Walkey Talk: Remembering the Glory Daze

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  January 17, 2011 @ 2:14am

Glory days. The best years of your lives. Yeah, they usually are a daze.

When I was a kid, I thought high school was going to be like Grease, and college would be like Animal House. Boy was I wrong! With all due respect, I'm sure many people had some raunchy memories of their University days.

Walkey Talk: New Year's Resolutions

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  January 7, 2011 @ 9:15pm

PERFECTION

It's the beginning of a new year and a fresh start for everyone. Time to be perfect.

I'm a perfectionist. I hate making mistakes. When I was young I somehow got it into my head that the best way to not make a mistake is to not even try. I've missed out on a lot of opportunities because of that mindset.

Walkey Talk: Portman Comes of Age... Sort of.

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  December 28, 2010 @ 6:06pm

The child actor is a pretty sweet gig, let's face it. You get paid lots of money to play make believe. It certainly beats flipping burgers. But making the transition from young adolescent to adult is where the real challenge lies. It's difficult for young actors to be taken seriously in mature roles when the public is used to seeing them in children's fluff.

Walkey Talk: Holiday Edition

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  December 18, 2010 @ 3:43pm

MAN CHRISTMAS *

It's that time of year that all men love: aimlessly wandering around a parking lot looking for a space, standing in line for hours between an old lady and a screaming baby, being ripped off by a jewellery salesperson... and this usually all occurs on December 23!

Yes the holiday season is in full swing.

It was announced this week that James Franco and Anne Hathaway will be co-hosting the 83rd Academy Awards this year on February 27th, 2011.

Walkey Talk: The American Dream?

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  October 18, 2010 @ 2:30pm

It's a docu–drama about computer programming. It's a morality play, a coming of age story, and a courtroom drama. All of which plays out like a suspenseful psychological thriller.

Is it the best movie of the year? Could be. But it is definitely the most important movie of the year.

Why? Because it is us. It is now.

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  August 27, 2010 @ 8:23pm

Summertime is traditionally not the greatest time of year for television. Every once in a while a surprise summer sensation sneaks under the radar and completely enthralls the public (Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Survivor).

Walkey Talk: This Kid's Personal Karate Journey

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  July 5, 2010 @ 7:07pm

The big screen releases of The A Team and The Karate Kid has everyone all giddy for 1980s nostalgia. Critics always get upset over studios' unapologetic insistence of remaking classic films, and with good reason. Nothing screams cash grab more than a remake. Aside from dating myself, remaking the 1984 film The Karate Kid has other personal effects on me.

Walkey Talk: A Personal Journey Through Pop Culture

Posted by: Mike Walkey  •  July 4, 2010 @ 2:44pm

The world of entertainment can be a crazy and complicated affair. Topic after topic, discussion after discussion. With so much information out there these days, how do you know who to trust? Who's got the inside track? Whose opinion is the right one? That is where I come into play.
