Love and Other Drugs (2010–112 mins). J. Gyllenhal, A. Hathaway As if “How Do You Know” wasn’t a missleading trailer and marketing misdirection enough, here comes “Love and Other Drugs”! Yet another movie that leads us to believe it’s a laugh a minute romantic comedy. Then here comes the drama train. Again here we have […]

How Do You Know (2010– 121 mins) P. Rudd, R. Witherspoon, O. Wilson, J. Nicholson We are starting to get an overabundance of movies which are not totally romantic comedies but the rom-com-dramas.

The trailer basically gives you almost ALL the back story you could hope for. Why do I love this movie? Well, first Green Lantern is among my favorite DC heroes, and secondly […]

So as I get another year older (only a few more to 40!), and yet none too wiser, I sit here and think of the many things  I am wishing for this year as I blow out my proverbial candles on a great day in GeekJock life. From pop culture , gaming, sports, work, family, […]
