RE-VERSE: GAME OF THRONES

Image
IN TWEET: A RE-VERSE IS A REVIEW WRITTEN IN VERSE. FOR THE FIRST OUTING OF THIS NEW RONTHINK FEATURE, WE CHOSE “GAME OF THRONES” FROM HBO. Sometimes when you want to write a negative review, turning it into a poem can make the bitter pill go down a little easier. I know many of my fellow geeks love the HBO series GAME OF THRONES . Alas, I’m not one of them. GAME OF THRONES has everything I dislike in one hugely overblown snoozer of a package: dragons, dirty looking characters wearing pelts, storylines that are deliberately confusing for no valid reason, a deep well of smug self-importance, ugly people having kinky sex, fantasy novel roots , excessive violence and Peter Dinklage . So, without further pontification, here is the inaugural RONTHINK RE-VERSE! GAME OF THRONES A DARK SONNET OF RHYMING COUPLETS Tonight White Walkers march once more. Hark! Here comes that crashing bore! As GIRLS lays waste to comedy This is death by fantasy. The cast be large, the critics mused. ...

OPINION: THE YAHOO! BITCH GLITCH

IN TWEET: YAHOO! DEFINITELY NEEDS PRESS…JUST NOT THE KIND OF PRESS CEO MARISSA MAYER HAS BEEN GENERATING OF LATE. Meet Marissa Mayer , a cautionary tale in the making. Don’t let the warm smile and sparkling eyes fool you. She’s what happens when an apple falls far from the Google tree, rolls down a storm drain and settles under that withering Yahoo! bush. You know, the one clinging to life in the sunlight deprived corner of the internet garden. It’s been almost two weeks since  Silicon Valley flipped out over a leaked memo from Yahoo! HR big wig Jackie Reses . Buried deep in a shit pile of sunshine and roses was the lead. In short, scrubbed of the HR warm and fuzzy, if you currently work for Yahoo! from a remote location, one of the following will be changing in June: your location or your employer. Cue lead balloon. To be fair, it doesn’t take much to raise hackles in the ol’ SV but this particular story took on a life of it’s own and went global . Of course, Reses was merel...

REVIEW: THE BRIDGE [FX]

Image
IN TWEET: AN INTRIGUING PREMISE AND MEXICAN ACTOR DEMIÁN BICHIR ARE STAND-OUTS IN THE “THE BRIDGE,” AN UNEVEN BUT PROMISING NEW ORIGINAL FROM FX. In the opening moments of THE BRIDGE , a new crime drama that debuted last week on FX, a serial killer disrupts electronic surveillance on the Bridge of the Americas long enough to leave a chilling calling card: the lifeless body of a woman placed directly on the border line between the United States and Mexico. When authorities from both countries show up to investigate, El Paso police detective Sonya Cross ( Diane Kruger ) immediately stakes her claim because the victim, a judge, is from the U.S. Her Mexican counterpart, Det. Marco Ruiz ( Demián Bichir ), has no desire to add another crime to an already full plate back in Juárez and happily lets Cross take the reins. Things get ugly and more complicated when Cross and her colleagues make a shocking discovery while attempting to move the body: there are actually two victims. The killer...
