This month we have a couple of new releases from various members of the Backburner crew. Plus, since we’re already visiting Canada (if I’d planned ahead, I would have made sure this went up on July 1, but oh, well), I decided it was a good time to mention some music that’s come Read More

Last week’s list reminded me of some characters that I haven’t written about yet. I decided to get on that this week. It’s no secret that I’m a huge Outlander fan. One of my favorite characters from the book is Lord John Grey. He is an amazing character and fits in well with the Read More

Elijah Wood is one of the few child actors from the ‘90s who’ve gone on to have not only longstanding careers, but lucrative ones. Looking back at my master list, there was no rhyme or reason why he landed on this week. He doesn’t have anything coming out, he’s not turning Read More

Do you like Star Wars? Can you spend hours on end picking apart the minutiae of the movies and discussing them endlessly? Do you know all the trivia? Could you spend twenty minutes talking about one minute of screen time? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then I've Read More
