You’ll have to forgive my slight tardiness with this post. Most movie writers compile their year-end lists to coincide with the actual end of the year. That’s right, much like The Shitty Beatles, it’s not just a clever name. However, this weary film goer had a tremendously busy year-end (hence the slight lack in posts),…
Pressing On
Reason #191,804 why it’s difficult to take The Golden Globes seriously anymore:If these awards were really as important as The Hollywood Foreign Press and Dick Clark would have us believe – the ceremony would have gone ahead as planned, but with no cameras allowed.

Turn the Page
I’m getting to the point of antsy-ness I feel when forced to watch a romantic comedy I’d rather not be watching.

I’M NOT THERE
Once upon a time you looked so fine…threw the bums a dime in your prime…didn’t you?
Waiting For the World To Change
So for those of you who don’t know, I’m a rather avid DVD collector. I have more than anyone really needs, but I’d rather have a movie I know I love to distract me for two hours instead of my TV getting wasted on following some D-List celebrity around and watch them act foolish. One…
