Jim Henson has been dead now over 34 years. That’s almost as long as he was active. He passed away at the age of 53. Maybe it was because he had about 20 or so more years left in him and wasn’t able to fully see the advance of special effects by Industrial Light andContinue reading “‘Jim Henson Idea Man’ Is A Fluffy Love Letter To The Filmmaker/Puppeteer”

‘Under The Bridge’ A Horrifying Look At A Teenage Wasteland
What remains so fascinating about the murder of Reena Virk in 1997 is that it opened people’s eyes to the evils that young women can do. Even worse, those who had participated in her murder came from such varied backgrounds. There’s always been Mean Girls even before Tina Fey brought the phrase to the AmericanContinue reading “‘Under The Bridge’ A Horrifying Look At A Teenage Wasteland”
‘Spacey Unmasked’ Is An Eyeopener But Still Leaves Some Stuff Under Wraps
There just always something about Kevin Spacey early on that made him seem odd. He seemed to be perfect at playing characters you didn’t like no matter what. His role as a corporate stooge in Glengarry Glen Ross could’ve easily been dismissed. It was because he wasn’t as well known as the rest of theContinue reading “‘Spacey Unmasked’ Is An Eyeopener But Still Leaves Some Stuff Under Wraps”
‘Baby Reindeer’ Examines Realities Of Stalking And Cyber Harassment
If there ever was an example of the phrase, “No good deed goes unpunished,” then Donny Dunn and his experiences are a testament to that. Donny (Richard Gadd) is a bartender and aspiring comic in the London area who does one simple thing for a person having a bad day only to have it snowballContinue reading “‘Baby Reindeer’ Examines Realities Of Stalking And Cyber Harassment”
RIP Dabney Coleman
One of the earliest movies I remember seeing is 9 to 5, so I had known who Dabney Coleman was for a long time. His performance as the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot Frank Hart in the movie was so perfect. Coleman was able to balance the awful, cold-hearted sleaze with the sardonic, goofy, gullibleContinue reading “RIP Dabney Coleman”
‘The Stand’ Doesn’t Deliver As Well 30 Years Later
The Stand may be Stephen King’s best novel according to all of his fans and critics. The novel was published so early in his career as a published novelist that such a massive book could’ve very easily ended his career if it wasn’t so well-received. Set mostly in an apocalyptic world where a superflu calledContinue reading “‘The Stand’ Doesn’t Deliver As Well 30 Years Later”
‘Katt Williams: Woke Foke’ Moves At The Pace Of A Slow Poke
Earlier this year, comic-actor Katt Williams became a viral sensation when he spilled a lot of tea on a Club Shay Shay, a weekly podcast hosted by Shannon Sharpe. Williams went after other comics, Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer, with the rawness that comics like Bill Hicks, Sam Kinison, George Carlin and Richard PryorContinue reading “‘Katt Williams: Woke Foke’ Moves At The Pace Of A Slow Poke”
‘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”
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”
‘Frank Herbert’s Dune’ Looks Cheap And Only For True Fans
In the two months that Dune Part Two has been released, it’s grossed over $700 million worldwide. There’s even plans to make a third Dune movie which will be an adaptation of Dune Messiah. Forty years after the unfortunate David Lynch adaptation in 1984, it seems everything has been forgotten and forgiven. But one thingContinue reading “‘Frank Herbert’s Dune’ Looks Cheap And Only For True Fans”
