Tyler Trax: Great up to date tech information. Good enough that it was just bought by AOL for an absurd amount of money!

Looking for a way to stay up to date on tech news, TechCrunch is the way to go!

Google Chrome (Web Browser) photo
Tyler Trax: Completely underrated as a browser. Fast, fast, fast. Lots of add-ons/extensions.

It might not be your everyday browser, but definitely worth a change of pace every now and then.

Tyler Trax: If you enjoy ridiculously stupid movies and were born in the 70's/80's, this is for you!

There are times when it looks like they put these four guys together and just said "go for it" without a script. With that being said, I still thought it was hysterical.

By far, the best part of the movie was the ending credits of "Home Sweet Home" performed by Rob Corddry. Definitely worth checking out on YouTube even if you don't see the movie.

Easy A photo
Tyler Trax: My girlfriend chose this one, and in an attempt to make my lady happy, I went with the flow.

The theater was filled with high school kids, which made my hesitation even stronger, BUT I was more than pleasantly surprised.

It was a clever, witty comedy that both teenagers and adults will enjoy, especially if you grew up in the 80's.

Highly recommended!

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid photo
Tyler Trax: I don't know what it was about this movie, but I really liked it. Maybe because it hit on some core issues that I dealt with growing up, maybe not?

I'm not sure, and have yet been able to explain my reasoning to my girlfriend, who I'm still trying to convince to watch it, but rest assured, I will be watching it again!

The Karate Kid (2010) photo
Tyler Trax: I saw the original Karate Kid when I was a kid, yes, I'm showing my age!

Of course the hesitation was there, but I didn't think that Will Smith would let his son be involved in a poor attempt to remake a 1980's "kind of classic."

Jaden Smith was great. Entertaining couple of hours.

Tyler Trax: Despite my original inclination to pass on this movie, as I'm normally not into these types of films, I saw it and was in awe of the special effects, along with a powerful love story to boot!

I heard they're releasing some kind of sequel!

The Hangover photo
Tyler Trax: Galifianakis and Bradley Cooper were excellent! Add in a cameo from Iron Mike Tyson, and you got yourself a winner!

Very, very funny. Actually watched it twice....

The Blind Side photo
Tyler Trax: True stories always hit home, and this one is no exception. I couldn't help pick up my iPhone during the movie to check and see if this one was going to end in tears. I won't ruin the ending, but definitely worth seeing.

Sandra Bullock, who I was a little skeptical of at first, was superb!

Inception photo
Tyler Trax: The concept had me more drawn than anything else. The ability to access our sub-conscious is something that seems way too close to reality. If someone isn't doing this already, I can't imagine that it's going to be a long time before some else does.

DiCaprio is always great, as was Ellen Page, along with a great performance from Rock N' Rolla cast member, Tom Hardy.

Curb Your Enthusiasm photo
Tyler Trax: Larry David, need I saw more? His sense of humor is one of a kind, and makes me cringe almost every time I watch. It's like the accident on the side of the highway, you don't want to look, but you just can't help yourself!

How To Make It In America photo
Tyler Trax: I don't know if this show is going to be picked up again, but it was definitely another one of my HBO favorites. Being in my 30's and from NY helped me relate to the show, as it was typical of the lives of many people I knew.

Putting all of that aside, it still gets two thumbs up in my book!

Entourage photo
Tyler Trax: Vince and the crew always start off a little slow, but always end off strong, or at least he tried to be when he crashed the Eminem party in the last episode. Johnny Drama, Turtle and E, despite his love for the Islanders, and let's not forget Ari Gold, make this show a must watch in my book.

Eastbound & Down photo
Tyler Trax: My girlfriend says that Kenny Powers is "special" and not in a loving way. That's exactly what I love about him! After I caught some footage of some of the original season, I was seriously disappointed that the show had been taken off the air.

Fortunately, Kenny Powers is still alive in Mexico, and has decided to make a comeback!

To top it off, the iPhone app looks like an original Nintendo game and might be one the best apps out there.

Bored To Death photo
Tyler Trax: I've had my ups and downs with Bored To Death, but it's been enough to keep me watching every week, even if it is via DVR. Jason Schwartzman is good, as is Ted Danson, but Zach Galifiainakis is the man!
