Wow!  I wasn’t expecting to be psychologically assaulted when I went to see this movie, but after about the seventh or eighth uncomfortably long close-up of Casey Affleck’s face, I began to identify with him.  Westerns have always had a way of questioning morality, by giving the hero flaws and the villains charm, but this […]

This droid always made me laugh.

A village in Serbia has erected a giant replica of the statue seen in the Rocky movies!   Hell yeah!  Who’s to say art is only for depicting real-life stuff?  The people in this town have suffered a lot.  Fictional or not, the sources from which we draw inspiration to keep on living are worth honoring.

Parking spaces in Manhattan are being sold for over $200,000. This is unbelievable. According to the article, this is by no means unusual for a city the size of New York. I often wonder about people, and stuff like this makes me wonder even more. I mean, what the hell!?! How rich do you have […]

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?

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 […]

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better…

Let’s just hope Stop or My Mom Will Shoot 2 isn’t on the agenda.

As good as Sean Bean can be at playing a villian, I don’t know if he could possibly top old Rutger in the role of John Ryder. Still, I’m glad someone appreciated this movie enough to redo it.

If anyone is looking for a good book to read, I’m just finishing up a book called Lamb, The Gospel According to Biff Christ’s Childhood Pal by Chistopher Moore. It’s about Jesus’s formative years (or Joshua as he’s called in the book), as told by Biff. Joshua and Biff become friends as children and then […]
