Roger Corman Was The John The Baptist Of American Cinema

In the mid-1970s, Ron Howard was attempting to make a name for himself as a movie director after he had grown up over the years as a child actor. For a man who had appeared on two popular TV shows, been in the Oscar-nominated American Graffiti and even co-starred alongside The Duke himself John WayneContinue reading “Roger Corman Was The John The Baptist Of American Cinema”

‘Elsbeth’ Is The Show To Watch

Ok, so your dad is probably about ready to cancel Paramount Plus now that CBS has canceled CSI: Vegas and Blue Bloods. But have no fear, I’m sure as Tom Selleck hopes that Blue Bloods: The Next Generation or whatever it’s going to be called is set for next year or whatever. I mean, CriminalContinue reading “‘Elsbeth’ Is The Show To Watch”

‘Dawn’ Good Remake Of Dead Horror Classic Released 20 Years Ago

Twenty years ago when I first saw the commercials for the Dawn of the Dead remake, I groaned. The original by George A. Romero isn’t perfect but its few flaws are easy to dismiss for how great it’s made. Set mostly at a shopping mall in the suburbs of Pennsylvania, it was social commentary onContinue reading “‘Dawn’ Good Remake Of Dead Horror Classic Released 20 Years Ago”

‘Lisa Frankenstein’ Falls To Pieces

Diablo Cody has been one of those filmmakers who I feel everyone made a big deal about for a while and she read too much of her own press and still thinks it’s 2008. It might have seem odd in the 2000s for many people to show visible tattoos on their arms without thinking theyContinue reading “‘Lisa Frankenstein’ Falls To Pieces”

Tom Brady Roast Is Overdone

I was and probably will never be a fan of Tom Brady. I get it. He was the 199th person selected during the sixth draft pick. It’s the type of underdog story most people make movies about especially how Brady went on to win seven Super Bowl rings, six of which with the New EnglandContinue reading “Tom Brady Roast Is Overdone”

‘Miller’s Girl’ Is About As Erotic As Marjorie Taylor Greene Naked On A Cold Day

There’s been so much talk in the media about Miller’s Girl that I was expecting something more. For the most part, it plays like a Red Shoe Diaries episode that has been stretched out to an hour and a half and there’s no sex. Sorry. If you don’t want to read this blog any further,Continue reading “‘Miller’s Girl’ Is About As Erotic As Marjorie Taylor Greene Naked On A Cold Day”

‘Thanksgiving’ Makes A Huge Slash

Eli Roth is one of those filmmakers I really haven’t been impressed with and it’s mainly because he hasn’t done much to impress me. Cabin Fever and the first Hostel both had great ideas and premises but terrible executions if you’d forgive the pun. I don’t think anyone would understand why the kid with theContinue reading “‘Thanksgiving’ Makes A Huge Slash”

Do People Know What And Why They Are Protesting?

I’ve been kinda silent on the protests happening on college campus mainly because the whole Israeli-Palestine deal has been basically “Same Shit Different Day” for months. You can be both pro-Israel and pro-Palestine at the same time as long as you’re anti-Hamas and anti-Benjamin Netanyahu on the matter. I’m almost certain some Israeli are fedContinue reading “Do People Know What And Why They Are Protesting?”

Happy Cinco De Mayo

I want to wish everyone a Happy Cinco de Mayo if you celebrate. Unfortunately, if you’re celebrating today, it isn’t for Mexico’s Independence. Instead, it’s to celebrate Mexico’s victory over the Second French Empire at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. The Mexican army was led by Gen. Ignacio Zaragoza who later died from anContinue reading “Happy Cinco De Mayo”
