There’s a few things that are certain. When Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) says that he’s not stepping down as he’s froze up twice in the last few months, believe him. He’s not leaving the Senate unless it’s feet first. When Sir Michael Caine says he’s thinking of finally retiring, don’t believe him. Caine has beenContinue reading “Rupert Murdoch Isn’t Going Anywhere”

‘Ghost Ship’ Gets Lost In Sea Of Cliches
Ghost Ship is one of those movies you’d find yourself staying up late to watch in the early 2000s because you had some bad indigestion from supper or you slept too late on a weekend morning and worried about the week ahead at work. It’s starts off wonderful with a B-movie horror style and thenContinue reading “‘Ghost Ship’ Gets Lost In Sea Of Cliches”
‘Winning Time’ Gets A Sudden Death Elimination As Lakers Series Canceled
Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers was a difficult series that could never really find its footing. News of its cancelation this week probably comes as no surprise for some and a shock for others. The series created by Max Borenstein and Jim Hicht and spear-headed by Adam McKay could’ve been a wonderful lookContinue reading “‘Winning Time’ Gets A Sudden Death Elimination As Lakers Series Canceled”
‘Little Mermaid’ Too Long And Lacks The Magic Of Animated Original
By the time The Little Mermaid hit theaters in 1989, Disney was so desperately in need of a hit animation movie. Oliver & Company the year before had made some money but the reviews were mixed. The bigger hit had been Who Framed Roger Rabbit. But the House of Mouse was still struggling following theContinue reading “‘Little Mermaid’ Too Long And Lacks The Magic Of Animated Original”
Hypocrisy Is Becoming America’s New Pasttime
Ok, show of hands – who hasn’t watched the news the last few weeks with a certain malaise that you kinda expected all this. Jimmy Fallon, who spent years, making us believe he was a squeaky-clean cornfed white-boy comic may be a drunk who spent the last nine years making The Tonight Show a toxicContinue reading “Hypocrisy Is Becoming America’s New Pasttime”
‘American Dream’ A Nightmare Of Corporate Greed, Labor Union Mistakes
The tagline on one of the movie posters of American Dream is “The film that corporate America doesn’t want you to see.” I think that’s comical. Because after sitting through the roughly 100 minutes of this documentary, you will probably also conclude that labor unions don’t want you to see it either. That might explainContinue reading “‘American Dream’ A Nightmare Of Corporate Greed, Labor Union Mistakes”
Leave Drew Alone!
I’ve never really been a big fan of Drew Barrymore, but I’ve always felt she got a raw deal from the Court of Public Opinion. As part of the Barrymore acting family, she was a “Nepo Baby” before that phrase was even thought of. She had a roller-coaster childhood that made Lindsay Lohan’s look likeContinue reading “Leave Drew Alone!”
Be Careful What Sides You Take
Four years ago this week, a person I was in Cub Scouts with and sat next to in many classes and even attended a sleepover for a birthday was covicted of a double murder of two women. He is serving a life sentence without parole in a Georgia prison. At the same time, a personContinue reading “Be Careful What Sides You Take”
‘Fire In The Sky’ Fizzles Out Long Before Frightening Finale
With news this week that NASA officials believe that UFO sightings aren’t credible but they do entertain the possibility of extraterrestrial life, it is no better time to review the 1993 sci-fi/horror/mystery Fire in the Sky. It’s a muddled movie that seems like a glorified TV movie that never does really achieve what it should’ve.Continue reading “‘Fire In The Sky’ Fizzles Out Long Before Frightening Finale”
