That came just a year later in 1991 in the form of 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze.' This turtle-powered action movie didn't fare as well at the box office, but was nonetheless beloved by kids that couldn't get eno

History has always portrayed being geeky as an immense, life-crippling negative experience (at least in high school). However, today, the term "nerd" or "geek" appears to have morphed into a new meaning: one of power, intelligence, and, believe it or not, popularity. With powerhouses such as the Nerdist network, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and pretty much every hipster reading a gra

'The Goonies' was an ensemble movie all the way, and the seven actors who played the ragtag gang of young treasure hunters all delivered memorable performances.

Ok, so , I did NOT, and I repeat did NOT, jump on the "50 Shades of Grey" bandwagon craze ladies and gentleman. Sorry. Sue me. Hate me. Love me. I'll live. I will live because, well, I guess I have had a pretty exciting life, ahem, if you catch my drift. Stopping there. Anyhow, there is a show that is right up my alley and maybe yours coming to the Egg this weekend that is basically a p
