"Here Comes the Boom"
Last week I reviewed Here Comes the Honey Boo Boo (or some such thing) for the Augusta Gazette. You can read it by clicking here. I'll be taking this week off to catch up on all the Twilight movies in preparation for my Breaking Dawn - Part 2 review. I could read the books, but is one review worth that much pain? The answer is no.

"Frankenweenie"
Last month I started writing reviews for my hometown paper, the Augusta Gazette. The local theatre plays a different first-run movie almost every week, and I'll be reviewing each of those. This week's feature presentation: Tim Burton's Frankenweenie. It was originally a 30-minute short, starring Barret Oliver from The Neverending Story and directed by Burton the year before he made his feature directorial debut, Pee-wee's Big Adventure (one of my all-time favorites). I highly recommend you check out the short, which is included as a special feature on the 2010 blu-ray of The Nightmare Before Christmas. The new Frankenweenie is in some ways an improvement, which I discuss in my review for the Gazette. You can read it by clicking here. Below you can listen to the rather delightful song that plays over the end credits.
