Time Travel: How Do You Think It Works?

"As was said before in this topic we are traveling into the future right now," No, we're not. We are experiencing duration. The future and the past are merely concepts we have to express change th...

Time Travel: How Do You Think It Works?

I have been out-tooned by the Globe Trotters and pseudo-science. Perhaps if I threw in some big mumbo jumbo words like Qusi-tripometers and temporal vacuum fields I can get this discussion back on ...

Time Travel: How Do You Think It Works?

Traveling back in time appears to be a complete impossibility. While it is a FANTASTIC (and one of my favorite, truth be told) storytelling convention, the mechanics of it seem to be infeasible. Ti...

About Me:

Hey kids, it's me Carlyle. I'm just your standard, run of the mill animated movie reviewer. I enjoy watching movies, talking about movies, arguing about movies, dropping names of all my famous friends (that are in movies) and long walks on the beach. So if you're single, and a consenting adult (kids be sure to ask your parents what a consenting adult is), I'd love you to "Friend" me. You know you want to. Just click it. Click my little button. Come on. Click it. Just do it for daddy. Click me one time. Give me the the naughty "Friend"ing I deserve. Then be sure to check out my movie reviews and let me know what you think.

Just a few notes. I LOVE you guys. Absolutely love you. But due to my busy schedule as a freelance journalist I'm not always able to return messages or board posts. Trust me, I read THEM ALL, but I don't always (in fact I almost never) have time to respond. So please don't feel left out or offended if I don't get back to you. You're not being ignored. If you have a question for ASK CARLYLE, please leave it on the Comment Wall below. It makes it easier for me to find. Thanks for reading and watching guys. Our shadowy masters wouldn't sign our checks otherwise.
All Time Favorite Movies:
The Seven Samurai, Battle Beyond the Stars, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Star Trek 2: the Wrath of Khan, Lord of the Rings, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Man on Fire, Can't Hardly Wait, Sky High, The Dirty Dozen
All Time Worst Movies:
Gummo, The Doom Generation, and about a thousand films that only I and the filmmaker's family have seen. Recent worsts include Daddy Day Camp, Bratz, and Codename: The Cleaner, Witless Protection, Over Her Dead Body, Meet the Spartans, and The Love Guru. And coming soon: Disaster Movie!
Favorite Actors or Actresses:
Right now I'm keeping an eye on Justin Long and Amanda Bynes, both of whom are really great, but are waiting for their BIG HIT to convince everyone else. Jonah Hill is a current fave, and I will watch Samuel L. Jackson read the phonebook, fight snakes or even star in The Man 2. I might not like it...but I'll watch it. Ving Rhames, Kevin Spacey, Edward Norton, George Clooney, Brad Pitt all round out modern all time favorites. I'm also a huge Claude Rains fan, and yes, I'm big into Lee Marvin.

Carlyle's Convergence Day 2

Well Convergence is now in full swing and we've entered full on nerd-craziness. Day 2 involved being on two great panels - Why did they remake that? - in which 5 of us debated the merits of remakes and discussed our favorites remakes juxtaposed against those that deserve the most vitriol - and The Joy of Bad Movies - which was 6 folks sharing their favorite terrible films while discussing what makes a great bad movie. Each panel ran to its time without any floundering or time check… Continue

Carlyle parties down at CONvergence Day 1

HOLY CRAP! It is officially the morning of day 2 and last night, the slowest of the four days, was completely off the hook. After a day of catching up with old friends and the mass consumption of coffee from COF2E2 (merging with the coffee on an almost molecular level) I sat on one of the best panels of my life. SMACKDOWN! Here a bunch of writers and comedians voted on death match of Video Game Character vs Video Game Character to determine the all time baddest of the bad. Joining us after a whi… Continue

just saw Trans2 Carlyle and the one thing that stood out of the stuff you mentioned about Skids and Mudflap is how they could not read. that wasn't the case. yes they were a bunch of dumbasses that I had no idea why they were in the movie since they were barely in it aside from just walking around and acting like a bunch of dumbass brothers like I do with my own.

in the scene they mention how it was before their time and they are not the reading type. this is like how one of my brothers hates to read and you ask him to read old English or dare I say Greek (as i thought that with how they mentioned the writings since only the old transformer could read it since he was alive at the time) so he'll have no idea what it meant.

I have just finished two videos for scholarships!
However, I need your help. Since I uploaded my videos only a few days before the deadlines, I need to make up for lost time. So, if you could, can you watch the videos and tell me what you think. All the accumulated views should make up for lost time.

I prefer you tell me what you think on the websites provided, but if you don’t want to go through the hassle of signing up, I guess you can just tell me what you think of my videos through the comment box.

This is one is called The Toasty Torpedo... Mmmm.... I should be located somewhere near the bottom of the page.

Toasty Torpedo

This one, I would appreciate you leaving a comment on the website.

Always There When You Need It The Most

Thank you in advance.

Hey Carlyle,
I loved the new Star Trek and I loved The Wrath of Khan but I haven't seen any of the other original movies. I want to watch them but people have told me that they all aren't good. So far I've loved everything Star Trek I've seen and I don't want to end that. Which ones would you recommend I see.
