A lot of modern audience may not know much of the Our Gang/Little Rascals characters other than the 1994 movie, which only proved that any actor playing Alfalfa is a horrible person in real life. I mean, let’s face it. Bug Hall had every opportunity to be a better person than Carl Switzer and just decided to be a bigger assholeContinue reading “Our Gang’s Worst, Most Racist Short Premiered 85 Years Ago”

Happy St. Patrick’s Day And Happy 20th To The Crichton Leprechaun
I want to wish each and everyone a very happy and safe St. Patrick’s Day. You don’t need booze to celebrate today. It’s also the 20th anniversay of the infamous Crichton Leprechaun. On March 14, 2006, the local news in Mobile, Ala. reported that people in the Crichton neighborhood had reported seeing a leprechaun inContinue reading “Happy St. Patrick’s Day And Happy 20th To The Crichton Leprechaun”
Keep F@$%ing That Chicken In The Next Life, Ernie Anasatos!
Picture it, New York City 2009 Ernie Anastos is the anchor of WNYW, a Fox affiliate, when he is speaking with the weatherman Mike Woods during a broadcast doing the normal back and forth banter. He paraphrases the slogan made by Frank Perdue, a major chicken producer, who quipped “It takes a tough man to make a tender chicken” and says “It takesContinue reading “Keep F@$%ing That Chicken In The Next Life, Ernie Anasatos!”
How The Oscars (And Harvey Weinstein) Have Ruined Movies
It’s no coincidence that a convicted rapist like Harvey Weinstein is back in the news while Oscar weekend is here. Now, this isn’t another smarmy post by some prude for clickbait on how the Oscars are no longer relevant. We live in a world of pageants and Chamber of Commerce annual banquets. Everyone seems to be patting each other on the back for basically doing the same thing overContinue reading “How The Oscars (And Harvey Weinstein) Have Ruined Movies”
Happy Pi Day!
Today is Saturday and more important it’s Pi Day as in 3-14. The actually first 100 digits are actually 3.1415926535 8979323846 2643383279 5028841971 6939937510 5820974944 5923078164 0628620899 8628034825 3421170679. Even though I was good at math in school, I was never into the way other people I know are. Hope you all have a greatContinue reading “Happy Pi Day!”
Happy Birthday To My Furbaby
I want you to help me wish my furbaby, Skitty, a happy 13. I nearly lost her a few months ago as she was barely eating during much of the month of November. As Thanksgiving approached, I was a day away from taking her to the vet to have her put down. But then, as the weekend beforeContinue reading “Happy Birthday To My Furbaby”
Old Hat For ‘Friday The 13th Part VII: The New Blood’
The following post contains spoilers! After the fan backlash over Friday the 13th : A New Beginning which attempted to take the franchise in a different direction where Tommy Jarvis turns into a killer following too much trauma, Jason Vorhees was brought back from the dead in the sixth movie. Incidentally, the fifth movie made more money compared to its meager budget asContinue reading “Old Hat For ‘Friday The 13th Part VII: The New Blood’”
Six Years Ago Today We Started Taking Covid-19 Seriously
I was recently watching Outbreak. I think I had seen it once or twice between now and early March 2020. But it seemed like a strange coincidence the movie premiered on March 10, 1995. And I didn’t think it would actually turn into a fucking documentary. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declaredContinue reading “Six Years Ago Today We Started Taking Covid-19 Seriously”
‘War Machine’ Stalls On Cliches
The problem with a movie like War Machine is that it’s two different cliched stories that never do make for an entertaining feature. It’s basically An Officer and a Gentleman meets Predator. It’s the type of movie they used to release in the 1990s and 2000s in movies during the less active months before they were regulated to video rental shops and TBS’ Movies For Guys Who Like Movies. Part ofContinue reading “‘War Machine’ Stalls On Cliches”
‘Bugonia’ Is Terrible Drivel
Sometimes I feel a few filmmakers are just trolling us by making some of the worst movies imaginable only to have A-listers willing to appear in them and critics savor them. I’ll admit Yorgous Lanthimos is an acquired taste. Yet, I think he’s trying so hard to be the next John Waters, except Waters actually knew he was making bad movies and his throw it all on the wall attitude showed in hisContinue reading “‘Bugonia’ Is Terrible Drivel”
