Years ago, I got into an argument with some people over the fact that American Sniper sidestepped all the crazy stuff Chris Kyle had said. The man had said that he was hired to shoot at looters following the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. He said that he had killed two people inContinue reading “The Laws Apply To Everyone, Especially Military Vets (Even If They Don’t Think So)”

CNN Knew It Was A Snake
There’s a saying that you never serve a drunk an alcoholic drink. CNN didn’t just serve a drunk an alcoholic drink, they tipped Trump up and had him do a keg stand. They funnelled some hard core stuff down his throat. They knew exactly what they were doing. Bringing in 3.1 million viewers (probably aContinue reading “CNN Knew It Was A Snake”
‘Temple Of Doom’ Takes Indiana Jones Down Into The Depths Of True Horror
The Indiana Jones franchise can best be described as a casserole of genres all thrown together. They’re all set decades in the past making them period pieces with mixes of historical drama. They include action-adventure with elements of comedy thrown in sprinkled with some romance. And there are hints of the supernatural, fantasy and horror.Continue reading “‘Temple Of Doom’ Takes Indiana Jones Down Into The Depths Of True Horror”
‘Dragged Across Concrete’ Is MAGA Porn
Before I begin this post, let me preface I like movies and stories where the main characters aren’t the most likable. But there has to be some dimension to characters. And while people might draw comparisons to Dirty Harry and To Live and Die in L.A., Dragged Across Concrete isn’t in the same league. IContinue reading “‘Dragged Across Concrete’ Is MAGA Porn”
‘Twilight’ Dims Too Dull Too Soon
When you think of Twilight, you think of vampires and werewolves and an young woman torn between the two. Well, that might be the same premise of the 1998 neo-noir thriller from a certain point of view. Yet, a movie like this shouldn’t have be as disappointing as it is with the overabundance of talentContinue reading “‘Twilight’ Dims Too Dull Too Soon”
‘Above Suspicion’ Never Rises Above Average Poverty Porn Exploitations

It’s Time For The Republican Party To $h!t Or Get Off The Pot
I forgot where I read it but I was reading something Hunter S. Thompson wrote in the 1990s where he said the reason Jimmy Carter was elected President was that the Republican Party chose to sit out the election. Thompson was on to something when President Gerald Ford was up against Ronald Reagan in theContinue reading “It’s Time For The Republican Party To $h!t Or Get Off The Pot”
Why Corporate America Should Be (And Quite Possibly Is) Scared Of WGA Strike
The Writers Guild of America has been on strike for about 10 days now. It’s the first time in almost 16 years. For many of them, they are fighting for better residuals of the shows on the streaming services they write for. Sadly, some haven’t even got much for their efforts. If someone gets aContinue reading “Why Corporate America Should Be (And Quite Possibly Is) Scared Of WGA Strike”
And The Band Played On…
In the last 10 days, the biggest gap between the realty most of us live in and the fantasy world others are privileged was shown in a long time. On Saturday, April 29, the White House’s Correspondent’s Dinner was held. Nicknamed the “Nerd Prom,” it’s often a chance for the President, Vice-President, politicians, elected officials,Continue reading “And The Band Played On…”
Jabba The Hutt Is A Perfect Representation Of The Seven Deadly Sins
Jabba the Hutt made his first official appearance in a Star Wars movie in the 1983 movie Return of the Jedi, even though he had been spoken about in A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. So, when he finally showed up in Jedi, his appearance was very earned by the foretelling. A giantContinue reading “Jabba The Hutt Is A Perfect Representation Of The Seven Deadly Sins”
