Worst Movie Ever

I have frequently mentioned that the worst movie EVER made was a film called LaserBlast that I saw in 1978 in Key West, Florida where I lived at the time. It may have absolutely no redeeming value whatsoever even as a footnote to history. It was trying to cash in on the Star Wars craze. [...]

A Cat In Your Pants

Please vote on this LOLCatz. I don't want to mention that this is my friend Paul. So there is no way I will mention this is my friend Paul. I am certain Paul wouldn't want anyone to know that's him sitting on the crapper with a cat in his pants. So I will not post [...]

Science Fiction, Double Feature (RHPS)

Well in a post-birthday celebration, we had a great evening out. First, we (everyone except Karen and Timmy) ended up going to Renegade, the awesome BBQ restaurant at the Hard Rock. I tasted alligator — the first time I've ever eaten it. It tastes like ….. chicken …. and I wasn't even going to eat [...]

A Very Movie Weekend: Mamma Mia and The Dark Knight.

The concept of a film called "Mamma Mia and the Dark Knight" amuses me greatly. I wouldn't see it, but it amuses me. So on to the reviews of both.

Oi! Molest THIS!

So much to report of little to no merit. First, I wish to make you all aware of a particularly insipid piece of reality television called The Two Coreys which, last year, I watched one episode of before giving up forever. The show is, at best, a train wreck.
It stars Corey Feldman and Corey Haim [...]

Randomness Part Sept

First, a shout out to David Higgins for this awesome video of Pan American Airlines transatlantic flights back in the days when flying was enjoyable.http://www.archive.org/flv/FlowPlayerWhite.swfWoe is us for modern air travel. Spend the 12-1/2 minutes and watch this promotional film. It's a hoot, a gas, and so forth.
I spent quite a few dollars ($3.25) on [...]

Ding Dong, HD-DVD is Dead

For the first time, consumers have won in receiving a quality product instead of the cheaper product. Blu-Ray is here to stay and coming within the next [...]
