Movie Review: 21 Jump Street

Posted on by Clayton Martin in Featured, Movie Reviews, Movies | 1 Comment

Last week I got to go to a sneak preview showing of 21 Jump Street, which starts playing in theaters this Friday (March 16th). I wouldn’t normally have hardly any expectations going into a movie like this; however, at the time I went to see it, it had managed to pick up 12 positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes giving it a 100% rating. This intrigued me and built a little excitement going into it. 12 reviews probably doesn’t sound like …

Fantasy Survivor Challenge: Week 3

Posted on by The Wise Guise in Featured, Reality Check, Television | Leave a comment

SCOREBOARD: Team Colin: 10 points Team Joseph: 9 points Team Clayton: 8 points Joseph’s Expert Analysis/Venting: I couldn’t believe my eyes as I watched. Having watched every episode of Survivor, I can usually read the editing of the episode to figure out who is going to Tribal Council. Mark  Burnett and Jeff Probst occasionally throw us a curveball, but it’s usually pretty predictable in the first 15 minutes of the episode. So I was genuinely shocked when the guys’ tribe …

Tuesday’s With Tony: Stairway To Heaven

Posted on by Colin Stovall in Basketball, Featured, Sports, Tuesday's With Tony, Weekly Posts | 1 Comment

I’m not the only one who sees the value of Tony Allen. My dear friend Bill Simmons, whom I’ve shared many a podcast with, recently wrote his annual trade deadline top 50 most valuable players article. Well guess who’s contract was deemed most desirable for teams to acquire. Tick tick tick. What is Tony Allen for $300? You would be correct! So if Bill Simmons believes in Tony Allen, why don’t you? I’m not trying to twist your arm to …

Upcoming Films of 2012

Posted on by Clayton Martin in Featured, Movie Previews, Movies | 2 Comments

Well reader of this, you’re welcome. I’ve done all the work for you. Compiled here is everything you need to know and look forward to related to movies in 2012. This isn’t every movie that’s coming out, just the ones that I feel are most noteworthy. About half of them are linked with trailers if you click the names and the others are linked to the IMDb page because the trailers haven’t been released. I have probably spent more time …

Movie Review: Undefeated

Posted on by Clayton Martin in Featured, Movie Reviews, Movies | 4 Comments

What a perfect film to be the inaugural Wise Guise movie review! I saw this film last Friday night on opening night in Memphis and couldn’t be more excited to share my thoughts with you all. Let me start off by saying that had this film come out in Memphis prior to my 2011 rankings post it probably would have actually gotten the top spot. Boom. Wildcard allocated. Most of you don’t know me so you don’t know how seriously …

Fantasy Survivor Challenge: Week 2

Posted on by The Wise Guise in Featured, Reality Check, Television | 7 Comments

Since we’re not yet to the merge, the scoring each week is quite simple right now.  After the female tribe stopped the male tribe’s dominant momentum, the alpha male alliance fractured quickly once it was shown Colton’s clever and not-so-clever band of misfits had the numbers, and Matthew was sent packing. Team Joseph: 5 points Team Colin: 5 points Team Clayton: 4 points

Tuesdays With Tony: The Numbers

Posted on by The Wise Guise in Basketball, Featured, Sports, Tuesday's With Tony, Weekly Posts | Leave a comment

Top of the morning to you all, I’m on my MTV jams flow. Tony’s vernacular is surreptitiously becoming intertwined into my daily conversations and I love it. People just look at me funny. Apparently verbalizing tweets doesn’t result in instant popularity. Oh well, it was worth a shot. But enough about me, this is Tony’s time. 251.

He Said, She Said will be a weekly post brought to you by Joseph Williams and his lovely wife, Palmer.
