I swear, during these two weeks I had a hard time keeping track of what day it was: Two days of vacation (but back home, to be used for Christmas shopping); Christmas; two days at work; weekend; two days at work; New Year's Day; two days working fro...

Not shown: The episode of The Blacklist that aired Monday was the first half of a pretty darn good Joe Carnahan action movie. Shame someone else handled the back end. Stubless: Watching the Korean Oldboy on Blu-ray (Monday the 2nd) and the Hind...

Busy week, and I really didn't even get to everything I wanted. For instance, I had ideas about getting to Boston Common in time to catch something in the 7pm slot before the great big Doctor Who: Day of the Doctor 50th Anniversary Special at 10pm...

Some long days and some days when work went just the right length to screw plans up, but at least an interesting week. Stubless: An Adventure in Space and Time at about 7-ish on Sunday the 24th. It's a TV movie, but considering there will be a ti...

It's a good week for a movie blogger when there's reason to write about what interests you and be reasonably curtabout what doesn't. This week, for instance, there wasn't a whole to say about the first thing I saw, Monday's About Time, that necess...

Can you tell baseball season's over and the fall TV slate is uninspiring by the sheer volume of tickets on this page? Stubless: Inside Llewyn Davis, Brattle Theatre, 7 November 2013, 7:30pm Kind of busy. and that's using Wednesday to hit the co...

Last post talking about how watching baseball cuts into the movie-watching for a while. But, hey, The Red Sox won the World Series and that is awesome. So, that's why the no movies Monday and Wednesday; those were the games where Jon Lester once...

Four movies worth writing about last week. Would have been more, but baseball and birthdays and such. I honestly don't know what I'll do with my evenings in a couple of days when the World Series is over. Stubless: Machete Kills, 27 October, 1:...

Ask anybody; I was the optimistic guy in every conversation about the Red Sox last year, but I sure as heck didn't expect to have any of their tickets in my scrapbook during mid-October. Sometimes things turn out pretty good, though, and you have...

The relatively abundant white space on this page doesn't let on just how much I was wearing myself out over the course of the weekend. I was dead tired afterward. The week started off, as is rapidly becoming traditional, with the Gathr Preview sc...

My birthday was Wednesday. On Friday, the Sox played their first playoff game in a few years and Gravity came out, so I had no problem celebrating then, especially since everybody (rightfully) thinks of the 2nd as my now-seven-year-old niece's birth...

Not a busy week, but makes up for it by being pretty good. Stubless: We Are What We Are, Thursday 19 September 2013, 7:30pm, Regal Fenway #2 ... Although, I suppose you could say I did have a stub for that, in the form of the piece of paper taped...

Quiet week - actually quieter than I'd like, but that's how it works sometimes. Things started off well enough, with Closed Circuit on Monday - not a great movie, but decent enough. It was odd watching it after pulling the first couple episodes o...

Shortish week because of the holiday, so I spent some time lollygagging at home and parceling my movie-watching out, for the most part. Stubless: The rest of online screeners I watched fromt Fantasia: The Grand Heist on Monday morning, Horror St...

You know, I don't know that this week was actually that much busier than a typical week, it's just that all the places I went had great big tickets: Stubless: I started going through the online screeners for the films I couldn't get to at Fantasi...
