Ron’s Gone Wrong starts out with a lot of promise. Imagine a future world where all children had their own B-bots, these little egg-shaped robots with a built in algorithm that could know everything about us just by one simple touch. Their design according to designer Marc Weidell is to help people make friends. OfContinue reading “‘Ron’s Gone Wrong’ Is Cute And Charming But Gets Bogged Down In Anti-Technology Theme”

‘Cobra Kai’ Still Kicks, But…
The fourth season of Cobra Kai dropped on New Year’s Eve on Netflix. The season was far better than the third season (which dropped on New Year Day 2021), which seemed a continuation of season two. But the series is starting to show its cracks. Ralph Macchio, who plays one of the lead protagonists, DanielContinue reading “‘Cobra Kai’ Still Kicks, But…”
Jan. 6, 2021: A Day That Will Live In Infamy
Benjamin Franklin was once asked, ” What do we have a republic or a monarchy?” He replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.” A year ago today, millions if not billions all over the world watched as people stormed the U.S. Capitol Building in an attempt to stop the tabulations of the ballots forContinue reading “Jan. 6, 2021: A Day That Will Live In Infamy”
‘Finch’ Explores The Emotions Of Artificial Intelligence
Leave it to Tom Hanks to turn a post-apocalyptic dystopia movie where the Earth (or America) is a barren wasteland into a cutesy movie about an aging man, a dog and his android. It’s actually a philosophical movie on the idea that artificial intelligence can express emotions (such as love, joy and amusement) if exposedContinue reading “‘Finch’ Explores The Emotions Of Artificial Intelligence”
No New Insights From ‘The Eyes Of Tammy Faye’
More than likely, Jessica Chastain will get an Oscar nomination for her role as the late Tammy Faye Messner (formerly Tammy Faye Bakker). She’s got a Golden Globe nomination and several other wins and nominations in other contests. Her role as the disgraced wife guilty by association to Jim Bakker, a convict and charlatan, isContinue reading “No New Insights From ‘The Eyes Of Tammy Faye’”
If #OKBoomer Was A Movie, It’d Be ‘Don’t Look Up’
Adam McKay started his film career as a director making that Anchorman movie. I couldn’t finish it. I think I sat through Stepbrothers once. Maybe twice. I liked The Other Guys. But there’s only so many movies starring Will Ferrell that you can make before people start just associating you with Ferrell. Eventually you haveContinue reading “If #OKBoomer Was A Movie, It’d Be ‘Don’t Look Up’”
‘The Guilty’ Spotlights Jake Gyllenhaal’s Talents
I’m sure Taylor Swift and her fans don’t like Jake Gyllenhaal. There was a joke on Family Guy comparing him to Jared Leto and how he probably a dick in real life. As the son of director Stephen Gyllenhaal, he’s entered into his fourth decade of appearing in movies, starting with a role as BillyContinue reading “‘The Guilty’ Spotlights Jake Gyllenhaal’s Talents”
Thank You For Being A Friend
About eight years ago on this date, Jan. 1, my ex was in the hospital following the second of five spinal fusions she’d have over a period from November 2012 to January 2015. I woke up in the Saint Francis Hospital in Tulsa after spending New Year’s Eve 2013. My immediate supervisor at the WagonerContinue reading “Thank You For Being A Friend”

Boba Fett Gets His Own Show
What is the appeal of Boba Fett? He appeared in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi in the original Star Wars trilogy. He doesn’t have much dialogue in Empire and none in Return unless you include screaming. Reportedly, the character first appeared at the San Anselmo County Fair on Sept. 24, 1978,Continue reading “Boba Fett Gets His Own Show”
