I was in the news business for over 10 years. One of the longest days was 9/11. I had been working two months at the Americus Times-Recorder and at the time was the only regular reporter on staff as two others had quit the month before going to other papers. While Americus, Ga. was hundredsContinue reading “‘September 5’ Gets The Scoop”

If America Was Ran As A Business, Trump Would’ve Already Been Fired
I was glad to see the “Hands Off” protests happening all over the country yesterday. There were protestors nearby my home in Tahlequah, Okla. as well as in my hometown of Calhoun, Ga. While they didn’t make much of a dent as other bigger cities, it shows you that the country is past fed upContinue reading “If America Was Ran As A Business, Trump Would’ve Already Been Fired”
‘The Day The Earth Blew Up’ Is Out Of This World In Its Excellence
Looney Tunes was the more mature answer to the Disney cartoons of the era. Before the spread of television in the 1950s and 1960s, the cartoons were shown in movie theaters. Even though the Hays Code kept a lot of subject matter very clean, Looney Tunes and its spin-off Merrie Melodies, seemed to mix jokesContinue reading “‘The Day The Earth Blew Up’ Is Out Of This World In Its Excellence”
‘Dexter: Original Sin’ Needs Repentance
I was a big fan of the original run of Dexter. Even when the series ran off the rails those last few seasons, I was still tuning in. There was really no way they were going to top John Lithgow as the Trinity Killer. But like a lot of people, I didn’t care for thatContinue reading “‘Dexter: Original Sin’ Needs Repentance”
‘Howling II’ Is Quite The Hoot
The Howling franchise has been one of the most strangest franchises in movie history. Along with the Hellraiser and Amityville movies, they seem to be trying to bank on name recognition. However, the first Howling movie divided people in 1981 but has received better recognition over the years. Directed by Joe Dante and a scriptContinue reading “‘Howling II’ Is Quite The Hoot”
RIP, Val Kilmer! You Were More Than Just A Wingman, Iceman
John Frankenheimer famously quipped, “Will Rogers never met Val Kilmer.” The late filmmaker and the recently deceased actor butted heads on the production of the 1996 movie The Island of Dr. Moreau that Frankenheimer immediately demanded Kilmer be taken off the set when he filmed his last scene. It was almost common issue with theContinue reading “RIP, Val Kilmer! You Were More Than Just A Wingman, Iceman”
Entertainment Business Bias On Full Display A Lot Lately
John Boyega, who played Finn in the last three Star Wars movies went on to say how racially bias the SW enterprise is. I have to agree with him. Over 10 years ago when the first trailer dropped, there was a lot of criticism over the fact that he was even in the movie. AndContinue reading “Entertainment Business Bias On Full Display A Lot Lately”
Peace And Love To Family And Friends Of Peter Arsenault
They say if you ever want to know about someone’s character, look at how they treated an animal. The shocking story of Chris Arsenault, who died in a fire in at an animal sanctuary in Long Island in New York, has made the rounds in the news the last 48 hours. The Happy Cat SanctuaryContinue reading “Peace And Love To Family And Friends Of Peter Arsenault”
‘Flow’ Mesmerizes Telling The Story Of Survival Among Many Animals
It’s hard to watch a movie like Flow without thinking of Life of Pi or The Bear, the 1988 French movie not the TV series. Both of those latter movies were directed by very skilled and talented directors, Ang Lee and Jean-Jacques Annaud, respectively. And they both featured movies that had animals as the mainContinue reading “‘Flow’ Mesmerizes Telling The Story Of Survival Among Many Animals”
No Fooling! ‘Coyote Vs. Acme’ A Go
It may be April 1 but this is no joke. For a while, it really did seem like that’s all, folks, for Coyote vs. Acme the live-action/cartoon animated hybrid feature that has been in limbo for the last two years. At one point, it was going to meet the same fate as Batgirl and ScoobContinue reading “No Fooling! ‘Coyote Vs. Acme’ A Go”
