Generation X provided us with nothing if not a rich variety of entertainment options with limited technology and a limited budget, and few films that have achieved cult status amongst those who grew up in the 1980s exemplify that fact as thoroughly as The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. Those of you [...]

You know, they say everyone has their twin, someone who looks enough like them to be a brother or sister.  In the case of famous comic actress Carol Burnett, for instance, that person was Vicki Lawrence.  And while these look-alikes may be rare, I believe I’ve found one.  You see, I’ve got this friend, Charlie, [...]

To someone on the outside, I must look more than a little strange.  The site, the whole look at feel of it, is designed to convey a message – that I’m a bit of a geek.  Or maybe more than a bit of a geek, absolutely a geek.  And it’s true, too; it’s been true [...]

According to a recent article in The Sun, actor Samuel L. Jackson is tired of these mother-bleepin‘ bloggers on this mother-bleepin‘ internet.  You see, it seems Mr. Jackson has gotten the short shrift from those in the world of weblogs, and is frankly quite tired of their ability to critique him from behind a mask [...]

On the off-chance you haven’t seen this yet…

For those who don’t know, this is the big-screen, live-action adaptation of a rather popular cartoon series from Nickelodeon, Avatar: The Last Airbender. Excellent show, and it looks like Shyamalan might actually be making up for The Happening with this one.

It’s Tuesday.  I don’t think anybody really thinks much about Tuesdays (except maybe people who celebrate Mardi Gras, which literally means “Fat Tuesday”), but I do.  Tuesdays are the kind of days where you’re just finishing up all our early in the week stuff, but you’re not quite at the late in the week stuff [...]

I remember the intro to the 70s Old West meets martial arts television series, Kung Fu.  The old, venerable master, sitting cross-legged, a hand outstretched toward his student.  The student, a boy no more than thirteen, strikes quickly, trying to grab something, a small, black stone, from the hand of his teacher.  He isn’t quick [...]

Okay… so I’ve been itching to try this, and tonight I finally took the time and did. Putting together some scenes from Superman Returns and the music from Toby Mac’s “Extreme Days”, I’ve posted my first fan-made music video on YouTube.
Now… it’s fairly amateurish, I know. Some of the transitions aren’t that great, and the fades are [...]

Like I promised, a couple days later – or three days, which, as we all know, is one more than a couple – here is “Livin’ La Vita Joka’” Carnival!  My original post…
A panda walks into a Harold’s Bistro, is seated, and enjoys a fine meal consisting mostly of salad.  After a relaxing evening of [...]

Do you ever start writing something, only to discover you’ve said far too much, and it would just be better if you deleted, because really, there’s no way to pare it down and have it still make sense?  Yeah.  I just did that.  No drama.  None.  Not today.  I don’t want to deal with it, [...]
