ellen Page - Action movie cred -Inception

This may surprise some but there is something about Ellen's witty sense of deadpan humour that I think can translate into a good quality Buffy character. She can definitely be feisty too. In Inception she showed that she had the confidence and swagger to hold her own in a big action movie. Plus she is a cute little damsel.
Obviously she will have to get to the gym and work on her martial arts, but thats not much of an issue since stunt doubles will do most of the cool, and complicated fight scenes anyways.
So those are my two picks for the next Buffy. Who would you rather have? Let me know. If you have any better suggestions, throw their name into the hat and let's hear why.

Walking Dead = 28 Days Later... Why Bother?
This Friday, I got a text from my little brother telling me about a show that "You Gotta SEE!!!!" Messages like these I take with a grain of salt because my brother and I have vastly different tastes and opinions. There have been many times that he has hyped up a show to Lost: The Finale type proportions, only for me to question his sanity after watching his awful suggestion But every once in awhile he will show me a gem that I would have otherwise completely ignored.
So when I sat down too watch his show Walking Dead, I did so having no idea what to expect.
But when I saw the main character wake up from his coma, alone in a trashed hospital, I immediately thought of the movie 28 Days Later. And as the show went on I got the feeling that I was watching a less grittier, suburban version of the movie. When the characters started talking about Atlanta as the refugee city that all of the survivors were trying to get to (very similar to the destination that the main characters in 28 Days Later were trying to reach), I thought to myself "why would I invest my time in a show and sit down through all those hours when I saw the movie that summed up the whole deal in under 2 hour?" So I said "that's a wrap for me", told my bro that he "struck out again" and went to bed about forty minutes into the show. I was definitely unimpressed and was pretty sure I was done with the show.
But the next night, when I arrived at my place, my roommates were all getting ready for a "Walking Dead Marathon". I was pretty surprised, since I know that they are bigger movie buffs than I am and had definitely seen 28 Days Later. Apparently there is no controversy since the book that the show is based on came out before the movie.
They all sang the praises of the show and were definitely surprised when I told them I was unimpressed. But their enthusiasm for the Walking Dead made me think that maybe I came to judgement too soon (I understand if you wouldn't hire me as executioner). So I need your help. Should I give Walking Dead another look? Or have I made a good call and would just be wasting my time?
Just add your comments below and let me know.
For those of you who don't know what I am talking about, take a look at the intro and trailer below and see if you can catch the similarities.
