Who needs a Hero?

So here we go again, I tried something like this on for a month or two about 5 or 6 years ago and failed miserably but for some odd reason I feel like this time it will work a lot better… yet to be seen. So what is Media Hero? Well, for the last 27 years, I have been the go to guy with my family and friends for just about anything media related. “Hey Justin, fix my VCR”, “Hey Justin, what’s the difference between Blu-Ray and DVD”, Hey Justin…. Wanna make a slide show for my wedding/anniversary/bar mitzvah ?” I know media. I know entertainment. And I know people will enjoy hearing me talk about it.

Cocky? Maybe alittle bit, but when has anyone know me to be overly shy or lack confidence?

I am what I am. I can’t help that since I can remember I have had a fascination with the movies or with music. I am going to take up my little corner of the internet and talk about things that I like, dislike, find funny or maybe even alittle offensive. Everything on this blog will evolve around media and entertainment. Whether its reviews of movies or TV show I watch, concert reviews, or even the infamous viral video on youtube… I will hopefully have a lot to say. IF you disagree with my opinions, reviews whatever… GOOD. Let’s argue, I mean speak diplomatically about it and see where it goes.

So…. Who Am I?

20-something that enjoys watching, analyzing, critiquing, making, writing, and producing movies or short films. Whether it’s a quick 2 hour edit for a church video or a full blown production that the closest I get to the action is standing behind a caution tape line (CSI shoot in Vegas last October), I enjoy getting my hands dirty with an HD Camera and alittle Final Cut Pro. I am alittle obsessed with Dexter, Breaking Bad, and I am currently trying to find another show to get to involved in while I wait for those two to show back up with new seasons. I also watch a handful of other shows religiously so they will show up here as well.

Musically speaking, my tastes are about as wide open as any one person can really be. I am a fan of all music, and I mean all music…Zac Brown Band, Bob Schneider, Eminem, Pearl Jam, and on and on… Yeah that’s just my cleaning playlist. So in all honesty there is no telling what may show up here when it comes to music. I can promise one thing, a concert review very soon, with pictures, of Bob Schneider Live from House of Blues Dallas.

The ‘silver screen’ is a whole different beast for me. I will give just about anything a shot… even Ghost of Girlfriend Past. Yeah that sucked something awful! There are very few movies that I pretty much have zero interest in seeing. One of those would be Avatar. I can already see the negative comments rolling in. It’s a big issue with some of my friends, I just don’t want to sit through it. Even on Blu-Ray. I will tackle that monster of a blog post some other time. Don’t ask me what my favorite movie is or I will list 15. I just can’t narrow it down to one.

So there you go, a little sneak peek at what is to come here with the Media Hero.

So in closing I ask only one thing of you one

In the words of Enrique Ilglesias…. Let me be your hero.
