What I WPR’d This Week #3

FEATURED on September 21
This week is going to be a little interesting. I actually WPR’d a lot of stuff now I’m trying to recall everything that I did in a week. So, bear with me while I figure out my thoughts. This time I think it is going to be mostly devoted to how much the prolific rock band, The Beatles, seethed into everything I did this week.  

Terminator Salvation: Trial By Fire – Review

READ on September 1
Ever see a movie and even though it wrapped up it’s main plot points, you know that that world is still going on and things are happening. You’ll just never know what happened to the characters after the movie ended. The Terminator movies have been like that, there are typically huge leaps between each one, you get John Conner, a Terminator out... 

What I’ve been WPR’ing.

FEATURED on August 31
Since I’ve been going through sort of a writer’s block period. I couldn’t really come up with some such to write about. I decided that I’m going to try to talk about what I’ve been doing this week. Since the site is Watch Play Read. Thats exactly what I’ve been doing. Fancy that.  

New Lucius Fogg Novel, Tweeting it Live

READ on July 1
Dan Wickline is attempting something that I haven’t quite seen before. He is writing his new novella The Werewolves of Paddington Court: a Lucius Fogg Mystery via twitter updates. Yes, every part of his novella update will be in 140 characters or less. Essentially, you get to watch him write in a semi-live type of format. Starting today, and... 

Barnes and Noble: Comics on the CHEAP!

READ on June 22
Alright all you cheap bastards like me who don’t buy anything unless the deals are too good to be true. Barnes and Noble are unloading their graphic novel collections, and it’s not a measly $2 price drop, most are 75% to 80% price cuts. If you’ve been holding on graphic novels, now is the time to buy from the bargain bin you probably... 

Are We at a Cusp of the eReader Price Wars?

READ on June 22
I got an email yesterday from Barnes and Noble touting some new pricing changes to their Nook eReader device. It raised my eyebrows at the least because I was considering the Nook as the reader I wanted from these current options available. I was even more curious when I learned that Amazon cut nearly $75 off the price of the Kindle. Are these responses... 

Hey, There Aren’t Any Robots in This! #1

READ, WATCH on June 11
First things first, my name is Ben and I am your friendly neighborhood podcaster from The Adequately-Sized Podcast. My goal is to introduce you (and myself) to movies from yesteryear, be they classics or… not so classic. In most cases, there will be no robots, and I’m not sorry. To Kill a Mockingbird is based on the novel by Harper Lee, directed... 

The Desert Spear: Book Review

READ on June 9
I can’t remember in the past year having time to actually sit down and read a book that wasn’t a Dr Seuss, Go Dogs Go, or something of the sort in children’s books. When a book from one of my favorite new writers hit the shelves, I just had to read it. So, about two months after it was released, I finally had it in hand. With only very, very...

Avatar Prequel Novel in the Works

READ, WATCH on February 15
If you’re one of the fans of the Avatar universe (like me) news like this is exciting. Jon Landau, the producer of Avatar, revealed in an interview that James Cameron is planning on writing a prequel book to help answer some of the more nagging plot-holes and questions that, at least some of us, would like to know the answer to.  

New Tetris Playing Machines Coming Your Way

Ok, the Apple Tablet, something that a few of us here at MediaWhore are excited about, will be revealed later this month and according to Wall Street Journal (yes, we read smartypants papers) EA will be right there for the unveiling.  

Summer of the Dead – Resident Evil: Caliban Cove

READ on July 2
I’ve never really been into the novelisations of games or films, normally I’d just assume that they had been written by some cheap hack author and then pumped out for as cheap as possible to make as much money as they can for whatever product they are tied too.  Being a massive Resident Evil fan I decided to throw caution to wind and went... 

Gears of War: Dead Tree Format

PLAY, READ on June 30
I’m guessing that Cliffy B isn’t satisfied with just killing the Locust anymore, he now wants more and more trees to be chainsawed…only difference is that the trees don’t fight back. What the hell am I talking about? Why, the second Gears of War novel that was made available this week of course! Titled Jacinto’s Remnant,...
