HST Winter: Great Songs For The Holidays
When I was younger, my family and I would sit around our Christmas tree, open up presents, and listen to some of the most classic Christmas songs of yesteryear. Some Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Brenda Lee, and a little bit of Nat "King" Cole made my Christmas mornings incredibly memorable. However, as I grow older and my musical →

This week's Suggestion Box is short and sweet with only two trailers. With that said they are for two films that I am really looking forward to: 127 Hours and The Tempest. Movies: 127 Hours Full Length Trailer - Maybe there is a draft in my kitchen or it was the use of one of my favorite songs, but this trailer just →
Gaming Review – Halo: Reach
The scene opens on a shot with part of the void of space being filled by a planet. The composition of the frame brings a flash of a memory to mind, but joy quickly dissipates at the realization that the Battlestar Galactica and the ships it has kept safe is not coming in from the right of the screen. That →

Suggestion Box (Aug. 9 – 15)
Hey guys, so I thought you would probably appreciate me being less lazy by posting the actual videos here through a strenuous copy/paste process (sarcasm applied) instead of just posting links to those sites. Hope this works better for you. Movies: How Do You Know Trailer – A love triangle between Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson. Decisions, decisions… Love and →
Suggestion Box (July 19 – Aug. 8)
With Comic-Con and a brief excursion to my old college town I have been taking my good ol’ time collecting stuff to pass on from the past few weeks. With that said the list isn’t actually too intense, so have no fear and get right to it! Movies: It’s Kind of a Funny Story Trailer – A comedy putting Zach Galifianakis →
Suggestion Box (July 12 – 18)
Movies: Centurion Trailer – A film that reminds me of the last King Arthur film with the look of the opening battle in Gladiator, and a story that is probably not really like either. But ooo, Roman soldiers. Check it out here. Devil Trailer – Even after the butchering of The Last Airbender I still have some faith in the fact that →
Suggestion Box (July 5 – 11)
Movies: The Loved Ones – As the school year comes to an end something at the top of most girls’ lists is a date to the prom. Apparently some girls are willing to go much further than others to get what they want. Disturbingly far… Check it out here. Resident Evil: Afterlife Trailer #2 – There are so many things working against →
Suggestion Box (June 28 – July 4)
Movies: Let Me In International Trailer - Many of you might remember that a couple years ago a Swedish film titled Let the Right One In was released, based on the vampire novel of the same name. Well, it didn't take long for the English version to get made with Chloe Moretz as the young vampire (you might remember her as →
Suggestion Box (June 21 – 27)
Clothing: I know fashion isn’t a usual topic for us, but I am a huge fan of the t-shirts they sell at threadless.com, and one of the recent additions was inspired by the oil spill in the gulf. They are only ten dollars and all proceeds are donated to the Gulf Restoration Network. Check out the design here. Movies: A Film Unfinished →
Suggestion Box (June 14 – 20)
Last week there wasn't really anything to report movie trailer wise, so I decided to skip the suggestion box all together and just go with a special E3 Edition. But this week the usual is back. YAY! Movies: Conviction Trailer – A true story about a woman who becomes I lawyer after her brother is wrongly (?) accused of murder. Check →
Suggestion Box – Special E3 Edition
If you aren’t a nerd then you probably had no idea that a major gaming and electronic convention was going on during the beginning of this week. Then again, you probably aren’t reading this post either because of that same reason… Hm… Well then, since no introductions are in order, let me just dive right in. This year’s main events at →
Suggestion Box (May 31 – June 6)
Movies: Gulliver’s Travels Trailer – Honestly I wasn’t quite sure about this trailer. I actually enjoy a lot of what Jack Black does, but I still wasn’t so sure since I have already recently seen a movie with a giant guy surrounded by tinier people (that would be Night at the Museum. Or that childhood movie with the little cabinet thing →
Suggestion Box (May 24 – 30)
Movies: Going the Distance Trailer – A romantic comedy about a couple (Drew Barrymore and Justin Long) who fall hard for each other even though she will be leaving in 6 weeks. That ho. Which brings on the long distance relationship. So basically it is Dear John – Nicholas Sparks – the war + more comedy. Okay, so it’s probably nothing →
Suggestion Box (May 17 – 23)
Movies: Megamind Trailer – An animated film in which Will Ferrell plays a super villain with Brad Pitt as is nemesis? Yes. Now throw Tina Fey in there and you really have something special. Check it out here. Rio Trailer – Looks like it’s a week for animated films; but this time, we’ve got birds. Or more specifically, a bird who is →
Suggestion Box (May 10 – 16)
Movies: Adjustment Bureau Trailer – Matt Damon and Emily Blunt try to outrun their fate and the men who are responsible for making sure they don’t succeed at doing so. Should be interesting. Check it out here. Charlie St. Cloud Trailer – A film that tugs at my girlie heartstrings involving Zac Efron as a boy who is afraid of forgetting the →
Suggestion Box (April 26 – May 2)
Sorry for the late posting (cuz I know all of you have been like: “What the heck Lauren! It’s long past the 2nd. Where my recommendations be at fool?” That’s right, that’s how people talk in my mind), but the end of a period in one’s life can get a little time consuming. So I am a little backlogged, but →
