Peace And Love To The Families Of Cleto Escobedo III And Jimmy Kimmel
I know a lot of people probably don’t like Jimmy Kimmel, but you have to show some empathy for the family of Cleto Escobedo III. The musician was the long-time band leader of Jimmy Kimmel Live! On Nov. 11, he reportedly passed away following a long-term illness. On the show on that night, Kimmel fought back tears with no luck as he recalled the life of Escobedo,Continue reading “Peace And Love To The Families Of Cleto Escobedo III And Jimmy Kimmel”
‘Jurassic World: Rebirth’ Is Endangered
When Jurassic Park III came out in 2001, I had just graduated from college and one day at my friends’ apartment we caught the first commercial. And I don’t remember who said it, but someone asked, “Why the hell do they keep going to the island?” Well, there are now four Free Willy movies.

No Kings Nor Dictators
I had high hopes of attending the local No Kings protest. But Mother Nature had other ideas as a thunderstorm came through at around the same time of the planned protest beginning at 10 a.m. CMT.

Vaya Con Dios, Sundance Kid!
I don’t think many would argue with me that Robert Redford was one of the last of the classic legends of Hollywood. At 89 when he passed in Provo, Utah, Redford started out at a different time in Hollywood. The Hays Code still kept writers and directors from doing fully expressing themselves.

Dating in the Internet/digital age seems to be worse. In the olden days if you bumped into someone you thought you’d like to go on a date with, it was usually easy to tell.

‘War Of The Worlds’ Is The ‘Plan 9 From Outer Space’ Of The 21st Century
The latest adaptation of The War of the Worlds is as terrible as you’ve heard. I think the best comment was when someone online said it should’ve been an e-mail. It sucks that H.G. Wells’ book fell into the public domain because his estate should sue the filmmakers. If you thought the 1996 version ofContinue reading “‘War Of The Worlds’ Is The ‘Plan 9 From Outer Space’ Of The 21st Century”
