Have you been naughty or nice this year? Perhaps a bit of both? Since this is going to be our last Roundtable before the holiday, let’s just come right out and ask: What do you want for Christmas?
I said last week that the ‘Fringe’ episode in which Olivia finally returned home from the alternate universe felt very much like a finale, or at least a “fall finale.” I was surprised to see one more episod...
I’m a little delinquent in posting about this. When I attended Blu-Con last month, I met a couple of guys at lunch who were covering the conference for a home theater podcast called ‘HD Nation’. They seemed like ...

‘Tis the season to be spreading holiday cheer. Hollywood does its part every year by cranking out a host of holiday-themes movies. In this week’s Roundtable, we look at some of our favorites.
