In The News: You Could Do Better Edition
‘Kick-Ass’ star, 19, engaged to 43-year-old was the headline. Now I\’m not one to look down my nose at older women scooping up younger men. The double standard of older men and young women has been in place far too long. But dude… you really could do better. It\’s one thing for a young guy…

Caroling
I\’m clearly a little off my game. A famous Hollywood icon[1. Look, just repeat after me: Nobody puts Baby in a corner. Now try to tell me he\’s not an icon.] passes, and it takes me a full nine days to realize that it\’s a chance to run one of my favorite skits. Ah well,…

Inception
Those of you who know me, know that I\’m a big fan of movie director Christopher Nolan. The Prestige is one of the first two or three movies that come to mind when people ask me What\’s your favorite movie?, and both Memento and even The Dark Knight would come close to placing Top 10.…

A third-party candidate we can all get behind…
Vote for Zod. And then kneel before him. I\’ve been waiting for his comeback ever since he got forced out of the Imperial Senate a long time ago (and in a galaxy far, far away). Hey, it was either that link or the one from the monkey researcher about how he knows McCain is afraid…

Movie Review: Lots and Lots of Movies
Why hello there! It\’s been awhile. Well, I\’ve been busy, you know how it is. Work is a bear! Some good news though is I got promoted. Yeah… thanks! No, no change to the work I\’m doing, but that just shows you I was doing senior level work without the title. But what have I…

Movie Review: First of many
I recently entered the new millenium by joining Blockbuster Online and getting movies delivered straight to my home (what a coun-try! </Yakov Smirnoff>). I love movies, but my spouse doesn\’t. So for that past several years my movie consumption has taken a nosedive, but on top of that there are plenty of movies prior to…

Deja Vu
Funny how some things jump out at you. I wasn\’t even really looking at the TV this morning, but this movie trailer caught my eye, and about ten seconds into it, and with nothing to base it on except what I\’d seen that far in the trailer, I thought: Sweet, a Tony Scott film. Sure…

Mark Cuban is a moron
Mark Cuban has been quoted saying that anyone who buys YouTube is a \”moron\”. He does have a good point in that most of the content found on the site is copyrighted. But Cuban is far from unbiased on this topic. He is the co-founder of HDNet, and he went out of his way to…

Movie Review – FF:AC
I gotta tell y\’all: My Netflix queue is a mess. I have no idea what\’s gonna show up when I return something. I haven\’t even looked to see what\’s in there in a while. This isn\’t an excuse for the movie I\’m about to review, just a partly-related complaint about how my life is too…
