From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who enjoys the oatmeal cookies his wife bakes, but has a hard time keeping them down when discussing this subject… Some news was made very recently about a Christian film company who created a film that was given an R rating from the MPAA. Peter T. Chattaway wrote an article in his Patheos blog Film Chat about My Son, the film in question (you should check out the article). In it, he visits the idea that... Read more
From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who just saw The World’s End and really wants a pint… Get your bug bombing tents out and practice your best “Am I under arrest” delivery, because it’s time once again to travel back into the world of chemistry teacher turned drug emperor Walter White and his happy band of miscreants, of which none are truly happy. It’s time to break bread over Breaking Bad, and I am more than willing to help... Read more
A few nights ago, the Pittsburgh Pirates won their 81st game of the 2013 MLB regular season, ensuring that the team will not finish the year with more losses than wins for the first time since 1992. That was twenty-one years ago, for those of you non-math types. Before we had the freaking Internet (as we know it today, at least). Those born during the last Pirates winning season are now legally allowed to drink. And between these two winning... Read more
From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who can’t figure out how to get the smell out of the carpet… I hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day weekend. Of if you live in Canada, your weekend. Since Sunday night may have otherwise been occupied with cookouts, gatherings, and general revelry at the fact that you didn’t have to work on Monday, I’m assuming a lot of people didn’t catch the latest episode of Breaking Bad, “Rabid Dog”. I know... Read more

From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who would like everyone to know that he doesn’t necessarily condone harsh language, but it does exist in places on this page… The art of television viewing has morphed in the last 10 years. More and more, people are watching their favorite shows on the go, through subscription services, or even through the media center knows as Xbox. Almost every DVD and Blu-Ray disc sold today comes with a way to... Read more
By now, we’ve all had a few days to digest Miley Cyrus’ so-called performance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. The general consensus among most carbon-based life forms is that it was disgusting, revolting, and/or degrading. Others, celebrities mostly, have expressed shock, while still others have said it was perhaps nothing more than uncomfortable to watch. I’ll admit, I did not watch the VMAs live. I haven’t for several years as its continued to degenerate into more of a... Read more
From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who still hasn’t recovered from the weekend… Will Hank and Marie cut Skyler out of their lives? Will Jesse say anything to the police or the DEA? How will Todd and Lydia increase the quality of the meth they produce if Walt refuses to get involved again? Is Skyler under arrest? Here, in all its guts and glory, is my real-time DVR commentative review of the Breaking Bad episode “Confessions.” #SpoilerAlert.... Read more
From Geek Goes Rogue TV Editor Zach W. Lorton, who can’t get enough of these plantain chips… Mad Men gave hipsters something to dress like at parties, and gave SNL a gem in St. Louisan Jon Hamm. The Walking Dead gave geeks and zombie lovers a great human drama in a apocalyptic setting, something that the television world has needed for a long time. Breaking Bad kind of snuck up on everyone, even though Bryan Cranston won an Emmy for his portrayal of... Read more
(Our previous coverage of DC’s Trinity War can be found here: Part One, Part Two and Part Three) (Oh, and I can’t tell you you many spoilers are down below.) DC Comics Trinity War has ended with an explosive bang, and wrapped up with Geoff Johns’ answer to the knotty question: “where does evil come from?” Before we get to his answer, let’s go back to two companion issues, Pandora #3 and The Phantom Stranger #11. If readers will remember,... Read more
