Jason actually wanted to see a movie. Normally, I want to go and he doesn’t. So, we don’t. But he wanted to see this one and I was curious and we did. I’m glad we did. There are bloggers and reviews that will point out how controversial, good, had, or honest it is. I’m not Read more

Disclaimer: I haven’t watched Ford V Ferrari or Charlies Angles (2019) at this juncture. However, I’m going to give this analysis thing a stab. Since I really know what’s on the surface, I’ll be able to just sally forth without, hopefully, getting too much off track. Besides, second and third-hand knowledge seems to be perfect Read more

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything about movies and television, so here it goes. The Walking Dead is probably one of my all-time favorite soap-not-soap operas. Since it’s been around for nine seasons, I’m going to avoid the backstory as much as possible. And, yes, I know it came out over a year Read more

I spent an hour and a half of my life watching this because of two reasons: — I thought Brack and Michelle (or is it Michelle and Barack?) Obama would be in it in some way — which they weren’t. Their names weren’t even in the opening credits. It seems the Obamas have branched away Read more

Yes, I did actually see this movie. I was by myself at the local AMC. I caught the 2:30 showing and was in the right seat in the middle. I couldn’t get the awesome middle seats because I got there a little late. The theater was about half full with a couple of fanboys behind Read more

I talked myself out of seeing a movie. I heard that US was a psychological horror flick with tones of anti-socialism and groupthink. It’s a bit bloody, kind of funny, and would take many viewings to catch the entire meaning. I was going to watch it yesterday but sabotaged myself by staying too long at Read more

+++++++ Possibly spoilers. I won’t know until after I write it. ++++++++++ Yesterday, my sister wanted to watch a movie. It was a toss up between “The Spy who Dumped Me” and “Crazy Rich Asians.” Ultimately, she decided on “Crazy Rich.” I was A-OK with that. It got better Tomato reviews that “Spy.” Also, with the gym Read more

I saw Hereditary yesterday. It was a 1:10 showing and about a handful of people where there. One was a child – a girl I think – maybe 13ish. She was sitting behind me and, as far as I know, watched the whole thing. This was my third movie I’ve treated myself to in the Read more

Foxes are generally considered cunning animals. Think of the fox from Zootopia. Somewhere, under all that bravo, he had a good heart, but he usually acted on impulses of greed. Other animals where easy and unwitting prey. I suppose another soft-balled adaptation would be Disney’s Robin Hood. That fox was hunted, cunning, and fairly prideful. Read more

I saw Stephen King’s IT on Friday (the original day) at the 1:20 showing. So what? Why is this remarkable, you ask? I didn’t feel guilty about spending money on myself for a ticket. I didn’t berate myself for sitting 2+ hours without at least standing, fidgeting, or doing something. I broke away from NOA Read more
