This is an incredible piece of Hollywood lore. It is so great that it's hard to believe.  I've been meaning to post about this but kept forgetting it, but I was reminded about it last night when I was watching Aeon Flux and heard it again!
Here is the story, read it and enjoy.  Make sure you […]

Rocky VI is good. I saw it today, and I left feeling that old triumphant “I just saw a Rocky Movie” feeling. I want to go to Philly and hang out with Rocky, now. Is it bad to intentionally ignore the fact that someone is a fictional character?

Let it be noted that he was in both Amistad and Gladiator.

I’m Reading Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons right now. I’m only about 80 pages in and it’s already better than The DaVinci Code in my opinion. Anyone else read this? Is it just me, or does it seem to share almost all of The DaVinci Code’s major elements? Its almost like he attempted to improve […]

Got bored and started reading this at work today (actually just couldn't focus).  It's a good book - good insight into bushido and Japanese culture as it was back then.
