Books of the Week, One Day Late!
I award you one million and thirty two apologies for bringing Books of the Week to ya’ll one day late, but I assume you all were too busy watching the Super Bowl yesterday, what with Kate Perry doing handstands on lions and all. Anyhoo, without further adieu, here are your books of the week. 1)…
Read MoreMore Short Flicks!
As far as short films go, this next one is pretty great. Intriguing storyline, amazing effects, and decent acting. This is one of those films I’d love to see turned into a full length feature! Also, I started playing this game last night called Brain Wars, and I can already foresee that I’m going to…
Read MoreFantastic Four Trailer!
I’ll be honest, the first couple Fantastic Four movies kind of sucked. That’s not helped by the fact that in the grand pantheon of Marvel Superhero’s the Fantastic Four are kind of lame, but hey, what can I say? I’m a sucker for a superhero movie (yes, I watched Daredevil with Ben Affleck multiple times,…
Read MoreDuck and Cover! It’s Award Season!
Yep, it’s that time of the year again: Award Season. In the months to come, for those paying attention, there will be a truly impressive smattering of Awards swirling about. If you catch a Hugo or Oscar across your dome-piece, don’t act as if you weren’t given fair warning, ‘cause pretty soon it’s gonna be…

Hey guys, just a reminder that it’s not too late to get your copy of Time Heist for FREE! Better hurry though, the deal only lasts one more day!
Read MoreSci-Fi Short Flick
Okay, so the CGI on this one is pretty awesome though the fight scenes, and music, are a bit too The Matrix inspired for me. There is a story buried in there somewhere, but it’s vague, or perhaps subtle would be a nicer way of putting it. Also, this isn’t what I would consider cyberpunk,…
Read MoreE-Book Prices, Getting Less Than What You Paid For
I read a lot (well over 100 books a year), and I don’t have a strong preference for medium one way or the other. If it has an awesome cover, or something I might want to have on my shelf, I’ll buy the paperback. If I just want to read the story then I’ll get…
Read MoreBooks of the Week!
Before we get in up to our elbows worth of books I want to give ya’ll a heads-up that starting tomorrow Time Heist will be FREE on Amazon through the end of the week. So if you’ve been holding off on getting yourself a copy, or you have a frugally inclined friend looking for a new…
Read MoreBlogging Made Simple!
I was having a conversation with my buddy Rupert from http://paranorensics.com/ about getting noticed in that big ol’ blogosphere. It’s tough going, for certain, and I am by no means an expert. But I have had a few mildly successful blogs in the past, and while OneLazyRobot is only two months old it has nearly 700 followers, which…
