I met Mr. Sorbo at Wizard World in Philly in 2012. He’s the real deal. Smart, funny and very approachable. It was a pleasure to meet and talk with him.

Unfortunately, I have plans for today, but I’m going to go see it tomorrow.
It’s been a long time since I’ve treated myself to a movie in a theatre. Usually I just use Redbox.
