They were just two brothers from The Great White North, i.e. Canada, who loved beer, back bacon and doughnuts. They were parodies ofContinue reading “Hey, You Hosers, ‘Strange Brew’ Is A Beauty, Eh?”

Is There A Billy Bob Thornton Curse?
Like most people, I don’t really believe in so called curses or conspiracy theories. Part of the reason is that if you dig a little deeper, you’d find more things that have been abandoned to fit the narrative. I once read about a columnist who said that if a reporter/journalist ever feels to make oneContinue reading “Is There A Billy Bob Thornton Curse?”
Velma Comes Out In ‘Trick Or Treat Scooby-Doo!’
Velma Dinkley was supposed to be the ying to Daphne Blake’s yang. She was the book-smart, more logical one to Daphne’s All-American cheerleader preppy girl archetype. In many ways, people have said the original Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? modeled its characters after the characters from The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. You can see theContinue reading “Velma Comes Out In ‘Trick Or Treat Scooby-Doo!’”
How ‘Thriller’ Set The Standard For Music Videos
Before I begin this, let me do a preface similar to the Thriller video that I’m not a fan of Michael Jackson following the sexual abuse allegations. I also think John Landis should have taken more responsibility for his actions. Vic Morrow and two Vietnamese child actors lost their lives 40 years ago because LandisContinue reading “How ‘Thriller’ Set The Standard For Music Videos”
Herschel Walker: Stepin Fetchit Minstrel Act For GOP
Herschel Walker pulling out a sheriff’s badge at the Georgia Senatorial Debate on Oct. 14. It’s an honorary badge issued from the Johnson County, Ga. Sheriff’s Office.

Walker is not the smartest person inContinue reading “Herschel Walker: Stepin Fetchit Minstrel Act For GOP”
‘She-Hulk’ Smashes Through The MCU
Well, if you were an MCU fan, as well as a Halloween fan, this past week was either a good week or a bad week, depending on your opinions of both the latest Halloween movie and the season finale of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.

‘Halloween Ends’ On A Different Path Than Most Would Suspect
This post may contain spoilers. Halloween Ends has opened this weekend bringing to an end yet another attempt to resurrect the franchise and milk it for a little bit. It’s the 13th movie in the franchise and the 12th to have Michael Myers involved.

‘Where The Crawdads Sing’ A Karaoke Playlist Of Southern Gothic Lore
Where the Crawdads Sing is a popular novel published in 2018. So it was only a matter of time before someone would buy up the rights and get a movie made before it disappears from the New York Times bestseller lists and the drunken wives book club meetings. I’ve not read the book, but afterContinue reading “‘Where The Crawdads Sing’ A Karaoke Playlist Of Southern Gothic Lore”
‘Company Of Wolves’ Spotlights Angela Lansbury’s Versatility
Dame Angela Lansbury was one of those celebrities who just seem excel in whatever role she took. She seem to take each role and make us look beyond the actress. Earlier this week on Oct. 11, she passed away at the age of 96. By the time The Company of the Wolves opened in SeptemberContinue reading “‘Company Of Wolves’ Spotlights Angela Lansbury’s Versatility”
‘Young Frankenstein’ Classic Comedy
Less than 20 years ago, the filmmakers (and using that term lightly) Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg were making movies like Date Movie, Epic Movie and Disaster Movie. There were disgusting and not in the funny way. There’s a difference between a fart joke that is funny and someone just pissing all over the placeContinue reading “‘Young Frankenstein’ Classic Comedy”
